So Catching up is on the Agenda!!!
First of all.... My computer crashed WAY WAY WAY back in November so there has been no blogging for me.... Well with that said lets catch up...
The holidays Came and Went - Literally!! I think I blinked and it was over.... I really hate that because I love the holidays and all the fun things you can do and all the super fantastic memories you create but lets just hope my mind grabbed them all..... January started out Great and then slowly turned out Crazy as well as hectic... The kiddos got totally back into the swing of school, dance, band, and everything else.... We went and tried our hand at ice skating..Wow super fun but very hard to teach the kiddos all by myself and not to mention the day was ice cold - SO we called it quits and headed next door for some Serious Pizza and music - Ahhh Much better... Then next came Car Accident... SCARY for all... I was taking the kiddos to school when a lady turned right in front of us and i hit her head on going 40mph.. Tallyn was in the front seat with me and I think my child's bruise was due to his mother Karate chopping his chest ( like all moms do when you need to stop quick) to hold him back- as if that would really help... But needless to say I was SOOOOO grateful that Tallyn nor Skyler were hurt ( just a few bumps) Me, well i did a major number on my back and neck and find myself Now in therapy twice a week...NOT FUN!!! I got my car back- runs not so good but at least it works although seeing how it was new is a bummer for me and hopes of selling it anytime soon...... So then we are into February and well Wow- did we even have February?? Really, Seriously- did we? I have been Slammed with work ( of course LOVE IT) and all my clients are keeping me running all over the place which I absolutely LOVE... I am even coming to the conclusion that I love Kaysville...ha ha - yes all but one client live up there so i drive their alot.... Now come march and it is starting out with a bang!! Yes... I am going to New York.... oh yea a childhood dream comes true... I will not be spending to much time on the fantastic Streets or too much shopping all the fabulous Stores but that's okay- less money spent for me..lol But I will be there hosting a booth with my cute co-worker and friend Shyanne. We are headed there for Persnickety clothing- Yes I do this too and love it!! I am so excited to say that our once little shop in the South towne mall that struggled to stay up and running.. Did Close... I had a brief time where i was out of a job... but then jumped right back in because our owners went to market and tried the clothing line in a wholesale environment and landed a huge retailer of children's clothing.. Chasing fireflies... with all that said we started with 40 shops (mostly in the south- which I knew would happen) and have now grown to over 175 stores across the country and growing Daily.... The Rickenbah Family has had great success and Corine is amazing in her designs and I am amazed at how they just keep getting better and better- Wow- such a talent!!! Needless to say- even though i have two totally different careers in my life I really do love Both.. when the time comes for me to choose one i am not sure how i will but for now Grateful is all i am....
Ugh, my dreaded birthday is soon to arrive and the thought of getting another year older is killing me.... It can come and go without a word and i will be Just Fine:) We are also entering in to Skylers Competition time for Dance so many weekends are ahead of us for traveling around the valley watching hours and hours of dancers compete... I get a high watching her preform as well as choked up EVERY SINGLE TIME... why- well I am so proud of her doing this and loving it as much as i did as a child but more than that I cannot believe how she has grown up so fast.... Last night she fell asleep on my lap and I just watched her and thought to myself, she is not a baby anymore and she is turning 8...where did it go?? Tallyn said to me the other day.." Mom, can you even stand it, you are going to have an 8 yr old and a teenager in just a few months"... I replied- or shall i say was quiet... Yes folks- I, Me, had nothing to say... I cannot believe it and do not Want to believe it.... I think that this is when it starts to be hard to be a parent - we have to watch our kiddos grow up, learn mistakes on their own, find out new ways to do better( on their own), and watch them HOPEFULLY flourish into outstanding individuals with Always Good intentions.....
I have huge plans, hopes, and many adventures planned for this remaining year and Hope to be able to Conquer them all.... I hope you All have a fantastic day and Thanks for taking the time to read my thoughts!!!
I will post some pictures Today and more to come:)
