Christmas to MLK Day!

OK - once again we are way behind! Since Christmas we have celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary (12/30), had a great New Year's eve celebration with Margie & Ronnie and Rob & Shelby and all of our kiddos at Margie & Ronnie's house. It was a lot of fun and the kids actually were awake when we left at 1:40 AM! I was amazed.

School is back in full swing and Reagan is at the BEST Montessori school - RisingSun. Miss Anna from last year is there and Reagan is so happy. We love Mrs Mara and have found a great new school family. The half day program works so much better than full days and I look forward to her being there next year for kindergarten as well.

Matthew is growing by leaps and bounds! He will be 9 months old in a few days. I cannot believe it! His new trick is pulling up! And he does it on everything. He also has cut his two top teeth - yes, all at once!

Taylor came out with great grades for the first semester of high school! We are SO proud of her! She actually made a 97 on her geometry final.

I am really, really trying to get my butt motivated on eating smart and exercise. I really fell off the wagon during the holidays and enjoyed baking all sorts of sweet goodies and biscuits and eating everything I wanted. I have a new blog that will feature my journey from the past through me getting to my goal of 140 pounds this year. Check it out - Shrinking the Fat.

Rod's parents are here visiting and we are in beautiful Sedona, AZ. We went and walked around Midgely Bridge at Oak Creek Canyon and had a very cold picnic at Slide Rock Park. We ended up sitting on the curb to stay in the sun and Matthew & Granny in the car!!!
