Tomorrow is the big day...

Happy New Year everyone. Only 2 hours 45 mins. to go. Well, my New Year's Resolution is to be a better blogger - tomorrow is my big day. Hopefully, I will be true to my word.

Nothing much to post since my last post. We had a great Christmas. Surrounded by family and friends - isn't that the best part. Unfortunately, we have been plagued by some sort of illness, or several of them. Casey, Zach and I have all been hit. So far, Catie and Bryce are staying safe...I hope that continues. Casey is really down right now. Hopefully a good nights sleep will make the New Year a better year.

HAPPY 2009!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Being as I have already mentioned...I am not an expert blogger, I cannot figure out how to just have our Christmas card be there without the blank stuff at the bottom. Hopefully, however, you got the idea. Merry Christmas to all out there. Personally, I can focus on having a Merry Christmas - AFTER I finish all the wrapping. Luckily, the shopping is done. I don't want to brave the stores again...yesterday was pretty hairy.

It's me again...

Well, I am trying this again. Am I the world's worst blogger, or what? Weekly updates and a pretty design is my New Year's Resolution.

Going into this Christmas week...I am the most unprepared I have ever been. At least in the past, I had a plan, and knew what I had to get. This year, I am really stumped. Zachary is usually my easiest, this year, he is the hardest. Casey is always the hardest, but luckily we decided just to do stockings for each other this year.

As for the family...we are all doing well. Had a rough patch, but we are all regrouped, and I think our little world on Utt Drive is back under control. Bryce just got a new job at 30 Min. Photo - he will be making a lot of money, too. He got lucky with this one. Zachary is working hard in school and water polo; he is doing SoCal a club team for the off season to improve his game for his senior year. Caitlyn is all adjusted to middle school. She made Honor Roll for the 1st quarter. She will be going to a dance after school tomorrow...then they are all on Christmas break.

Fortunately for our family, the economy's down turn hasn't affected Casey's business. He is as busy as ever. He had a couple of rain days this week, but he has work lined up for weeks to come. I hope all of you are surviving the economic mess OK.

I am signing off for now, but I promise...I will be back. I won't go months again...hopefully, just days.
