Blogger Issues & New Years

I have been having issues with my blog formating since Christmas so that is why it is taking me forever to post anything because honestly I started the Christmas post probably 15 times before I posted it and it still didn't turn out how I wanted.  I am not sure what the dealio is but whatever. 

 
New Years Resolutions:
  • Lose 30 pounds
  • Work less and play more
  • Save money for a real vacation

Christmas Card Photos

Here is a preview of some of the great shots we got of the kiddos in our attempt to get a shot for the Christmas card. Yes we currently have 2 trees up. We have a 3rd one too but no where to put it but there will soon be a 4 foot pink tree since I know a little girl who wants one.

Thankful

In honor of the big day here is my list.

An adoring husband who puts up with all my craziness and is always there to support me 100%.

My 2 beautiful, sweet, silly children that fill everyday with lots of laughs, hugs, kisses, giggles, and happiness.

Our families. We may have our ups and downs but I love them all and am thankful that they are in my life because without them I wouldn't be the person I am today.

My job. I get to work with amazing people everyday doing an amazing job helping mold our future. Even though there are many days I feel beat down by everything going on in education but in the end I love my job and I love my students.

Our good fortune. We have been lucky to be fairly healthy this last year and even though we hit some rough patches financially we have stayed afloat.

I love my life and even though things don't always go exactly as I want I know I have it really good and I am thankful for all the love in my life.

Last Week

Last week we went to the park for our friend's birthday. The kids had a blast and Milo went swinging in the real swing for the first time. He loved it. Eve finally enjoyed the swings too. (She has taken longer than most kids to build up the courage to try out the toys at the park.)

Life as we know it

Life has been crazy busy lately. Adam got a temporary job that could last for at least 10 months which means he will keep looking for a new job so hopefully we will be good come next year. This job offers a ton of overtime. He can work 12 hour days and 8 hours on Saturday and this week he could even have worked on Sunday. They had to do mandatory 10 hours of overtime this week. So Adam is putting in mad amounts of overtime which pretty much means my days are filled with work and then taking care of both kids all night. Usually they are both in bed by the time he gets home. I miss spending time with him but at the same time like the idea of building our savings back up more quickly.
