2010 where have you gone?

Well, I can safely say that I did not post once in the year 2010.  Not that I am proud of this fact or the fact that we are 7 months into 2011 and I am just now making a post.  But I am however very excited to start back up again.  Looking back at past posts I almost get teary eyed thinking about how much has changed.  Some good... some bad, but through it all I truly have grown.  I have made decisions this year that were very hard for me, but with prayer and discernment I truly feel I am heading in a direction where the Lord wants me to be right now.  I'm learning so much about myself and what I am capable of.  I have learned some of my strengths, but God has also shown me some of my weaknesses.  Its these weaknesses where my focus is right now.  I'm sure I will open up with some of that in time.  My hope is that I can regularly keep up with this thing this go round. 

So much has happened since my last post I cant even begin to start "updating" so I will just start with what is current.  Kevin and I are kid free!  We took the grandparents up on their offer to have the kids for a couple of weeks this summer.  Although I am counting down the days (I miss them so much!) I know they are having a blast!  We have gotten to talk to them just about every night and the calls are filled with what they have done that day.  Today they went to a drive through safari.  This I'm sure was perfect due to the fact my kids are slightly obsessed with animals.  It was so funny listening to them describe the experience.  Kaitlyn's favorite was the Zebras and Brayden was scared of the "E-MOOS!"  Tomorrow they are going to see Cars 2.  I cant wait to hear what they thought of the movie.  While they have been gone Kevin and I have been very productive around the house and have gotten to enjoy some time just us.  We have tried several new restaurants and even picked another one of my favorites here in Chuck Town.  Locklears Beach City Grill, it is down on the Folly Beach pier.  Casual dining, food was great and you can eat outside on the pier.  If you visit you must try it!  When the kids get back Kaitlyn will only have about 4 wks of summer left until school starts back so we are going to try and make the best of it.

Well, I will end with a BIG good luck to myself in keeping up with this blog.  If for nothing else than a note keeper of all the little life moments I don't want to forget one day.  

Good Night!
