Ok were back

Alright I know I have been a terrible blogger but I promise to blog more.
We are in full swing of the holiday but luckily we are almost ready for christmas other then baking and getting a tree.We spent wednesday putting up lights outside before the snow hit and got the house ready for thanksgiving.Thursday we were up early waiting for family and watching thanksgiving parade on tv.We had a big breakfast then it was time for the men and kids to play football,basketball and soccer while us women cooked.Friday I got up about 7 and hit a few stores and was home by 10,Then it was time to decorate inside and order pizza and wings for dinner.Yesterday we all went and ran/walked off our thanksgiving dinner in a memorial 5k for a friend we lost on 9/11.After we were lazy and watched christmas movies.Today is just a laundry and pick up the house to get ready for a week back to work and school and maybe even some playing out in the snow.
Will be back later this week to catch up on more blogging.How was everyone elses weekend? do you go ouy shopping black friday?

Back to blogging-summer break

I almost forgot I had started this blog and now that school is out and I am home for the summer I need to get back to it.We are in the full swing of summer already.Kenzie is on a mission trip until friday and Chase is busy playing on his summer baseball team and spending time in the pool.No big plans for the summer just sticking around home and the area and doing fun things.The most exciting thing I have planned is going with my mom to see Julie Andrews speak at chautauqua institution on friday.I grew up watching sound of music so I am very excited about seeing her.

My heart is hurting

I sat up late last night thinking about the community in Chardon Ohio with my heart aching and tears rolling down my cheeks.I can't imagine what these families and students are going through.All I want to do is wrap my arms around those kids and tell them it will be ok but unfortunatly we live in a society of crime,violence and guns.As I tucked my kids in bed tonight we prayed for the families of the victims,the students and the family of the shooter.I pray god can bring them peace and understanding.

Happy Saturday

We are having a quiet day here at home.Hubby is at work,Chase is at the movies and Kenzie is at the ice arena skating with friends so I am home by myself catching up on the never ending laundry and cleaning the bathrooms.Tonight were hitting aldi's and sams club for goceries.We got about 5" of snow last night so I am hoping to go sledding in between church and the kids youth group event tomorrow.Hope everyone is having a great weekend

Busy week

I am so glad it is friday tomorrow.Even with the day off on monday all we have done is run from one place or another all week.We have a pretty quiet weekend planned other then having 5 5th graders at our house tomorrow after school to finish their science project.Tomorrow eveing were getting back into friday evening family movie nights which we haven't done since christmas time.Saturday I hope to get some grocery shopping done and restock the chest freezer.I hope to be able to play around on here and get some pictures up so the blog isn't so boring

New at this
