my upcoming weeks

I've been feeling bad the last couple of days because it has been so long since I've posted anything on here and even longer since I uploaded any pictures.
I haven't taken any pictures for a while. I've been busy and lazy so it just hasn't happened.
plus there hasn't been much going on here to mention about.

December is always the busiest month for our family. we have two birthdays two days in a row (which are coming up next week) we have Christmas at home and with at least three other family groups, a gingerbread house party thrown by my sister, we have three different music programs to attend in the next two weeks ~ two of them being only three days apart next week; one of which is on Erica's birthday ~ and my sisters and I have a night out at the camper cabin. This is all happening from the 5th to the 25th. to most people that wouldn't seem like much, but I'm not a soccer mom ~I'm what you would call a homebody~ running here and there and coordinating everyone's schedule gets a bit overwhelming.

So Friday night is my sisters' annual camper cabin night. All of my sisters and our good friend who we all love as our sister started this up maybe five years ago, I think. Alice rents the cabin (which reminds me I need to find out how much my chip in is to pay her back)
we all show up out there in the evening as soon as we can. We all bring something yummy to eat, we stay up late laughing, then we go out to our moms' cemetery and sing Christmas carols and silly songs to our moms.
then we go to sleep for a few hours, have breakfast and then back to our normal lives.
Pictures of Friday night will probably not be posted because of the dorkish embarrassment to my sisters.

The kids are going to have a sleep over at gramma and grammpa's Friday night so today is being spent figuring out what all I want to take for a yummy snack or two and getting all the kids clothes laid out and cleaned so it can all be packed. I hope that Ronan does okay. it will be the first time he will have had to go through a whole night without a mommy.
aaaa, he'll be fine.

Sounds like a blast! I can totally picture you guys doing that. Have fun!

almost 2 years have gone by

why do I always do this? so many things have happened in the past two years.  I just feel so silly that I haven't kept up on the blog.  ...
