Hog Heaven Update

Next month I will be hosting a surprise 30th bithday party for my husband. He thinks we are celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary, but of course, we aren't. Things are starting to come together and I am so excited. I'm glad I don't have to keep it all secret because I love sharing all of the great ideas I am coming across. We have lots of Route 66 stuff to decorate with and I am working on the music list currently. Friends are collecting stuffed pigs to strategically place around the room and one of them is wearing a leather jacket and sings born to be wild. Oh, I can't wait.... If you have any suggestions, please share them! It is impossible to go over the top!

Catching Up

I didn't realize it had been so long since my last post. Things have been crazy busy here. Not just busy, but crazy busy. I began homeschooling our oldest child, left my job, and attacked my massive to-do list. My husband was assigned to a new work location slightly farther away from home and his entire schedule changed, thus changing our family schedule. Our middle daughter was diagnosed with Sensory Processing Disorder after I began an aggressive campaign on her behalf with doctors and school staff that she needed help with some issues they were overlooking. Fortunately our youngest goes with the flow, at least for now. And then there are the holidays, Thanksgiving at our house, two Christmas celebrations with each side of the family, and on and on. Don' t take this for complaining. I love it all, except for the heartaches with my little girl, except even these difficulties mean that we are now getting help and we are getting our ducks in a row for when she starts kindergarten next year so it will be a smoother transition.

I am glad to be back and look forward to being able to get back to writing. If you have a moment, check out another of my time fillers at www.curlsngrins.webs.com and let me know what you think! Happy New Year!
