Blog Neglected

Wow,  it's been a long time since my last post.  My excuse? Well, I have a few; work, kids, school, travel, holidays, elf on the shelf antics, etc.!! I should have made time for it, but I was just so tired from everything going on that my down time was spent in the bed (naps and a few extra stolen minutes in the am).

 I have been working two extra days each pay period to get some extra money for Christmas and our Disney trip coming up.  While the extra money is nice, the days away from the house has taken its toll.  I could show you with photos, but I'd be embarrassed!!!

We also traveled to West Virginia to see family between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Here's a peek:

 Doing what we do best - eating!!!

 My brother and his youngest - isn't she cute?  You can see half of my sister to the left there :)

 The annual pic at great grandma's house so she can see how much they've grown.  Unfortunately this year, she was on the couch and unable to actually come out and see this.  But, we all hugged her neck and showered her with kisses!!  

 Opening presents :)

More presents :)

The day after Christmas, we headed to Pigeon Forge for a few days with our Church youth group(that was a lot of fun packed into just a few days).

 Dixie Stampede

 How is a person suppose to sleep with these two?

 One of the youth leaders climbing for the team!!

 Chillin' in the room!!

One of our teens doing the chicken dance :)

So,  there has been a lot going on and I hope to get back into the normal routine of blogging, again!!  This happens far to often.
