Geeze, it sure has been a long time since I posted on here. :O FB steals the majority of my time. heheh

I can't believe that it has been almost a year since I last posted on here. So much has happened since then! I guess I'll just brief on whats happened since then, and maybe incluce some pictures. ;]]

Right around the time that I posted last, I majorly hurt my right big toe. I think I may have broken it. It was just starting to get a little chilly outside, so I was just starting to wear socks around the house again. I had went upstairs to my room to get my crochet stuff so that I could crochet and watch a Bonanza episode at the same time. Well, when I got to the stairway, I decided to run(MAJOR mistake!). When I got to the landing, my slippery feet went out from underneath me. I actually KICKED the door to the stairway open. It actually took my toe a minute or two to hurt. It bruised up really really bad, and hurt like heck. Ibuprofen was my best friend, LOL It still hurts at times.


Well, let's see... Dad turned 37 on the 8th of October.

Here's a picture of Micah looking at Dad's cake:

Here's a picture of Megan holding Jake:

I can't find the pictures of Dad with the cake... I must be blind. :P

Zarah turned 3 on the 26th of October. I think that the pictures of Zarah's birthday are still sitting on a disc. :P

We had a pretty bad ice storm move through on the 18th od Dec. Here are some random pictures I took the next day:

Abi/Abigail turned 2 on the 21st of December.

Here's Abi with a couple of her gifts (notice my awesomely cool converse shoes. hahah) :

And then after that was Christmas. We took alot of pictures of the celebrating, but none of those pictures have been re-sized/cropped. And I think that all of us kids have changed since then away. I'll make sure to attach alot of recent pictures. ;]]

I turned 15 on the 9th. It was right around my birthday that I got my camera ordered. It didn't get here til almost a week after my birfday. I ended up settling on a Fujifilm Finepix Z20fd in Wasabi Green. Here is what it looks like.

After my birthday was Mom's. She turned 33 on the 23rd. I don't think that we have any pictures of her on her birthday uploaded to the computer...

Megan's birthday was next. She was 12 on the 30th. And none of the pictures of her birthday have been re-sized. :P

In early July, July 7th to be exact, we went to the county fair. We all had alot of fun.

Jakey Boy turned 1 on the 13th of August. And the pictures of his birthday celebration are still on my parent's camera. :P

Here lately I've been pretty busy. I've done some canning, of salsa and dill pickles. I've also frozen alot of ground zuchinni, and also blanched and frozen quite a bit of green beans. I'm so thankful for our little garden! :D Here soon we want to go get some peaches so that I can can(lol) them. I would also like to can applesauce, but it'll be awhile before apples are ready.

Megan and I started school on the 17th of this month. I'm officially a junior now. :D 6 days down, 173 to go! :]] So far, my favorite subjects are vocabulary, business math, and Rosetta Stone spanish. My days are sooo crammed full right now. I'm trying to figure out how I can squeeze in an hour of weightlifting. I may have to get up earlier.

Well, I don't really know what to talk about now, so I think I'm gonna end this for now. I'll try to get some recent pictures of us up tomorrow. :]]
