I had heard about Pinterest for a while from friends, but was hesitant to join something else as I feel like I don't have much time for the computer these days. I am already on facebook and that, along with trying to keep up with my blog is about as much time as I have for the computer.

We had such a fun day that I don't want to skip sharing about it.But first... Life has been busy here. When I say busy, I don't mean busy with a full calendar of activities. I mean busy just keeping up with life.

What I planned on writing seems totally unimportant. Life seems to stop when I hear about a little girl loosing her battle to cancer. My heart is aching for this family. I can only imagine the pain that they are feeling as they walk through these days ahead of them.This is Piper.

I initially started looking to buy one, but my husband suggested I look to make one. After a little research on the internet I came across this blog and this cute idea!

Dreaming about my prince charming, white picket fence and lots of kids around my table. I dreamed of a comfortable home where love was bursting out of the seams. A home where everyone could be themselves and be loved for who they were. A home where they could walk in the door and be safe and know that they are valued and important.

I have decided to put it on hold for a bit, as I am hoping to get some good family pictures and pictures of the kids this spring. I want to be able to put recent pictures on here as a header and outside pictures always seem to come out so much better then inside.

I am getting excited about my blog again and I am feeling like I desperately am in need of a blog makeover! A good while back, a reader had offered to give my blog a facelift. At the time we were really busy and I never got back to her with the info that she needed to get started.

My sister Stacey and brother-in-law Joey welcomed their 4th child, Andrew James into the world on December 2nd at 3:20p.m., weighing in at 7lbs. 9ozs. I had the privilege of being in the room when he was born and it was an amazing experience!

If you're still reading you deserve an award for being loyal to us :). I really am going to start posting again on my blog though. I think about doing it often, but then when I have the chance to sit down while the kids are sleeping I always end up watching '24'. If you've watched that series, you know, it's totally addicting!!

So much about this blog reminds me of Abbey's leukemia so I have gone back and forth with whether or not to continue using it since we have done our best to move past that chapter in our lives. These past several weeks have been crazy though and I wanted to update about all that has happened as I know we have family and friends Unknownnoreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349618533685433606.post-89287825347120395942011-09-13T21:23:00.013-04:002011-09-15T23:09:01.679-04:00It's Been a While!So to say that I've been bad at keeping up with my blog would be an understatement!
