I'm back....

Ok, so it's been freakin forever...I'm sorry for that but it's been crazy around here for awhile...First off, we have all been sick off and on (croup, flu, you name it...) for at least 4 weeks...This last round has been the worst and i'm going on two weeks now, first the flu and now the sniffles. The kids seem to be doing much better (THANK GOODNESS) so I guess I better knock on wood right now!!! My brother Jake came to visit and that was so much fun...He stayed for 10 days and we just relaxed and had fun! I REALLY enjoyed myself and he did too. My sister had her baby a couple of days ago..WHOO-HOO!! Now, if only I could be there...BOO! Hopefully, I will be able to go home for a visit real soon. Her name is Brooklyn and she was 6 lbs. 11 oz. and 20 inches long. Stef is doing really well!! I'm proud of her!!

My very good friend Tabitha called me yesterday. It was so good because its been almost a year since I talked to her last. (Mostly my fault...I have problems calling people back when I say I will...I have come to terms with this and I am copeing...LOL!) I love that we can pick up a conversation like no time has passed....That is the makings of true friends...All of my real friends are like that....No matter how long it's been I can always just chat it up like I saw them the day before. I cherish my friends...Thank you for never giving up on me when I don't follow through like I say I will...Thank you for loving me for who I am and not trying to change me...I wish more than anything I could live closer to all of you, but I'm so thankful I can still talk to you over the internet or the phone...My college roomates and I are planning a get together this spring....I am beyond happy for this. I haven't seen 2 of them for a good 3 years....I've been able to visit Amber a few times (THANK GOODNESS FOR HER!! I'd be lost with her!!) since she lives about 8-9 hours away. I really hope we can all get together...I need a vacation!!! SERIOUSLY!!

I did a fun little layout yesterday...I loved how it turned out...I also have all my DT stuff I should post...ENJOY LOOKING!!
