New Year's Blog Hop

Come join Scrapbook Challenge's New Year's Blog Hop! To welcome the New Year and meet the new Scrapbook Challenges Design Team & reconnect with some of the returning DT Members. As well as, our new home over on ning.

Where have I been.....

I know that I haven't posted in a while.

Life has gotten really crazy for me lately. Let's see -- we moved to a new place in October. All the kids got real sick, they are all well now. DH got really sick - we had a real scare with him. Thank God! he is all better now. I have been well real sick myself. No telling when I'll be better.

Then the holidays came and we got right into celebrating that I just didn't stop by to post. Now a new year will be here and I am hoping for all good things.
