Happy New Year

We are welcoming 2011 and looking forward to the many things that we know we get to look forward to.

* New granddaughter in May.
* Sassy practicing driving and getting her driver's license.
* Sassy dating turning the boys down as they all have cooties.
* Dance competitions in Cedar City and in our surrounding area.
* Me getting my LCSW rather than just my CSW. This is big in my profession. (This will actually take place in the next 2 weeks)

And we are just waiting to see what other things we will get to do.

We have been so busy and getting to the computer has been quite a challenge.

During Christmas we got to have our Grammie with us from the 24th to the 26th. We don't get to spend much time with her and it was a real treat.

Working full-time and then coming home long enough to pick up children and go to dance recitals, shopping, family parties, visiting with friends, deliver goodies to our neighbors, and go out to eat.

We had a sweet Christmas. We got up at 8 AM!!!! My baby is 13. It's kinda cool. Then we cooked and ate breakfast and then........we opened the gifts. Slowly. We savored the Christmas feeling all day.

On New Year's Eve we partied at home. We played board games and games on the Wii. While playing life on the Wii . . . Sassy got married to black character. We never got his name. Oldest teased her about marrying a chocolate guy. It wasn't a racist comment. He really looked like chocolate. Tree Monkey's friend married a bald guy that was old and she is only 13 so it was hilarious.

It's been a lot of fun this holiday season. I've worked most of it, but found time to fun, too.

I also got a new baby. She is part mini-schnauzer and yorkie.

Isn't she adorable? I think so, too. Izzy Bear is her name and she is mine! The first pet we have ever gotten for just me. Her mom is Monkey Wrench's dog. She was her only pup.

Happy New Year Everyone!!!
