New Year...New Resolution :)

So, I decided that I have been a really bad blogger...it has been 4 months since I last posted. So my resolution for this year is to do better. It should be rather interesting. Matt starts a new job this week Friday....on 2nd shift and will also be working part time at Craft a few mornings a week as well. Also, I will probably be starting to work part time as well, but from home for a friend of mine in Maryland, and I will still be helping my sister out with her Etsy shop as well as keep up on my own crafts and Etsy shop. So I will do the best that I can with keeping my Blog updated. Here are some Christmas pictures of the kids.
