Forever Ago

I know, I know....it has been forever since I posted anything. My excuse is Life Happened! One of my goals is to keep it current and post at least once a month.

Let's see, the Holidays were fabulous. We spent Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years with friends and had a great time. Themed potluck is now the new Christmas tradition.

2013 was a great year although we did have some ups and downs, which was to be expected. Our family helped another family that suffered the tragic loss of their 15 year old son. I know I personally felt as if their son was my child and I mourned the loss with the family.

Georgia trained for her first 5k through the program called Girls On The Run. She did great and only missed 1 practice. She is already signed up to do it again in the Spring. John volunteered to be her running buddy again too.

Georgia also spent part of the summer in Virginia with both sets of grandparents. While she had a blast, I was miserable. While she was away we bought new carpet for our house and did a room makeover for Georgia as her homecoming surprise.

We did have our hot water heater bust causing some slight damage to the downstairs. With our insurance settlement we were able to get a new kitchen floor, paint the downstairs and do several other smaller projects that had been undone for years.

John transferred to the Arson Unit at work and loves it. His schedule is very unpredictable so sometimes that leaves me in a bind but it all works out in the end. 

Til next time.
