Alright - so here I am - starting a blog! My sister, Amanda, has been trying to get me to start a blog for a while, so I probably won't tell her for a while I have started one until I get this established. I am sure it will take me a while to figure things out as to how to post and put up pictures and stuff, but I'm sure it won't be bad. The main reason for my starting this blog is to begin journaling more for my kids. I worry I don't write enough down about their early life - I'm HORRIBLE about taking pictures and keeping baby books up to date and stuff, but I think maybe if I start blogging, then I can print these out to be part of their baby books and some day they will appreciate me 'giving in to the dark side' and creating a blog.
I figure my first post can be about Halloween this year. My kids were soooo cute! Obviously they were the cutest ones out there! My son, Joey, was a fireman. He won't stop talking about it! He especially loved the hatchet. Thank you to my sister for allowing me to borrow the costume! And my daugter, Savanna, was a cow! That was a hand-me-down from Joey's first Halloween in 2005. So this year I spent $0 on costumes! Priceless! And both were so cute. As always, Joey got WAY too much candy! He thought when we got home he would get to eat it all. In his words "I eat my candy all gone mommy?" Ha - try convincing a 3 year old that that's just not how it works! I did fairly well not eating much candy though - I had committed myself to not eat any at all - well - that didn't happen, but I did good to not eat too much!
At any rate, wish me luck at this whole blogging thing - I know my blog will be a LONG time in the making, but hopefully it won't be a total flop!

Woohoo! I am your first commenter! I am so proud of you!!! :):) Actually, I think it looks great! Way less lame then my first post! You even have pictures on your first post!

Sara! I'm happy for you and your blog. :) I also have the plan to print my blog as a journal for my children. I found a website that converts websites to PDFs, so it saves the pictures and backgrounds and colors and everything, then you can print it more easily, but I don't remember what the site is! haha I'll have to look up html to pdf converters. Anyway, I look forward to reading more about your family.
YAY! You have a blog now! Your first post is awesome...mine was just how I got married...lol! I cannot believe a little over a year ago Trent and I hooked up again...crazy how time flies!
