My blogiversary is today!

Well 1 year ago today I decided to start this blog. I have been so bad about keeping in touch & writing here but when I look back I'll remember how busy I have been since Nursing school started....won't I?

So what's news lately...?
KT tirned 14! I can't believe it! She had to friends spend the night MO & EW. They ordered pizza & played Disney Scene it & phase 10 twist, watched movies & played wii. Then Saturday morning (her b-day) we went shopping for her new bed linens, and we went to dinner at Cheddars. Then Monday (MLK day) the 3 of us girls went to see the bedtime stories movie..it was better tahn we were expecting!

This weekend we are looking forward to our 3rd weekend in a row with no traveling.

I think i have carpal tunnel in my right wrist. Well atleast according to the test we have done in my nursing class, and that it hurts all the time & turns cold & numb when I type or write for too long. It has even awoken me in the middle of the night if my wrist gets bent while I sleep.
I'll have to have that checked out soon.
Other than that things are going along smoothly here.

The high school posted some pics of KT swimming...here is that link

New Year's resolution...


To keep up with my blogs!
I'm sure you all understand the hectic life I lead because you also lead one but now that I ma back on schedule I will try to be better.
When last I wrote We left & spent the week of Christmas in Orlando @ Disney World & there are so many pictures to sort through. I will try to post a few here in the next few days but 6 days...there are alot of pictures.
We arrived in Orlando Sunday evening & went to Downtown Disney & ate at an italian restaraunt that was awful & very pricey! Great Disney store though!
Monday the 4 Hammonds went to Universal Studios..great fun! My favorite part was teh Mummy ride! KT & I rode it twice! (all inside) I aslo enjoyed the Jaws boat ride:The parade was good. I loved this snowman he was HUGE & we were right on the street:

Here is Katie with these "who" girls on stilts. The stilt thing was quite popular.I'm not a huge scooby fan but he was so cute as rudolf!
The next day we went to Universal Islands of adventure. This was KT's favorite day b/c of all the roller coasters! This was her favorite The Hulk!We even found a 3D roller coaster type ride that EM loved Spiderman
Jurrasic Park was here with rides & all kinds of dinosaur stuff.
Here is EM always the drama queen! She loves "hamm"ing it up for the camera. hahahaha
My favorite part had to be:
I loved the Dr. Suess stuff so much fun. We watched How the grinch stole Chritmas. KT & I met the grinch but our pics did not turn out... :(
