What I've Been Up To

So, it's been awhile.  A loooooong while.  Six. Months.  That is waaaaay toooo loooong!  I have missed my bloggy peeps so much, but it seems every single time I sit down to write a post, something comes up and I have to stop writing.  I am only supposed to work four hours a day, but between subbing for other teachers in the afternoon, PTO meetings and household errands, it's really hard to sit down and get to write.  So, here it goes.

Wanna know what I've been up to for the last few months?  I would love to tell you about my tour through Italy and other exciting adventures, but when I look back to the last six months, not much has happened but everyday stuff.  So, here is my very exciting look back.

In September, my oldest baby, "C", turned 15.  We celebrated with pie.

We also had new puppies, only two this time.

Bella went to a sweet family in Texas.

This is Jake.  He stayed with us.

In November, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving with some of our cousins from Texas.  We haven't gotten together for years so it was a blast to see them.  These three little cousins had a blast together.

On Christmas Day, we had record snowfall in Arkansas.  It was the first white Christmas in 80 years.  We got a total of 9 inches at my house.

In January, I turned 42.  No pictures necessary.  I'm trying to forget it happened.

February has been a pretty good month.  Hubby and I celebrated 12 years of marriage.  What did we do?  Not a durn thing.  We didn't go out to eat.  We didn't have a date.  E had dance and I think we ate leftovers.  My life is so exciting.  For Valentine's Day my sweet Hubby gave me my favorite chocolate truffles.  YUM!  I made him his favorite cake.  Again, no going out on a date.  ugh!  I need a nanny.  Wanna know who DID have a date with my Hubby?

Last but not least, the 1st grade at school has been reading and studying The Wizard of Oz.  On Friday, they had a Wizard of Oz parade at school E, of course, insisted on being Dorothy. 

The Dorothy with her face showing is E.  The other Dorothys were adorable too, but I didn't have permission to print their pictures. 

So, that's pretty much the last six months in a nutshell.  It doesn't sound like I've been busy at all, does it?  Oh well.  Hopefully things will be slowing down soon and I can get back to blogging on a more regular basis.  I can't wait to catch up with everybody!
