2010...where did you come from?!?!

Isn't it crazy how fast the years slip by the older you get? Our kids are growing like crazy..involved in everything...and life never stops. But we really wouldn't have it any other way I guess. Speaking of busy, that's what the last 2 weeks have been around our house. The kids last day of school was December 22rd. The beginning of Christmas break. Why do they call it a "break"? They should call it "Christmas crazy-tired-running around all over-never going to slow down time". That's how it feels sometimes at least. Our "break" began at 8:00 on December 23rd. For some unknown reason I thought that it would be a great idea to schedule dentist appointments for all the kids and myself at 8:00 in the morning the first day of our "break". I don't know why I did it...but I did. So we went with it. Found out that Cody had lost a filling and needed another. Can't leave out that it's a strong possibility that Halie will need braces on her front 4 top teeth in the next year or so. Thankfully Hanah rounded us out with a clean and squeaky "a-ok" from Dr. Brooks.

Then it was onto Christmas Eve. We didn't do a darn thing except bake cookies, go to church and watch it snow...and snow...and snow. It was a blizzard!! Crazy winds. Not a lot of snow...but a lot of wind. Unbelievable!! We seem to have lost our "For Sale" sign in front our house during the lovely breeze.

The week inbetween Christmas and New Years was busy also. Craig spent most of his time sitting in a tree hunting for the deer that never came. Poor guy. I think he had fun trying though. Hanah came down with the flu that totally knocked her for a loop. She thankfully recovered within a couple of days to participate in the Jones Christmas on New Years Eve.

All in all it was a great break. Busy but great. Lots of family time. That's what it is all about anyway. Hope everyone else had a wonderful "break".
