Snow Day!

December 11, 2008 - it snowed in Hammond! I added lots of photos on my facebook so if you need further proof, go check it out. We totally did not know what to do with ourselves. It was absolutely beautiful though. We were one of the lucky ones who kept our power, but lost phones and cell service.

Birthday cards from the two kids. Had to show you the difference between my boy and girl! And yes, Pete's picture is on a torn out sheet of notebook paper...

Pete's day

So yesterday was my 37th birthday, Pete turns 11 today and Madi will be 12 next week! He got a new bike, a new playstation game, and 2 movies. He is into Star Wars right now so we got him the new cartoon Star Wars movie. He brought cupcakes to school to share. I fixed him his favorite breakfast - french toast. So I hope he is having a great day at school, because he certainly had a great morning at home.

Did anyone see the planets by the moon last night - I think it was Jupiter and Venus. You can see them right after sunset. Make sure you take the kids outside to see them this evening if you can.

My grandmother passed away Monday morning. She's been in a nursing home for quite a while now. She's had 2 strokes in the past 5 years. They think she may have had another stroke on Friday. The kids and I went to see her this past weekend, though my aunt said it was strictly for us to see her...she was not awake nor aware. It was very hard to see her like that. The funeral is tomorrow so just keep my entire family in your thoughts.

Happy Thanksgiving! We have so much to be thankful for - especially a God that loves us.

Today....

Today is my mom's birthday. Last week was my dad's birthday. I just was thinking of how fast time flies and that my kid's will be 11 and 12 next month. I'm just blessed that I have my family and friends. To all those who read this, God bless and thanks for being there for me when I need you.
