I can't believe how long it has been since my last post here. Yikes! I can't even begin to catch up on everything that has been going on. I think it is safe to say this blog is probably not going to be updated often anymore. There just aren't enough hours in the day.
However, you can still keep in touch. :) I still have my designing blog that is updated every so often. I am sure I will start my ramblings there, and I need to be better about updating it more often as it is. So, please come on over and leave me some comments there every so often. And feel free to grab some of my freebies while you are there! LOL I want to know how all of you are doing as well. :)

Things are going ok. The boys are having a lot of medical issues going on right now, some of which have me a bit worried, but I try not to panic unless I have to. Please keep them in your prayers, especially Joshua. The girls are doing great. My designing career is doing well, and I have been having thoughts of expanding into some other areas. Still not positive on that though. Time is my biggest factor right now. Handbells are a blast, and we have a conference coming up that I am really looking forward to.
So, I hope you will come over to my other blog and keep in touch over there. I miss everyone over here and you often cross my mind. I hope all is well with each of you. :) "Talk" to you soon!

How about some pictures?
It has been a while since I posted any, so I figured since I have nothing to really blog about, I'd post some pics. :) Just ignore the background. It was laundry day. LOL

How awful am I?
Yep, I'm a blogging slacker! I have never denied that, though. :P I really believe that I need about 36 hours to my day to get everything done. There is always a huge list of "to do" items on my list at the end of each day.
Things are somewhat improving with Joshua since my last post. He is doing better with concentrating on his schoolwork again, though we still aren't back 100% to where we were before our trip in February. It's crazy how two weeks can totally undo a year of hard work. I'm sure the spring weather is not helping his concentration level either. I think it is getting to all of us!
Jacob has been doing awesome on his math. It boggles my mind how we have struggled to get through adding and subtracting this year, and yet he totally rocks on the multiplying and dividing. I was talking to my little brother, Willie, about it last week and he replied that subtracting is HARD! He and Jacob are so similar in so many ways. Their brains do not work the same as mine, that's for sure! Willie is gifted and it wouldn't surprise me a bit if Jacob were to be tested that he would test highly.
The girls are well. Cassie was backtracking on the potty training after our trip, but I think we are finally back on track.
Silas and I attended a symphony concert last Friday. It was Russian night and they ended their regular program with Shostakovich's Fifth Symphony. I LOVE that piece!! So much fun to play, and even better to get to sit and hear the orchestra from the audience. It did get me missing my clarinet though. So I took it out this weekend, not remembering why I hadn't touched it in so long. Turns out one of the pads is missing. Ooops! So, I need to get that fixed up sometime, so I can get back into playing. :)
I will be taking Jacob to his first symphony concert next week. He's excited, as am I. I am hoping to start teaching him an instrument of some sort next year, and maybe this will help him to decide what he would like to learn.
Other than that, I have been designing like a mad woman. My new store is a store I thought was way out of my league and I only dreamed of selling in one day. I was so excited, shocked, and happy when they hired me! I had a CT call and have a group of about 8 ladies using my designs in their LOs. So exciting! I have separated my design blog from my personal blog for many reasons, so if you would like to peek at my designs and/or keep up with me over there as well, just shoot me an email and I'll send you the link. :)
Guess that is about all here. I need to get back to designing some before the kids get up from their naps and rest.
