{2009}

Well 2009 has started off with a bang! 
We got another 8 inches of snow (now it's raining) then this morning at 4:30 a.m. Parker informed me that he felt like he was going to puke, and he did I guess he ate too much junk food last night :) 
Then at 6:10 a.m. our power went out, it was only out maybe an hour so it wasn't too bad. But when I got up this morning I had this gnawing feeling that if this is how the new year is going to start off whats the rest of the year going to be like? Should be a fun ride.
Now I need to do some flight of the bumble bee packing, we are headed to my parents today, my cousin Sarah who I took engagement pics for a while back is having her wedding reception in Tri-Cities so off we go!
Should be a fun quick trip. We'll be back on Saturday only to have Lloyd turn around on Sunday & leave me for 4 days while he goes to Texas for work stuff. Should be a flaming good time being a single mom of 5 and all..... Anyway I'll be back later!


Hope everyone had a great New Years Eve last night! Happy 2009!


Ps. The Christmas tree got "put down" on December 29th. May she rest in peace. ;)

  4. My Parker puked last night. . .while at the New Year's Eve party at the neighbors. . . on their couch & carpet!!! How embarassing! And poor Parker. He's better today but so wiped out he's already sleeping. Hope your Parker got better quickly as well.

  6. ♥ No fun have sick kids. Hopefully it was just the one time... I hope the weather is good for your quick trip and the weather in Texas should be nice for Lloyd compared to OR. Too bad he can't bring any of that back with him! :)

  14. Just look at it as you had a bunch of bad things happen at once and get out of the way so it's smooth sailing for awhile. :) Have a safe trip.
