2011changes

Christmas break ends and a New Year begins! 2010 was a good year but I have a feeling 2011 will be even better! After doing some praying for financial peace, God sent me some signs. I quit doing home day care about a year and a half ago, finished my teaching degree and planned to become a teacher. Since my daughter is still home, this was my last year of staying home. (things could still change) My new plan is to watch a former daycare family. My signs: In November a family I used to watch called to see if I was still doing daycare, I never called them back because it would not have fit into my life. Another family I used to watch emailed me to see if I would watch her boys 3 days a week. Only problem was that her job would possibly end in 3-6 months so it was a no-go. In the meantime my hubby asked if I missed doing daycare, I kinda did. That comment began to put thoughts in my head for starting daycare again this summer. Well-I happen to be out shopping on a Friday night (the last day of school for 2010) I ran into the family that called me, but I never called back. They were sad that night because their daycare provider was closing the end of the month. I said I would think about it--here I am going on week 3 of my new path, and I like it!
I also started 2011 with a new challenge-2011 move it challenge see the button on the side. I am running a 10K this May so I will be training for that, I am beginning to workout with crossfit, my hubby does the workouts from home, I figure I could/should workout here too! All I need is a tredmill :0

Christmas break FUN!

The boys first time ice skating!

Over break we bowled with scouts on Monday, Ice skated on Tuesday, Swimming with scouts on Wednesday, and Rollerskating on Thursday with scouts. Even with all the activities, the kids were ready for school to start(OK- I was ready for school to start).

Well, the blog site is not posting my pics as well as they normally do, so here are bits and pieces of what i can get posted
After the museum, was a visit to Great Grandpa Eddie's-the girls enjoying Hot Coco
This visit, K-was worried about the T-Rex

The BIG T-Rex-He moves, He grawls, and He has been known to scace all three of my children during one of the many visits.
