Look at what happens in a year!!

Isn't it crazy to come here a year later and see the posts about making decisions to be where I am today.

And where is that exactly?

Well I'm not so new at my job anymore! This year has been wonderful for me learning and recreating myself in a job that I felt I knew nothing about when I started. But the job has gone well and I'm not learning so much now but more "improving upon" what I've learned thus far. It's a great job with so many opportunities.

As for Thomas and I well.....

YES!! We got married February 18, 2008! We wanted something simple so we opted for a trip to Vegas! It was a great time AND we got married so it was by far the best trip imaginable! And no! We did not get married in some cheesy Elvis chapel! We opted for a more intimate ceremony that was just perfect!

This was also the motivation I needed to get myself scrapbooking again! I've started our wedding album and now I am instantly hooked again!

As for the kids. They have all adjusted to this new life! They are so good and well behaved! After the stir up of their lives a few years back they have come out of it like troopers!

Hayley is now 9 going on 15. But she is such a good little girl with such a big heart. We don't ever have issues with her.

She's now taken up cheerleading and LOVING it to death! BUT this week at practice she fell off the top and broke her elbow! Mommy is trying to keep her spirits high so she doesn't get discouraged from trying again when she's all better. Here's a pic of her from her last competition:

Now admit it! Isn't she the prettiest little girl in the world????

As for Ethan...he's 6 now and full of energy! He keeps me running that is for sure.

This past winter he took up hockey.

It wasn't exactly his favourite thing to do though. So this summer we are going to try out soccer to see how he likes that instead. We think most of the reason he wanted to play hockey was because of Bailey. Looking up to the older "step" brother. But he's only 6 so we expect it will take a while before he really knows what sport he wants to play.

Speaking of Bailey!

He's doing well. Hockey is still a passion in his life and he's doing very well at it! This summer he has decided to try Lacrosse as well. I'm a little worried about that! It's a rough sport and he's not the biggest guy on the team BUT Thomas will be coaching so I will be there cheering them both on!

That's about all I have right now. I'll try to get on here more often to update the events in my life!
