Hello there! It's been awhile....
I took a little blogging break for a couple reasons....
#1. I just could NOT find the time. Every weekend in November and December we had something going on and the kids school schedule is just nuts for those two months too so the blog took a back seat. As it, sadly, usually does.
#2. In the midst of all of the craziness I had heard through the grapevine that someone had a negative opinion of my blog. That this someone is under the impression that all I do is sit at home all day and write on my "stupid blog". I'm only human and as much as I really say I don't care what people think, it got to me. But then last night Mike looked at me and asked why I hadn't been blogging lately and when I told him he said "You can't let peoples opinions ruin everything you love to do." And you know what! He's right!! So, I'm back!
We have all caught the nasty virus that's been going around and it is a doozy for sure! It started with Kensington who really got it not so bad, then it moved onto Mike, then to Tenley and I at the same time and yesterday it hit Kamryn and Logan and they've home sick from school. It's a really bad cough and runny nose, accompanied by a fever and just feeling really rundown and achey. I'm still convinced I had the flu but I never went and got checked out...for no other reason other than I never go to the doctors. I did however, take Tenley on Sunday and was told for her it was just viral. But ugh! Whatever it is, this sickness really kicks your butt!
Let's go back to where we left of...
We had a great holiday season!
The kids are all at such great ages for Christmas and we really made sure to make it as magical as we could.
From the Christmas parade...to driving around looking at Christmas lights (Kensington's favorite)...lots of Christmas songs and Christmas movies...to making sure we saw Santa as well!
They were SO excited to see Santa. Look at Kensington, she's absolutely giddy!
We hope you all had an amazing Christmas as well!
And then we blinked and it was Kamryn's birthday! Can you believe she's 9?!?!?
Here she is at her birthday party in front of her awesome bowling cake!
We had her party at Uncle Zacky's new spot Ten Pin Eatery in Hyannis at the Cape Cod Mall.
(If you are local you need to check it out!!)
We bowled, we played laser tag, arcade games and ate some really yummy food! We even got to use the VIP room. Lucky girl to have an Uncle who did that for her. :)
And a special shout out to Ian for being the best party host!!
Happy 9th Birthday, Kamryn!
Ahhh....that felt good. It's good to be back!
