Happy Birthday To Me!!!!

Saturday was my 34th Birthday and I thought a lot about all the things that I have wanted to do in the last 10 years that I have yet to accomplish.  I made a list and hope to at least make it through 1/2 of it by my 35th! 
No. 1 on my list was a Tattoo!!!  I have wanted one since I turned 18, but for numerous reasons, including my mom is totally against it I never did it.  Well the wait is over.  On Sunday we packed up the kids and drove over to Pt. Pleasant where we engaged my In-laws to watch our little ones and to the Tattoo parlor we went.  Long story short, there was over an hour wait for the tattoo artist I wanted so Ryan took the kids back home and yes I went and got my very 1st Tattoo with my MIL Catherine!  It was fun, she made me laugh so hard that I thought I was going to cry from it.  When I thought I was going to jump off the chair when he started it, she looked at me and told to sit the hell down and do it. 
I do have to say…..it HURT, HURT, HURT, HURT like hell, but it was so worth it!

A New Beginning …

 

Yesterday while browsing my favorites on my computer I came across the link for this long forgotten blog.  It took me completely by surprise how much I actually cherish being able to read all the old posts and see exactly what was going on at that time in my life.  The truth of the matter is that as much as we think that we will remember all the little things in our daily life with not only our children but within us, the opposite is actually true. 

I made myself a promise for the new year that I will start to blog every week and try to record all the little things that are going on in our lives.  It is really going to be more of a “diary” for us and I will try to either print the blog every year or every other year.  It will be nice to be able to sit back and read it all with my children as they get older. 

And so today it is the “New Beginning” for me and our family stories.  I can’t wait to see what we will have accomplished in 2010!

Happy New Year to all!
