Updates...

Wow!  Has it really been almost three months since I've posted?!  I guess life got in the way like it always does!  Since I've last posted....

• I graduated and recieved my certificate in phlebotomy (blood drawing) -yay me!
• LKS graduated from her program and recieved her degree - yay LKS!
•  We've had 4 visits from family
• My house got really messy (okay, it's always been messy, lol)



Lots more has happened, but I can't think of it all right now.  The kids and I just returned from a LONG, fun, LONG, exciting, did I mention LONG, weekend in Pennsylvania at Blue Knob State Park on Monday.  Me and my kids; Leah, Gene and Sarah; Matthew, Taya, and their kids; Dad and Kay; Gramma Baldwin; and Mom and Tim all went camping together.  Yup, two sets of divorced and remarried parents who hadn't seen eachother in oh.....eight years or so, and my Dad and Kay, and Gramma, had NEVER met Tim.  Considering that fact (yikes!), it was a really fun time and I'm so glad we went.  The kids all got a chance to hang out together, and mommy had a chance to relax and not worry about both boys 24-7.  Yes, there were many awkward moments, but isn't life all about those awkward moments? 

No??  Oh. 

Oh, well....lol!

So now that I have mountains and MOUNTAINS (there literally is a mountain of clothes right now in my laundry room!) of laundry to do, what did I decide to do instead?  fart around on the computer, yeah!  That's a good idea.  Maybe not.  I hear the laundry calling my name.  I think it's actually starting to creep out of the laundry room, slowly so I won't notice of course, and wind itself around my legs.  Ok, laundry, OK!  I'm COMING!  Sheesh, that laundry is impatient.  Alright, blogging can wait, back to real life. 

No fun.  But here's some fun pictures!  And oh yeah, I turned 29 again-hah!

Well, it's been too long....whoopsy. I'm suffering from insomnia tonight, and can't find anything else to do that won't make any noise. I can hear the poor boys in their room coughing off and on. They both have had a cold for almost a month now. I think maybe they keep passing it back and forth, yuck.

So if you look at the new format for my blog, you'll see the lovely picture of our family, that looks like it was taken by a pro...but it wasn't! It was me! (I'm very proud, can't you tell?) I actually convinced Adam to go out to Stoney Creek Park in Goldsboro and take some family pictures! Yay me! Even though I'm sure the $200+ sticker price at the Wal-Mart photo place, which I'm assuming is the cheapest around, helped to convince him too, I'm just going to keep on thinking it was my charming ways (snicker snicker......). Anyway, I've been wanting to take family pics for a long time, and HOW they got done is no matter. So there. :)
