Merry Christmas!!

Wow, I'm writing this on my iPad while I sit in bed... Can't believe how long it's been since I have blogged! My iPad that was under my tree today that is! So awesome. Our kids had a great day, this year was the first year they asked other relatives for presents and got the "is that it" bug, I quickly tried to turn that attitude around and let them know they need to be thankful for anything they got! They both got the leap pad from leapfrog, as well as an x-box, along with all their other gifts, so they have lots to be happy about.

I also had my Forks trip back in August, it was so weird and surreal being there. I still haven't seen Breaking Dawn, hoping to go while on holidays here before it leaves theatres! The trip was a great experience though, saw the HOH Rainforest, visited the ocean at La Push Beach, had mushroom ravioli at Bella Italia (with two cokes) and stopped in Seattle on the way back. Got to see the space needle and the original Starbucks. Just wish we had more time, we cruised through it all pretty quickly.

Anyhoo, just signed on quickly as I didn't know if it would let me post from my new device, and wanted to wish everyone out in blog land a very merry Christmas and all the best in the new year!

I'm going to FOOOORRRKKS!!

So in 6 days I will be going to Forks Washington, the setting for my all time favorite book, Twilight. I just finished reading it again for the umpteenth time lol. My friend and I started planning it last year and it's finally time for the trip! I'm pretty stoked. I already bought Chase his school supplies as by the time I get back there will be only three days left before he starts school. Grade one!! So happy that my dayhome costs will finally drop a teeny tiny bit. Bought Rayna's birthday gifts too, I'll just need to hit the dollar store to get her some balloons and party stuff but her birthday isn't until mid September so I still have time. I have been crafting up a storm too lately, I've fallen back in love with crochet and made a blanket for the camper, half a baby blanket (there wasn't enough yellow in the kit so I'm waiting on a ball of yarn to arrive in the mail) and some cute little flowers to spruce up the jar that holds all Rayna's ponies. I'll share photos and links when I'm on my computer, as apparently I can't upload photos from my phone to blogger! Anyhow, just a quick update, chat more when I have time!!
