Almost One year later!!!

Wow!  It has been almost an entire year since I have posted on my blog.  I think I am ready to make more of an effort to post on a regular basis.  Life just gets the best of me and while I always have good intentions to post on here I just never find the time to do it.

There is no way I can start from where I last left off so I will just give a quick recap of our lives since April 2011. Well.....I only remember the fun stuff!  In August Jace turned 6 and started Kindergarten!  I can't believe how fast he has grown up.  It feels like it was just yesterday that he was learning to walk and he will already be 7 this year.  In September we headed to La Jolla for 5 days to relax with family.  We joined my Uncle Bob and Aunt Connie at their friends AWESOME beach house that sat right on La Jolla Beach.  It was pure heaven! So nice to vacation and stay in a place nicer than your house instead of a tiny hotel room.  The kids LOVED it!  Their favorite part was the evening on the deck toasting marshmallows over the fire.  We also made it to Lego Land for some fun!  My parents and my sister and Kyle were also able to join us.  By far one of the best vacations in a long time!

The holidays of course came and went quickly and now we are already over 2 months in to 2012! Not sure where the time goes.  Jaden will be 4 in April and in a few hours (3:30am) Abe will be standing in line to get Jaden a spot for pre-school for next year.  After returning students registered yesterday it leaves only 3 open spots.  I sure hope we get one as after touring the school Jaden is in love and talks about it every day!  I will keep you all posted!

The other MOST exciting news is my little sister and Kyle are expecting their first child on August 4th!  We just found out yesterday that I will be getting a little nephew!  I could not be more excited!  Kelly shared the news with me just before Thanksgiving and I had to keep it a secret until she told my parents on New Years Eve.  Both Jace and Jaden are thrilled to have another little cousin and Jaden is already practicing how to hold him with her baby dolls.  I can't wait to see them all together after he gets here!

Well....I think I have brought you up to speed.  I am going to try to post a few things from the last month and then I will hopefully be caught back up!
