Oops

Ok, it's bad when you haven't blogged in so long that you forget how to sign in to your account. I couldn't remember my sign in or password. Sad, isn't it?

You know what's even sadder? I just realized yesterday that I can fit into my 10 year old son's shoes! (And I don't have tiny feet. I wear a size 8.) When did he get so big?

Things as usual have been busy around here. We took a surprise trip to visit my mom, aunt and sisters (plus their families) at the end of December which was fun. We got professional group pics of all 10 nieces/nephews/grandkids ranging in age from 18 years down to 1 year old. The funny thing is that 3 of them were born within 6 months of each other, one to each sister.

I hadn't seen my mom in about 3 years, my aunt in about 6 years, one sister in 6 years and the other in about 1 1/2 years. Everyone was previously scattered much further apart. I was nice to be able to see everyone again and let all the cousins spend some time together.

Beyond that, we've had lots of the normal everyday activities of a big family. With our homeschool year winding down, I hope to have more time to catch up on my blog. At least, I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
