Been WAYYYYYYYY to long.....




OK, so I didn't say I was good at this blogging thing, so I apologize that I have not updated it since July :( but, that's life with 3 little ones!! Anyway, Happy New Year to everyone! Hope you had a great Christmas and are off to a good 2008. We stayed here for the holidays and although we missed our families and friends it was very nice to just relax at home and the kids had a great time playing with their new Santa goodies. Harrison got and excavator, a concrete mixer (his favorite) and other assorted cars and trucks. Allison got her first American Girl doll - a just like me doll with red hair and hazel eyes. She is soooooo excited!! We had told her that she couldn't have one until she was 6 (that would be Oct. 2008) but I guess Santa missed that conversation!! Jacqueline also made out from Santa having a bit of a hearing problem - she got an iPod, yes a brand new RED nano engraved by Santa!!!! Gotta love that Santa Claus!! Jack got a kegerator (for those of you who were as naive as I was, that is a refridgerator for a keg of beer complete with tap!!) Needless to say he is a pretty happy guy!! I can't complain either. Jack surprised me and bought me a new diamond. It is a past, present, future ring with the 3 stones (one for each kiddo he says). It is beautiful and I was speechless (those of you who know me know that that is a feat in itself!!) So, we really had a great Christmas here. For New Year's Eve, we had a party at our house - an 80's theme party. Boy, it was a blast. Everyone had to dress a la 80's and bring a picture of themselves from the 80's for our "wall of shame". Jack downloaded 80's music as well. It was a lot of fun. Now the kids are back to school (Jacqueline 2nd grade, Allison Kindergarten) and tomorrow starts the cheerleading season!! Both girls are cheering this year and taking dance classes. They are very cute!! I am posting some pictures and will try to remember to update a bit more often, especially since cheer season is here!! Happy New Year!!
