I am not dead....

In fact, quite the opposite.  So what's happened in the last 4 months?  And WHERE have I been?!  Well, I am not stuck in SF, which some may assume since the last post was day 3 there.  We did return & since then.....

Matthew turned 6 (cue birthday song, or just hum it to yourself.  You're doing it now, aren't you?!) My mom & I went to a Josh Groban concert - oh yeah!  All 4 kids have returned to school (hallelujah chorus heard 'round about) My BFF Jill came to town (woot woot.  No more sound effects, I promise) Our friends from WI came to visit & we spent a night at the beach visiting Judd & I visited Las Vegas with friends from AK  I decided to go against my gut & volunteered to be the PTO treasurer (And this folks is where I lay all my "no more time for blogging" blame)  Our entire house got recarpeted thanks to an upstairs bathroom flood  We had family pics taken by a fantastic photographer Jordan & Tessa were sealed & we had the whole fam damily here for a Thanksgiving feast  Had a fun visit to our favorite pumpkin patch We had a family trip to Disneyland  Judd is now the 1st Counselor for the Sunday School &  I am now the RS Midweek meeting Chair (Enrichment leader) Christmas was super fantastic & we had Judd's family for Christmas dinner  Judd has lost an amazing 50+ pounds & I have lost 30+  And last but not least Savannah has lost a tooth & Matthew has lost 2.  The only problem is the tooth fairy is a boy but demands he is a girl & therefore always forgets to leave money simply because he is in denial of who he really is (Judd says I'm the tooth fairy & I say he's the tooth fairy.  Nobody has been the tooth fairy & it's not really working well in our "the tooth fairy really does exist" talks.)  You think we would have this figured out by now.


So there you have it.  I am NOT dead just busy, which I know is a lame excuse because aren't we all?  Hopefully I will come back & you will see pics & read stories & everything will be all peachy again. 

XOXO,
Kara
