WOW - I bet you all thought that I had fallen off the face of the planet! Well after a busy few weeks with the Christmas Holiday and New Years I am finding myself trying to continue to get back on track. Christmas was a great time. We again stayed at mom and dad's (aka Grandma Mel and Grandpa Mark's) house. The entire family was there and enjoyed a surprise visit from Santa Clause! He stopped by after blowing a 'shoe.' For more information you'll have to see the video to understand. Several copies are floating around the family so be sure to check it out! William's favorite gift was a Fire Truck that is 4 feet long and has a mechanical ladder that is controlled by a couple of different controllers on the side of the truck.
Andrew asked Santa for the bouncy ball with handles (aka a hipity hop ball) and a Grinch doll. He got both and was thrilled. It was a lot of fun see the joy on the children's faces. If it would only last!
Andrew and William started school again last night. We are doing a parent separation class this time that allows us to talk with other parents about "adventures" is how I like to put it where we can discuss ideas and solutions for struggles that we are having with are kids. Jay and I have really liked being involved in teaching the boys social and educational play. The school district seems to really be a great one for the boys future.
Work has been pretty mundane the past few weeks and really hope that it turns around soon. I am really starting to loose my motivation. The company I work for buys computer and communications equipment from companies in efforts to sell equipment to them equipment that we find at or below cost. It's becoming more and more of a challenge as companies today are so set in their ways with the vendors that they are currently working with that it doesn't allow a lot of room for discussion for ME! I'm hoping to write more again soon (seem like I go in spurts)!
