So far

So far in 2009 things have been busier than ever. Just wanted to jot a few things since our camera is out of comish and I can't post pics witch is keeping me from blogging and FBooking and driving me crazy. Anyway, things have been busy but very fun. Brady and I have discovered a whole new appriciation for our family of five, different than we have felt throughout the past ten years. Becoming more reclusive and wanted to just "be" together, doesn't matter if it is in or out, traveling or at home just desire strongly for all of us to be together. I think it is a natural progression and most people go through it, we are not talking rocket science but it is interesting to take a look at the view while it is happening. Womens bible study is coming to an end next week and I will miss it dearly. Hopefully I will stay connected with those mommas. Plan on moonlight-teaching for an advanced acting class in April, I always love that and feel very much alive after! Oh yes, and let me not forget...I am PAINTING again. This is a big one. Have taken a hiatus since before getting pregors with Maggie and I finally was pressed to finish something for Beth's new salon. After all of the searching in college for a nitch and push from miss wilson to focus on portraiteres I'm hooked. We were up there today making her custom chandelier :) so I took a few pics with our old camera. Yeah I know it has only taken almost a decade to get brave enough to start "pushing" my art. Starting another this weekend and I am loving it. I love the way the girls respond to me painting in front of them. I can tell it inspires them a little. Speaking of Bethie, we have been super busy with the salon in our spare time. Or rather, she is working her butt off and we are just helping when we can :). I am so proud of her! The salon is open for business but the grand openning is the first week of April. Anyway, gearing up for our trip to the beach in May. Still losing the lbs, dying for those Italian donuts from Olive Garden..Ha can't even talk about them because it makes my mouth water :). Enjoying watching the girls grow in there extra curricular activities this semester Maggie in ballet and Mimi in gymnastics, my heart is warm just thinking about it. Going to see Dave in Dallas first of May. Getting ready for Ru's first birthday and baby dedication. FINALLY signing our joining papers next Sunday for Fellowship. Thinking of a few more paintings for my walls hmmmmm...what else couldn't be more into Real Housewives of New York, I know, guilty pleassure! Loveing helping Beth with the salon, I am soooo proud of her. Sending out a press release for her on Monday. Running again. 3.5 the last week when the weather was grand, so sore! But it feels good. Put on the 10 jeans, buttoned, sat down and everything one more size and I am back in the single digits :). Weaning Ruby next month, much mixed emotions. Thought she was weaning herself but that was a fluke. Thinking about my Mimi Jeanne a lot lately, love to all the Pucci's. Looking forward to this summer with my girls..lots of playing outside and nervous anticipation for Maggie's first day of kindergarten and Mimi's first day of PreK 3 (maybe :))Anyway that is what is going on so far in 2009.
