Finally a new post!

Okay, so I know that I have not posted anything for a while now. It has been super crazy around here. We have been putting up our Christmas tree, going to ballet, watching it snow, going to ballet, having Hailee's 9th birthday party, going to ballet, Christmas shopping, going to ballet, and oh yeah, going to ballet. We have been having ballet of some form at least three times, sometimes more, a week! I went to opening night of the Nutcracker with my mom and mother-in-law. Hailee did such a wonderful job!! It was so cool to see her up on stage, being part of something that was so cool. Sorry, but they won't let me take pictures of her in her costume. I will try to scan one in when I get their pictues back.

I have been woking about 30 hours a week on top of everything else. I did love to sit at my desk and look right out the window and see the snow falling, and sticking to the trees outside. I love the look of the snow on the bare tree branches.

Hailee had a great birthday, she invited her entire school class to the party, I know, crazy mom. It was lots of fun, we played BINGO, and opened presents, ate cake, played the Wii and shoveled the driveway like 10 times in the two hours so that they would not fall on the way to their cars.

Here is a slide show of some pics of what has been going on. There is still one more performance that Hailee is in this year. Saturday, December 20th at 7:30, the performances last about one hour and 45 minutes I think. It is my turn to stay home with Issac, but Todd will be there. You can buy tickets at the door, they are $12 for adults, and $8 for kids, not bad for the Nutcracker! It is a wonderful show, they do a great job! Hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season, hopefully I will be able to post again before Christmas, but if I don't, I love you all, and wish you a Merry Christmas!!
