I'm BACK!

Well..... I can't even pretend that I don't realize how much I have MASSIVELY slacked at this blog thing lately..... I know have (I apologize to the readers I used to have!) I have no excuse other than sheer laziness! So bad in fact that it took me about two weeks to realize that my entire blog had been deleted because the email I had used to set it up.... had been deleted to. HA kinda funny if you think about it! 
Anyway......I vow, today to make more of an effort to blog A LOT more! I am also making some changes from the last blog.... this one will be more about me (so I am sure it will be A LOT more boring! HA!), and it will not be private unless it becomes an issue. Hopefully not! 
So... updates???? HMMMM the kids are doing great! Brian is growing like a weed, David and Nathan are doing great in school. Jared is struggling a good bit, but I have faith in him. I know he is capable of the work, we just need to find a way to help him get motivated. 
I Just finished my 4th term in school, scary to think I am almost half-way through. That term was definitely one of the more trying ones. I passed with one "A" and two "B"s. Not bad, but I was still upset. I really busted butt this term and it didn't really seem to get me anywhere. But this just shows me I need to try harder! I applied for a job a few weeks ago that I was really excited about. My professor even put in an awesome word for me...... but I got a call back that I was over qualified for the job. I won't lie, that stung a lot! It would have been a perfect and wonderful opportunity for me and for my family. I guess everything happens for a reason. 
This week was supposed to be my week of relaxing .... classes start back up next week. But I just don't think it's going to happen. One of my best friend was in a car accident this past weekend. I have been stressed to the max wondering and worrying about her. Justin and Jared went up on the mountain Sunday evening and I am worried about them as well. I have never been alone for this long and it's taking a toll..... I miss them like crazy! I have had a lot of alone time ... and I will be honest. I don't like it ONE BIT!!!! 
The boys and I have decorated for Christmas and for once in I don't know how long....... We  are ahead of schedule! Christmas outfits have been bought for the boys, Christmas Pj's have been bought, Finished pictures this weekend (hopefully getting cards out next week), and the big one..... we are DONE Christmas shopping. I feel like I can finally breathe and enjoy the holiday! I put my foot down this year and demanded we have Christmas here at our house for his family. I am tired of running running running. I want to enjoy the holiday with my family, in my home. I am tired of being around people that do not like me and don't want me there. This is my favorite holiday and I should not have to spend it stressed out and uncomfortable. I am proud of myself =) It seems lately I am being tested in every way possible. Whether or not I am passing I have no idea. Everything has woken me up so to speak and just about everything I see with a new perspective. I can't wait to get back into the swing of blogging and hope to gain more followers this time =)
Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy!
 Silly Boys!!!

This is my  friend that was in the accident.
