A New Me...

Do you ever wish that you were someone different?
Do you ever find yourself daydreaming about:
*
a different life
*
with a different body
*
in a different place
*
with different friends
*
I don't do it very often, but sometimes I find myself wishing that my life was somehow different. Not that I'm unhappy with how my life is now....but sometimes it just seems like different would be good! And maybe it's not really that I want all those things to be different....maybe it's that I want them to be better.
*
a better life
*
with a better body
*
in a better place
*
with better friends
*
I don't really make New Year's Resolutions {other than to lose weight...which has been on my list for as long as I can remember}, but I think this year I am going to strive to be BETTER!
I want to be better at everything I do!
Not better than any other person...just better than the person that I am right now!
*
To live my life better
*
To get in better shape {& lose weight}
*
To make my surroundings better
*
And simply to be a better wife, mother, sister, daughter, and friend.
*
I think in the end if I make all those things BETTER, I really will be DIFFERENT. Still me, just a different, better me!

I hope you all have a great New Year's Eve!
See you in 2010!

Christmas Craziness

The title of the this post doesn't even come close to explaining how SUPER crazy the past week has been.

Jason and I {aka Santa's Helpers} spent the three days before Christmas working on a treehouse/clubhouse/playhouse for the boys. And Henry, Grant, and Eli spent the three days before Christmas shuffling back and forth between my parents' house and Jason's mom's house {so they wouldn't see the SURPRISE treehouse/clubhouse/playhouse}! I am still exhausted and all the Christmas festivities ended two days ago.

Here are a few pictures to recap our SUPER crazy and just plain SUPER Christmas!

Before:After:
The boys in their clubhouse on Christmas morning!
There is still a ton of work to do {painting, shingles for the roof, and a few windows} for their clubhouse to be finished. Santa's Helpers had a little trouble getting everything done for the clubhouse because it rained for 2 out of the 3 days before Christmas! Eli trying to get on the slide.
Grant on the slide.
Henry getting ready to slide!
CHRISTMAS 2009
I hope everyone had a great Christmas!
