End of Year Wrap Up

Well 2008 only has 4 days left. WOW that went fast. December also seemed to travel very fast. Christmas was a little different this year since Kris is stuck in bed. She is bent and determined to have a very eventful Christmas next year though. My kids got to get up at 5:30 am to celebrate and open presents before Dad had to go to the fire station. That definately made for quite a long Christmas day. When I was growing up we could not come out of the room until 7am. As I am now older I like that rule!
Last Saturday the girls had their very first dance recitle. They were so excited to get all dolled up and dance in front of everybody. Don't they look adorable! They did a really good job on their performance and are so excited to do it again.

I can't believe that Monday I will turn 29! That is just mind boggling. I don't know why but the big 30 just scares me to death! I can remember being little and asking my mom how old she was and she would always say "I am plenty-nine." I think I will start using that soon. I am happy that JC will have the day off and we can do something as a family. Still don't know what the 'something' will be.

The New Year definately has some challenges to look forward to. JC will be going to paramedic school until the end of August. I am a little frightened about that also. Just scared of the unknown really. It will be so strange to have a husband in the evenings on a nightly basis. Ever since we were married he has worked swing shifts or graveyards and now 24's. After 8 years of practically being able to do what ever I want at night, I think he will definately be giving me a bad grade in the wife department. Oh well!

So I hope all had a Merry Christmas! Happy Birthday to Me! Good Bye 2008! Happy New Year for Everyone!
