Update!

Where do I start? On August 31, 09, J.R. was officially released from probation. YAY!!! I can't tell you what a relief that was! He is a free man! He has accomplished so much and is finally able to enjoy life with no restrictions. It's been a long road for him, but he has done so well & paid his dues. Way to go babe!

I can't believe the holidays are already here... Where has the year gone?? I love this time of year though. I love the weather changing & the colors of the trees... I love baking & this time of year is perfect for it. I can't wait to get in the kitchen & start baking all the holiday goodies~!

This year, all of my family is coming to Idaho for Christmas. I can't wait! My brother will be here with his wife and my little niece. My oldest sister and her wife are coming, along with my cousin who lives in California. I love Christmastime because J.R.'s family celebrates Christmas on the 24th, so it is really nice to not have to choose which family to spend Christmas with. We get the best of both worlds..and 2 Christmas'! I was able to take a few days off for vacation the week of Christmas, so I will be able to spend some more time with my family. I can't wait!!

Although it's not official...I am going to break the new anyway!!!....My sister Tami is going to be getting married!!! I am SO happy for her. She was introduced to a guy named Jason aka "Mace".. and they hit it off really well. He is so good to her & I couldn't be happier. She has waited a long time for this & I can see it in her eyes she is truly happy. I will be posting more about it wedding etc.. as details come & as the Maid of Honor I will have lots to share!! Yay, I love wedding planning!!

Although I love fall..I HATE the flu season. This year seems to be pretty bad with the swine flu and all... I caught another bout of Pneumonia a couple weeks ago..and although it wasn't as bad as in March, it was still not fun. I am doing better though and feeling fine. JR was sick also a couple weeks ago, and for those that know him, know he rarely gets sick. He was down for a week or so & we finally went to the DR and thank goodness it wasn't the swine flu. It was some nasty virus that also happens to be going around. Hopefully we are done with it for the season. There are so many people out there right now sick & its pretty tough to not be around it since I work at a Medical Credit Union. Uggh.. I have stocked up on sanitizer though & it seems to be helping. Hopefully you & your families are all well~!

Well, thats all I can think of at this moment to update on...sorry we don't lead exciting glamorous lives!! :) I hope all of you are safe & well......

Happy Blogging~!
