Happy New Year - oh Facebook what you have done to me......

I am only a few weeks behind wishing all a happy new year..sorry.  The little free time I have on the computer lately I have been spending on Facebook.  As a result I have been able to reconnect with a lot of people I haven't talked to in many, many years:  people I went to high school with, college and all my friends in the "after- life" (meaning after kids).  It's amazing how easy it has become to find and communicate with people.  My favorite part is the old pictures people have sent back from my elementary and middle school years.  It takes me back like it was yesterday. 

Let us not forget though in this age of advanced technology, good old fashioned face-to-face time.  It is important to actually interact with real people. 

I can't end without sharing some pictures.  Here are a few faves.........................

 

 

 

You might recognize these from our Christmas card (2008).  I need to get these blown up and framed. 

Priceless expressions!!!

Christmas 2008

I have been a little lax in my blogging since before the holiday.  You know how it is, all that work and build up before the holiday and then boom......over in a flash.  Bob and I got each other a digital video camera for Christmas.  I will have to figure out how to get it on my blog.  That would be neat, especially for those of you that don't see us that often.  I will work on it.

Christmas was awesome.  All three kids were completely excited and loved every last minute of it, until it was over of course.  Some of the presents Santa gave out were........

    a desk for Jeremy

    light sabers for all three boys (watch out)

    a Cool School computer for Lucas

    a drum set and guitar

    a tabletop ice hockey table

    good old lite brite

    Star wars and Kung Fu Panda characters

    soccer nets for outside

    M&M's in the stockings

    etc.

Attached are a few of my favorites from the day

 

 

 

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!
