A New Year

I'm not making any promises, but I think I'll try to blog a little more:) I just had my 35th birthday yesterday. I was pretty spoiled! I got a beautiful grey pearl ring from my good friends, an awesome cookbook I'm excited to try, along with some very cool measuring spoons from Anthropology, 3 beautiful arrangements of fresh flowers, a new cute purse, new earphones, a cute pin, magnet, cards and visits from friends who stopped by, dinner out, and a late night shake date. Let's just say it was a good and busy day. Reading Facebook on your birthday is a lot of fun too...so thank you all for helping to make my birthday special! The gift I got from Kelly is what is inspiring me to update the blog...I got a new laptop. I've never had one, and I have to say it's kind of nice sitting here in bed, blogging! So, thanks babe! I love it, and I'm excited to go take the classes that will actually allow me to learn how to use it.

Tomorrow morning I get to fly to Utah. My sisters and brother and I are headed down to the SJC (San Juan County, for those of you not familiar with my lingo). We are trying to finally get the rest of my dad's house cleaned out and get it ready to sell...we should have a busy weekend ahead of us. It's funny though, because I was talking to my sister, Melanie, who also has four kids...how sad is it that cleaning out a house sounds relaxing to us?

I'm grateful that Kelly is willing to take a few days, to work from home and hold down the fort. He has the normal running around to school, plus 3 soft ball/t-ball games to wrangle them to, the opening ceremonies for softball/t-ball on Saturday, and then DJ-ing a dance for our stake on Saturday night. I picked a good man to be my husband, and a good dad for my kids!

Anyway, I hope you all didn't faint dead away from seeing an update to my blog:)
