New Year's Resolution

Ever since I graduated from school I have wanted to keep in touch more with my friends and family by writing more, also to keep a journal for the first time probably in 7 yrs. So to assist in that goal I will continue what my sister started for me by writing on this blog and hopefully those interested will read what I have to say. I have enjoyed my sister's and daughters post, so I've decided it's finally time for me to write instead of just reading everyone else's! The last 3 months since I remodeled Nicole's room and nursery, (which you can see on her blog which is at http://lovelylifeofmine.blogspot.com ) have been pretty busy with her and her birth, and brand new baby. It has been quite emotional to see her journey through this motherhood thing, but she has gotten pretty efficient at it all and is needing me less and less. Noel is a doll, I love her a lot. She is very attached to her great mom though, which is how it should be. I have also been to Utah during Thanksgiving week, visiting with some of my siblings. We also had Noel's blessing there so more family could be a part of it. It was very nice to have all of those there. Then, since Nicole was on maternity leave, I decided to take advantage of it and took her to San Francisco to visit my sister who lives near there. It was a very nice visit, and Nicole and I braved the BART into San Fran all by ourselves and did the whole tour thing. It was a great adventure! So that catches me up until christmas which I will post a separate post for.
