Just Me!!

Christmas Eve- Wegley Celebration It was our first Christmas over at the new house. Surprisingly we all fit in their new house. Apparently mom had asked the guy next door if we are too loud when she has the family over but they said they couldn't hear a thing. So dad tested it....he gave us all kazoos for Christmas! It was awesome. We hummed several Christmas songs and near drove mom mad with them. She kept saying, "I told you that was a bad idea Harry!" It was MY favorite gift because it got us all doing something together--ha ha ha! Valerie got a Kearse jersey, Ethan a soccer ball, and Charlie a large stuffed lion from G+G. We played the adult exchange gift with them and everyone seemed to have a good time-enough that they want to do it again next year. We gave mom and dad a last minute gift of folding chairs, and socks for all the girls. Mark and I walked away with a diffuser and a nice Seahawks Blanket for our exchange gifts.       Christmas Day- Thanks to Charlie...

 I've been using the Google Calendar for the past six months and I have to say that I love it. It allows me to color code events, has spontaneous pictures for things, and remembers what/where I'm supposed to be each day. Valerie and Mark has access to the calendar so about a week before hand the schedule gets pretty crazy. I wish it had a task manager because I need one of those every day! Sunday we were able to finally go to an appointment I made two weeks ago at iFly. We purchased the gift certificate two years ago for Christmas for Valerie. Geez, bad parenting huh?           Thursday started my rotation off right by spending the day with my work family learning Epic Storkboard 2015! I tried to make it fun by charting a love child between me and Ian Somerhalder. Our baby ended up being 10lbs 7 oz and 24 inches. Yikes       This is how we felt at the end of training...ha ha ha!      Valerie and her friends at Senior ...

I had a long blog post completed last night that somehow disappeared. Maybe it was for the best as I had a lot to say and many disappointments to reveal. Problem is, I can't hide much so I'm pretty sure everyone knew how I felt yesterday. Yesterday was hard! It kept my poor husband up till 2 am...relaying my whole week of disappointments. I had no idea how much everything was affecting me. I love talking to him. He makes sense out of all my concerns. I feel sorry for people who don't have someone like Mark. He is my best friend, the only one I can trust my feelings with, and that is completely apparent during this past week.  Easter sucked. I'm left hoping that Charlie didn't notice and that spending time with her cousins allowed her to be blinded to the other family squabbles that was happening. I hope that this was not the case when I was little. Most of my family values comes from the tight knit family I experienced when I was younger. We spent Sunday's sitti...

Two seconds later she said, "I love this ride!" Blood Moon Nick Nortons' Magic Show Breakfast Burritos  Playing in the tent..no! Windmills or Aliens? Silverwood   this year was different than last time. We had more time with Kat and Jer, no little kids, and not enough time together because of conflicts in both families schedule. We did get to enjoy time with them on Friday at Silverwoood and then after the guys got back from golfing on Saturday. We left earlier than planned on Saturday because I just wasn't feeling like camping another night in a place that was so dusty and dirty and I worried that Val wouldn't get home in Time on Sunday for her FOB concert. It felt right. I packed us up Saturday morning after spending a good part of the morning discussing the meaning of  Life  ...
