update

I should probably do this every day but I have always stunk at the journaling thing even though it has often been a goal of mine. Well, let's start with family. Tomorrow is Blake's first birthday!!! I am making sure all cameras are charged, cleaning the house, putting stuff away. . .it is crazy what you go through just to have a small gathering of like 40 people in your home. lol. I don't think we will all fit but in Blake's short life he has accrued a large crowd of admirers. What can I say? He is almost walking, he does great with his walker. Trinity and her neighbor friend Noah have been having a blast with teh finally warming weather. We played outside for almost two hours today and it wore trinity out! Trinity has a new fish tank and we got her a frog for it. it is so adorable, I love watching him swim around. She also has a new imaginery friend; a robot named Plex. He goes everywhere with us and she reminds me not to step on him. It's pretty funny. Jeremy's company continues to grow slow and steady; I can't ask for much more. (benefits, retirement, whatever. . .) He has an office and an employee and it seems to be working so far. He says he wants to get a new car but we will just see about that. We go to home group every other friday and I have a new friend at church; stephanie. She is my "mentor". It has been fun so far, we are trying to begin a purposeful relationship with goals like encouraging each other in our prayer lives and so forth. The family keeps busy with world of warcraft, scrapbooking, reading, and playing at the park. (Not to mention lot's of shopping with not much buying, mostly just to get me out of the house). So that is the quick update. Maybe I will get around to filling you in on other stuff later but gotta go for now.

Don't worry about *trying* to journal. Just do it if you feel like it! When I *try* to do stuff I might do it more consistently in a way it's sort of painful and then when I *want* to do it I won't because it's not on the schedule or something. It's energizing to do things that you want to do though! So... just blog when you want to! I've felt like talking a lot lately because I can't get out often so that's why I blog so much, but it's just because I feel like it.

Anyway, I do check your blog! (Just so you know there is someone "listening") :) I check everyones blog nearly every day from the links on mine. Heh, I've started taking pictures just for the blog sometimes too. I might not scrapbook all the ones that I post. :)

Oh! And I just finished this awesome scrapbook for a gift to a friend of mine, but I'm saving the pictures for juuuuust in case I'm one of the winners in the scrapbook contest so that I can either get paid for them publishing my ideas or for putting up on the "masters" blog that I'd have to participate then. If I don't place then I'll just put them up on our blog after I find out. :)

Anyway, I'll email you a few pictures just for now. ;)
