Did I ever mention that we have six kids?

Christmas time sledding fun!!!

Merry Christmas!

School's out...again.

I finished my finals last night. I'm sooooo glad it is over. I spent 8 hours studying yesterday (with short interuptions of course). It all paid off with some good grades for me.
I am excited to be home with my kiddos for more than two weeks, just relaxing. We all need this time together.
I am taking physiology + lab, and psychology next term. That should be interesting.
I am so excited for Christmas time. We have our tree in the livingroom, and Rusty has been tipping it over once in a while, so it's a good thing the tree and all the ornaments are made out of plastic!
I wish you all a Merry Christmas, til I blog again...

Finals Week

I am taking finals this week for Anatomy and Anatomy lab. Wish me luck! I took my chemistry final yesterday, and I did well.
Finally got to go see New Moon Movie on Friday night with Jared. It was really good. I think it was better than the first one by a country mile.
This week is the last week of school for me and the kids. It will be nice to have a break for a couple of weeks. We have plans for Christmas crafts, baking and service projects. Merry Christmas everybody!!!

Sleepy Sam

This kid is strong willed. He will not take a nap, but he frequently falls asleep in the oddest ways.

Crazy Kiddos

I hear Tommy shout "Mommy, I'm ready for Ballet!", so I go into Mary's room and this is what I found.

Another great Thanksgiving with cousins!
