Happy New Years Eve

This will be my last post of the year.....not that I had many this year, but nonetheless, it's the last one....and can you believe this year is already gone by...so many things happened that I wanted to document, but just haven't had the time to...

On a lighter note, I have photos of our newest addition to our family...Makayla Grace...she was just the most adorable little baby...quiet...no fussing....jsut blowing bubbles and wide eyed and bushy tailed....lol....

Christmas was just the greatest...I had all of the girls home for Christmas morning....not to mention the grandbabies were here also....and Bayleigh was jsut too cute....she came out and seen a bike sitting in front of the tree, and said, look mommie what Santa brought me...and then she laughed...priceless moments I tell ya....

We had a house full once again on Christmas...both families came for dinner and presents...it was so kaotic.....and once again, I ended up getting sick...yep, sick again...right now as I type this to you all....it seams like I am just destinned to be sick during the holidays and on our vacations....at least that is one thing I can count on...being sick....lol....

I want to tell you about what happened this morning on my way home from work...it's 6:30 in the morning, I'm chatting on the phone to a friend, and I'm just getting off the interstate at my normal exit. Well when I got onto the road there, I noticed a car on my side of the road, but it was facing me....I thought to myself that something must have happened...and at that moment, I see this truck on the other side of the road, hit the mediun and start doing flips in the air just in front of me. I was so stunned that this was happening....I stopped, as many others did, to make sure who ever was in it was ok...luckily, he was just shaken up....but that leads me to think that our life is just so precious....that in an instant it can all be taken away from us...if I would have just been a couple of seconds earlier, his truck could have hit me...not to mention, I could have been the one to hit the ice patch on the bridge....alot of could halves...but it still got me to thinking......

Well I hope that everyone has a wonderful New Years....here are some photos that were taken at Christmas, Halloween and then one of the girl scout troop doing a fashion show at one of the local stores at the mall.....

Happy Sunday from a cold and wet Charm City My day started at 3 am...I went off to bed really early last night as I wasn't feeling to well...it figures since I had the night off from work, I wasn't even able to stay up and watch nighttime t.v....bahh....but I have been able to manage to get 5 loads of laundry done, dishes, finisish up a layout, do another one and even make a Christmas card before anyone woke up this morning..so I feel like I'm in good shape for today....just need to work on a few other things for today... Our good news is that our daughter just had her baby last week. They named her Makayla Grace. As soon as I can I"ll upload some photos of her....she is jsut too darn cute....they are coming out at Christmas time to visit, so I'll be able to hold her....can't wait I tell ya..... Here's somethings that I have done these past FEW months....it's been really crazy around here lately and we just haven't had much "US" time.... these were made for a swap on Creative Express. I know that I'm really late on this, but I finally finished...and I hope that Becki likes them and will add them to her family albums....

Hello from Lil Ol Me

It's been so long since my last post. Things are just so busy here on the East coast that I think I can come up for air. I want to get back into daily postings again to keep all of my friends and family updated with what's going on here. So for now, hello and Happy Thursday. I'm off to take the little one to school here is a short. She has grown so much over the last year. She started band just a few weeks ago and is lovin it. She decided to play the trumpet. Just like dear ol Dad did when he was in school. Well I'm off and running for the day. I'll be back to share more of what has happened this past year with everyone later... Hugs from Charm City
