New Year... New ME!!!

Can I just start out by saying that having kids really screws up your body, SO... this year I have decided now that I am not working I could do something about the many many pounds of CRAP that I have excess on my body over the years of being prego!!

I have decided to do the P9oX work out and diet. I start Feb. 1st and I am not going to quit until I have lost down to my goal weight. I have 45 pounds to lose!! That is a lot and I really hope that I can get there!!

Wish me luck :)

Christmas Eve

This year was probably one of my top 5 all time Christmas'. I am quessing because I wasn't working and Michael took work off so I got to spend time with my family for 11 days!! It seems like every year in the past Chirstmas just didn't feel like Chirstmas. We both only got Christmas day off of work and then had to go back the day after. It was really nice to just relax and enjoy the holiday season.

We spent Christmas Eve at my sister's house. She cooked prime rib and a turkey we all ate until we exploded and then about an hour later we all went back for more (of course!)

We had a lot of fun playing games and talking. It's really funny to compete with my family. They are so competetive!!

My mom really wanted to get some updated photos of the families. She made us all wear a color and then we took individual family pictures and a big group photo.

Here is my lovely mom and dad

My sister Christine and her husband Shane and thier 5 kids Candra, Janice, Melanie, Nathan and shaylee.

My brother Shon and his wife Karen and thier 2 boys, Corbin and Ryker.


For some reason I didn't take a picture of my brother Derek and his wife Carole and thier 2 girls Sadie and Sophie.

Then there is us. Me and my awesome husband Michael and our 2 girls, Emily and Kalia.

After we all had eaten and pictures were taken, we gathered together and sang some songs and my dad read Luke 2. Then all of the grandkids had something that they all had been working on and so we went to see what they had to show us and this is what we found.........

Oh I love it!!! What funny kids!!
