Thank goodness...

The holidays are finally behind us, whew!! Bet you thought we had fallen off the earth since I had not posted in awhile.

We had a good Christmas here at home this year with my mom and Kathrine, Jared and Addy. Camden got the coveted weight bench he has been asking Santa for for a couple of years now. He also racked up on Lego sets of Star Wars and Indiana Jones. The DIVA got a karaoke machine and cds and a cupcake maker, nothing like the taste of a cupcake that takes 25 seconds to cook, mmmm! Both kids got ipods for Christmas too, Santa figures it will save us on batteries for the portable cd player since we were changing them at least once or twice a week.

The kids also got enough movies between them to occupy us every night during break. We have watched the Hulk, Kung Fu Panda, Indiana Jones and Wall-E. There are still a couple of others around here we have not gotten to yet but I am sure we will since school doesn't start back until Jan 12th.

The New Year was rung in quietly at home with Chris and the kids. The kids made it to midnight with the DIVA getting a power nap in at 11:30 only to catch a second wind just before midnight. There was no getting her to bed after that, ugh!!

I have set a whole new record on encountering my first Most Embarassing Moment of 2009!! Yesterday my mom and sister and I went to the movies, after it was over I took a tumble down the stairs of the darkened theater and busted up my left arm and elbow and my pride. I am brusied and sore but nothing is broken. Thnakfully it was dark in there so no one could see my face so I should not get recognized around town...Ha! Ha!

This week will be spent finishing taking down the Christmas decor and praying for a phone call letting us know if Chris will be heading to ATL for another interview. Keep us in your prayers as we anxiously await any type of good news right now! We would love to go to ATL and pray that if that is the Lords will that He will act quickly!

Hope everyone has a healthy and happy 2009!
