Ketchup

I haven't had much time to blog lately and I apologize. I spend lots of time on twitter and facebook, though. So if you want to know what I am doing on a daily basis find me there. If not, well then it's time to "ketchup" on everything that's been happening around here.

Tyler turned 14 last week. I still find it hard to believe that I am a mom to a 14 year old. Not only that he is 5' 10" tall! Seriously, I measure him just last night. We took this picture at the river yesterday and I was wearing heels! Holy cow, he is getting tall!

Me and Tyler, July 6, 2009

I made cookies (they were so good and looked it I had to post a picture!)
We had friends over this past weekend. Or more precisely Logan had a friend stay Friday night. Tristan stayed with a friend Saturday and then the friends stayed with the boys on Sunday.

We had a 4th of July cookout (in the rain) to celebrate our nation's independence. I told my husband that I made too much food to let it go to waste! LOL We had fireworks, food and fun!
I have had another back injection (failed) and physical therapy (failed) and back brace (failed). I go see a specialist in August to determine if I need back surgery. Until then I am in an intense amount of pain that makes me very grumpy. I tried to do my best to not be but that is not always possible.

I am not doing well in my summer classes specifically because I just don't have time. I did not complete my mid-term for ANPII this summer so I guess I failed that class. I am also two assignments behind in my American Civ class. I just don't have time for school right now.

Oh well, such is life.

I still am very blessed to have the people in my life that I do. I have a wonderful family, an amazing husband, awesome children and great friends. I am so very thankful!

Now you are all "ketched up"!
Take care and be blessed,
Chris
