I resolve...

Like so many I'm trying to keep a better record of my family's comings and goings this year. I haven't been on my own blog for so long that I forgot how to even get to it. It took me ten minutes to figure out how to post and I still can't figure out pictures. In 2010 I made a video of some pictures I had taken mostly for the sole purpose of announcing we would be having another baby (#5) in 2011. That was my last post. 2011 got no love even though I sat down at the computer many times to share my thoughts or a photo and I just couldn't do it. My kids were sad, my husband was sad, and now I'm sad that the entire year passed and I don't have it preserved. This year I promise to do better.
I'll start at the beginning.
January 1, 2012 was our 13th wedding anniversary. Dustin worked, we went to church, and after church we all slept. Well, most of us slept. For dinner we went over to my mother-in-laws without Dustin for yummy enchiladas (Madison's birthday request.) We watched Indiana Jones and went to sleep. We had big plans for the next day. Dustin and I were going to go out for our anniversary, Madison wanted to go to the mall to spend her birthday gift cards, Karley had plans to ride her bike all the way to her friends new house, and Paige and Scott wanted to play one last time before school started up again. During the middle of the night we all got sick with some sort of 24hr. bug except for Dustin and Paige. It was a sad and uneventful last day of winter break.
