Family Time

My poor little blog has been quite neglected for the last week or so. But not without good reason...my parents were in town! So I was spending all my free time with them and many other family members.

One of the first things I did was go fishing with my dad! This is something we hadn't gotten to do in far too long and I wanted to make it a priority. It was so great just sitting out on a farm pond soaking up the sun and spending time with my dad. We even caught a few fish :)

After that, I was pretty much terrible about taking any photos of the things we did! But my mom and I made a couple trips to the city to do some shopping and having lunch at places we don't normally get to eat at. I got to see both sets of grandparents and both sides of my extended families as well.

My town hosts a huge Labor Day celebration each year. This year we even had a carnival again. We had them when I was a kid, but it had been several years since we'd had one. It was great seeing the kids play and have fun :) (again, sorry, no photos!) And Monday there was a big parade and a demolition derby, both tradition.

While there may not be a lot of photos from their visit, there were lots of memories made. And that's what counts, right :)

Happy Labor Day!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Labor Day Weekend!!! I'm so excited to have a couple of days off work and to be able to spend it with my family and friends! My parents are here from Michigan and we've been having a great time :)
I also had my 10 year class reunion this weekend and got to see a lot of old friends from my class as well as other grades :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My parents are here all week, so I'll be spending as much time with them as I can!

3-Day Weekend

I just got back from a nice 3-day weekend off work!!! I also took a little bloggy break and mostly computer break. (Had to check the shop, of course)

Wanna see what I've been up to :)

We spent almost the whole three days on the river! The river is one of the only places I've found where I can completely relax :) I'm not thinking about other things I should be doing. I'm not thinking about getting home. I'm not thinking about the computer. I'm just relaxing :) I can enjoy myself without 50 other things going through my head! I have a hard time doing that sometimes, but I can always relax on the river :)

What do you do to relax?

Back After These Messages...

Happy New Year Everyone!!!
I've decided to take a bloggy break for just a few days. I've had terrible internet connection for the last several days making it hard to get posts together. And my parents leave tomorrow morning, so I'll be spending the rest of today with them. I go back to work on Tuesday, so I'll be back into more of a routine soon after.
Thank you to all of my readers for being beyond awesome this last year! Here's to an even better 2011 :)

From my family to yours!
I hope everyone had a fun and safe Christmas! We spent Christmas Eve at my grandparents with my extended family playing games and celebrating :) That night we spent with Jesse's family and had a blast watching the kids open all their gifts!
Christmas day was quite a change...we stayed home all day! My parents came out and we cleaned and organized my upstairs storage area...LOL! Not quite a celebration, but we were together :)

Friday Features-Family Time

Merry Christmas! I recently had a discussion with some friends about how Time really is the best gift! We have decided to not buy many gifts this year on either side of the family. I do love shopping for the perfect gift, but I've noticed that I'm less stressed to get everything done this year and I still can't wait to spend time with my family. Who needs store-bought gifts when you can give TIME :) These great decor items say exactly how I feel...
