Hi everyone!  I hope you all have a nice New Years.  We didn't do much, the two older kids were at MIL's house and Jason, Dad, Tommy and I just stayed at home and watched movies on TV and we went out and bought Fantastic 4.  We watch the ball drop in NYC and then headed to bed shortly after.   I really pray that 2006 is a better year for us all!  Seems like my family and SOO many other people last year was just hit so hard with one tragedy or another.

Dad was here for the holidays and he went back home on the 5th..  or at least tried to.  LOL  I got a call on Thursday from dad telling me that he was broken down in the middle of the desert on his way home.  *sigh*  He said he was going to check things out see if he could fix it with what he had and he would call me back.  Well I didn't hear from him for 3 hours.  I was getting a bit nervous.  I finally heard from him and lets me know that I needed to go rescue him and what parts I needed to bring.  So... I brought out the parts and water since it was the water hose that popped, and he got it fixed and I followed him home to make sure that he didn't have anymore problems.  It is a 5 hour drive from my house to his and he broke down just about halfway there!  I figured since I was driving out to bring him parts I mind as well stay and visit with my Gramma and Aunt that live out that way too!  So Tommy and I stayed the weekend.

As you guys can see I decided to change the look of my page! I play around with it alot and finally got it to where I like it. Oh and you also can now "subscribe" to my journal.  Up there on the right side there is a place to put your email address and you will get email notices when I post a new entry.  I also FINALLY put a more recent pic of the kids up there, but even that one was taken back in August!  *yikes*  It just doesn't seem like that pic was taking all that long ago.  Time is just going by WAY too fast for my taste.  I can't believe that Tommy is going to be 1 years old in just a few weeks.

Did anyone make any New Years resolutions?  I HATE resolutions, but I am determined to lose weight this year!  One of my best friends has lost 15+ lbs now and I am so inspired by her.  I REALLY need to get on it cause my brother is getting married in October and I SOO don't want to look like a huge blob at his wedding.  So... starting this week I am going back to the gym and going to moderate my eating.  I have about 80lbs to get to my idea of what I want to be at.  Wish me luck!  LOL

Well I think that is all for now.  Please continue to pray for baby Christopher.  If you have time check out the blog that his family it keeping.  The link is in my list of links.  God bless and look forward to hearing from you all.
