Happy New Year!!

I made it throught the holidays and, to tell you the truth, I'm glad they're over! It was a tough one this year, but once I made it over the hump, things got better. I survived my 40th birthday party and actually had a good time and I think that everyone that came had a good time too. Now it's time to start working on making Thank You cards. No more store bought cards for me. I'm making my cards from here on out!

The kids had a great holiday, getting lots of cool things. I even got some really cool things this year. I think I did a good job shopping this year. The kids got some nice things, but I didn't go overboard like some years. Next year I would seriously like to think about taking a cruise the week before Christmas. Amanda is all for it, but Ryan will take some convincing. It's tough when they're that age. He still wants lots of stuff. Amanda would be happy with one thing and a relaxing, fun-filled vacation. We'll have to do some thinking on that matter.

It's time to make those New Year's resolutions, too. I'm gonna lose some weight and get back into shape. I can't believe I still weigh what I weighed this summer when we were vacationing in Holden Beach. You sure couldn't tell. The flab is hanging and I.DON'T.LIKE.IT!! Amanda doesn't know it yet, but we're gonna be some hot looking chicks this summer. Thin and fit!
