just a little bit

well, i'm new to this blogging thing. i just never can seem to keep up with it on a regular basis. i guess i could start off by saying that i am so blessed right now. a whole bunch of things have happened since the beginning of the year, and it feels like i'm in a neverending whirlwind, but honestly, i wouldn't trade it for anything. Allen and i have been truly blessed and I couldn't be more thankful for the way things are right now (even if they are a little hectic). we just got back from mexico, had a blast!!, and are excited to get back next year. our little girl has grown so much over the past year, and it was good to see all the kids again. i wouldn't even trade the carsickness for it--more to follow on that later--

right now, i am getting ready to be done with summer school (thank goodness!!), and i will have my official summer break, that is, until school starts in 3 weeks..but hey it's a break, so i can't complain too much. allen's been working on his and russ' new adventure, a concierge business, this whole summmer--and they start next month, so they're trying to tie up all the loose ends before they start. fortunately, he does have a new car to use for the business, which i am happy about because the last one was the worst. european cars stink! but with a new car comes new car payments, and more stress, but isn't that all part of being a grown up and responsible??

i guess i better get off here--i'll post some mexico pics when i get a chance.
