We can’t believe that another year has passed us by! Time for our annual Christmas letter and family update! We took our 1st family vacation with Super Girl this year! It’s been a long time since we went on an official vacation! In September, we went to
We also have been doing more work on our home. In late August, we put sod in our front yard; and in late October we extended our driveway with concrete being laid all the way to the corner. So our front yard is 1/3 grass and 2/3 concrete! It really looks great. We have plans for a vinyl fence around the back yard and rose bushes along the east side of our front yard. I also hope to be able to put some raised beds for a vegetable garden in the back yard.
Tall Boy is still working at his same job. They switched to a 4 day work week and he seems to enjoy that better. He went hunting every weekend in October and shot an elk on the 19th of October. Yippee! Meat for another year! The elk from last year ran out shortly after he brought home the new elk. Good timing!
Oh how time flies! I turned 29 this year! YIKES! That means I’ll turn 29 again next year! Just kidding, I’m looking forward to my 30’s! I have seriously slacked on the scrapbooking front this year, but have renewed my efforts lately and started up again. Thank you Tasha for helping me get my mojo back!!! I have also been working on losing weight since mid September. I purchased a Body Bugg through my gym, 24 hour fitness. I have had a lot of success with this program. I am well on my way to my ultimate goal of weighing 160 by my 10th wedding anniversary at the pace of about 1/2 - 1 lb per week. Slowly but surely…that’s my motto. In other news, I have been thinking about going back to school more and more lately. I keep coming back to teaching Math and Sign Language, but I’ve recently felt that it should be in Middle School instead of High School. ! I have also been busy with Super Boy's class as a room mom. It is so fun to see how Super Boy flourishes at school.
Speaking of Super Boy, he turned 6 on April 2nd. He loves his teacher and school in general. His teacher is amazing. He loves doing homework, math box activities, making up songs and games, and playing video or computer games. He comes up with ideas and experiments that are interesting to say the least! His mind and body are growing by leaps and bounds. He has such a sweet spirit still and I hope that never goes away. He is more frustrated with Super Girl lately, but it’s just because she wants to do everything like Super Boy does. He is a great big brother and a joy to us!
Super Girl is getting so big! She turned 2 on September 1st. Her vocabulary has exploded since we had tubes put in her ears back in June. She loves dogs, monkeys and elephants. She loves to dress up and play outside in the dirt. She is so anxious to go to school! She cried every time Super Boy went to school in the beginning of the school year, and now has her very own backpack too! She is learning more letters, shapes and numbers everyday and has started potty training too. She is getting so big!
Well, that’s about all for us.Thanks for stopping by our blog! Please continue to follow us throughout this next year.
Love,
Tall Boy, Scrap Happy Mommy, Super Boy and Super Girl
