Here WE Go

While I love blogging & keeping up the chapters in our life, I haven't found a good time to consistently blog about our household.  The experiences & lessons of life taught me to do less & spend more time with my little ones, with my husband, & just enjoy life. 

 

But I can't quit...journaling here really helps me with our Picaboo year book.  So, I'm going to restructure & reorganize things to make it easier for me to blog. 

 

We started the year with coughs & sniffles.  Thankfully we have not joined the Flu Club.  I worked 5-6 hours each day for 2 weeks during the boys' break.  It was a balancing act, but they truly enjoyed time with Russell.  Our cousins hosted a New Year's Brunch which was loads of fun with games & yummy food.  Then we came home & enjoyed a quiet evening together....thinking about the new year ahead. 

 

Since then we've visited the Austin aquarium, had a sleepover with cousins, gone to a funeral, started school again and have begun planning our 2015 travels.

Breakfast together after the sleepover...and for the record, all 4 kids slept soundly all night long.  I'm the one who didn't....I tossed & turned, wondering when one of them was going to get up & wake the rest of the household!  Of course!  I sure wish I could quite worrying about things...
