I have been meaning to start a blog for awhile now so that my friend Kelly can "keep in touch" with my family like I do with hers. I read her blog almost daily and enjoy knowing what is going on with them while they are away from "home". So this blog is partly for Kelly and partly for my kids. I want her to feel as much a part of my family as I feel with hers and I want my children to remember all of the amusing experiences of our day to day lives. So thanks for encouraging me to get started Kelly...even though I'm pretty sure it has taken me about a year to get going.
