I'm Back

well it has been almost a year since my last post. I'm such a slacker! since I set a goal to get back on this year - I figure I better get busy.
Alot has really happened in the past year. my last blog was in oct. so I will start with nov.(quick sumarries)
November:Jason and I celebrated our 17 year anniv. & went to Va. for Thanksgiving
December: our family made a very memorable trip out west with my good friend Alicia and her family to visit my sister Carol and brother Rudy and uncle Ron.
January: Froze my butt and struggled to get the kids back on schedule after winter break.
February: continue to freeze my butt. Take kids sledding one to many times. (but I dolve to watch them go down the hills I am so amazed how the cold does not effect them) OH and Jason turned 36.
March: winter blues are going away there are hopes for spring! and Jason Jr. turned 17. Jesse turned 9. Celestina turned 8.
April: my parents and my brother Leo and his family visit for spring break .we all went to Chicago for the weekend ate alot of pizza! Celstina was baptized. and oh my goodness I am pregnant.
May: Last month of school,THANK GOODNESS,I have to much morning, afternoon, &night time sickness to deal with anymore phone calls from teachers. Cathryn yurned 12.
June: It is warm in Indiana Yeah!!! But I go to Va. to visit my parents and it is frickin hotter than hot. but the sickness is coming to an end. Jeremy turned 4.
July: starts with a fun fourth of July barbecue celebrating Cecilia's b-day she turned 15. and summer vacation!!!!! we went to Myrtle Beach. Alicia and kids came with us. Totally Fun! My sister Kathyand her family met up with us. It was alot of fun.
August: school started on the 14. spent the first few weeks doing school registrations and school supply shopping . I turned 37 . and yes I am getting big! I had my ultra sound - It's a BOY!!!!!

here are some pictures .that is Jr.'s car and cahtryn and jesse running . and Jr. as a cheerleader it was great totally funny .I need to figure out how to put the cheer on the blog. it was for Homecoming week.

Well it has been a long time . I had such a great summer - I have just been so busy since school started it has been scouts, cross country, marching band, swimming. and during the day I have all my chores and then add kids coming home with lice and I am now completely nuts!!!! I must admit I have been enjoying 2 hrs at the gym in the morning. It's the least I could do for myself. anyway having alot of fun with aerobic classes. The what's happening since last blog . ALOT Jason Jr. got a car wich he has yet to drive. we (as in Jr.) are finally serious about getting his Eagle(scout), and he is back to all the picture taking plus a little extra cause now we add photography class with yearbook, Cecilia has just been busy with cross country and marching band, Cathryn had cross country and yearbook, Jesse is also doing cross country and swim and causing trouble at school. Celestina is just enjoying school and having me volunteer in her class. and Jeremy is just as spoiled as can be but totally adorable. and Jason got a new job so far so good:] and now that school has been in for just about 2 months I think I have a routine down so I hope to be on regularly!I look foward to reading comments from everyone !
