baby jack is 8!!

i know it's cliche to say but i can hardly believe my baby is EIGHT! in some ways it feels like just yesterday that he joined our family and yet, we don't know life without him. this boy is unique. a funny, silly little man. loud? yes, very loud. he thinks it's SOOO funny when he does his "glass breaking" scream. not so much. but a sweeter, sillier boy you will not find. he has brought so much laughter to our home. noisy or not, we love this little one and we wouldn't trade him for a lifetime of quiet. yup, we'll keep him. we are blessed beyond words to have him in our family!

happy birthday Jesus!

merry, merry christmas friends.
now that i put our blog address on our christmas cards, i must post. no more of this every two week thing.(happy sister? :)) it is my goal, in 2010, that i post EVERYDAY. for christams, i bought MYSELF (as mothers, we do this)a kit from Becky Higgins called 'project 365'. in a nutshell, it will journal our life in 365 days. i have been coveting my friend Becky's 'project' since last year. last year, it sold out but yeah for me,this year i hopped on the bandwagon in time! i will stick with it. i will stick with it. i WILL STICK WITH IT! so here's to new beginnings....


if you are reading this, chances are, you have our blog address from our card or you're a 'regular'. in that case, you are important to me. (if you found this by accident, stop stalking me. :)) it is my prayer, for you my friends, that this year you may come to know Jesus better. that you will embrace every moment you have here on this earth. in an instant, your life can change.
thank you for checking in with us. may God bless you in rich ways this year....

out of order!

i never claimed to be a great blogger. especially in the way of ORDER! here i was, being all 'organized like'. typing up all my entries, then i was going to put them in order of the way they happened. well, didn't happen. now that i've posted i can't figure out how to reorganize. so,please start about 5 posts down and read up!
you can never say life with me is ordinary. stick with me kid,i'll figure out how to mix you up! it's my gift to you.
