Wow, I am SOOO behind!!

I am so out of the loop on EVERYTHING!
I miss my bloggy friends!
So, here's a little shout-out to ya'll!!

I am still reading when I can but my time has been taken up with a stubborn 5 year old who has taken up an attitude lately. And an adorable 2 1/2 year old who is coming out of some of her stubbornness into absolute cuteness!

Well, it was the hard-drive on my laptop that went out on us. We have had a few incidents over the last 8-9 months that I have, in hinds sight, seen it coming. I am very upset over this seeing as we have only had the computer a little over a year. We purchased it in Jan. of 2008. Our old Dell laptop that we gave away was 4 years old and still in great working order. I can not a bad thing about that old Dell. Our old desktop is almost 5 years old and it is also a Dell and also still works great. A little slow, but great nonetheless. So, we broke down an ordered a new Dell laptop. I have always wanted to be a Mac-Girl but what can I say. We're cheap. We could get two Dell laptops for the price of one MacBook. So it is in production and I have hopes of getting it sometime next week. We will see. I can't wait to get back to ya'll! I've missed being around on a regular basis.

We had a great Easter. The kids made out in the candy department. We ended up with a total of 7 Easter baskets full of candy. WAY TOO MUCH CANDY!! We actually gave some away yesterday. Shhhhh, the kids will never know!

We attended church at my brother's church so that we could see my nephew who was home only for the holiday. He has had a rough year. He got himself into a lot of trouble and had to go away for some time. He seems to really be trying to make a change in his life. Though we do not agree with the choices he has made in the past we wanted him to know we still loved him and support his change. It was so good to see him. His hug was an embrace that lasted forever. I didn't know who was going to pull away first myself or him!! He looks great. My prayer is that he sees God is the one can fill the void he has been searching to fill.

After church we had my entire (in-law side) family over. We had a very relaxed afternoon with coming and going of different family members. It was beautiful but chilly so the kids and I stayed in most of the day. We did, however, have a small egg hunt in the back yard. Once all the eggs were found we headed back in to warm up and take naps. I do have pictures but I think I will wait until we get our new computer to post them.

Speaking of pictures, I hate to say this...but...my camera....broke. The details are not important as I do not want anyone to feel bad about it, because it was an accident. It is suffice to say it will need to be replaced. I made sure when I purchased it to get a 4 year extended warranty and so I will need to be going to Boardman over the next couple of days to get it fixed. The warranty that got would replace the camera if anything like this ever happened. I'll be glad to have back in working order or replaced. I have been using my old camera which is a good back-up.

My poor hubby is sick again. He had the dreaded cold a few weeks ago. Stuffy, runny nose, cough, and achy. Well he has it again. I guess he throw up this morning at work this morning too. Poor guy. He is now sleeping and hoping to feel better. Camden has a bit of the same cold but only stuffed up and a bit of a runny nose. I'm hoping I don't get it.

Well, I think that is about I have time for tonight. I need to finish folding laundry while I'm down here and then get my cranky little sweet girl off to bed. I hope ya'll are doing well and can't wait to come back when I can catch up on everything. Until next time...
