I am still here....

Okay, I know, I have not posted forever!! It has been so long and we have been so crazy busy here that I never get a chance to post. I usually just get on and catch up on all of your blogs. Things have been crazy but everything is going great here in our house. We are ready for Christmas and we are super excited for all of the festivities.
DL is getting his tonsils out on the 23rd. I feel bad that it is so close to Christmas but I really don't want him to miss school for a week or more so this was our only option. He is being really brave about it and he is looking forward to getting pampered over the holidays. We are staying here for Christmas and then going to Boise for New Years. Hopefully DL will be feeling up to going there. The kids are so excited for Christmas and can't wait to see what Santa brings them.
The other day I was on the computer and the kids were with me and we were getting their Christmas lists ready. BL has always wanted one of those cupcake makers and I keep telling her that we already have a cupcake maker, it is called an oven and muffin tins. So then she starts bugging me for a easy bake oven, I told her we have one that cooks stuff pretty easy and it actually bakes things with heat and not just with a light bulb. So on this day that I have the kids in the computer room with me they are talking together and I hear DL say, "BL, just wait until you are bigger and you can buy your own easy bake oven for when you are at college, and then you can cook your own food with it!" BL thought that it was a wonderful idea and said that she would start saving money. I laughed and told them that by the time she was in college she would know how to use a real oven and cook the food for real. They are so funny!!
I am really going to try harder to post at least once a week this next year and be better at this, I love reading all of your blogs so much and you are all so good at posting so I will do better. Happy Holidays to everyone!!!

By the way I put a new thing on my blog on the side bar. It is called TheBlogFrog and it keeps track of all who visit my site. I think you need to sign up for it to show up on it so check it out it is pretty cool!
