Boring Post

Sorry that I have not posted lately. I have a sister-in-law that is amazing with words and has something clever to say about almost everything. Her blog is entertaining and insightful. I read it often and think that she should pursue a job as a columnist among other things.
Here you will only find boring stories and updates about our wonderful, but boring life. My kids say funny things, but by the time I get to the computer I have forgotten what they said or what they were talking about when they said it.
Kinsey did accept Christ last week and we were thrilled for her.
I feel like I am getting old quickly because I keep saying is it January 15th already? January 25th already? It's not the 28th...is it? I have lost an entire month!

Is it really 2009?

Happy New Year! We are winding down Christmas vacation and gearing up for school to start back up tomorrow. Our vacation began on a sad note, but we have been able to end it with some much needed rest and relaxation. The kids have had lots of time to play with their things and I have had time to UN-decorate our house and put things back in place. I am always so excited to put up our Christmas decorations in November, but am equally glad to have our house back to normal. I look around and it looks dull and empty after the glitter and dazzle of the holiday decorations.
We all had a very Merry Christmas. As usual, the kids got more than they know what to do with, but this year they got several things we can all enjoy. A Wii, board games, books...
I have had to remind Chris (on several occasions) that the Wii belongs to the children. I think that he is having as much fun with it as they are. All 3 kids got several games that can be played without wanting to poke your eyes out!Bye-bye Hi Ho Cherry O! Fairwell CandyLand! Good riddance Ants in the Pants! While I think these are all great games for you to play with your children, I am excited that my time with them is over. We have gotten to play games like Uno and Yahtzee!
