Birthday time!!!

Happy Birthday to ALICIA!!! I always tell her she is old. A big 33 this year for her. She has been working so hard at the books this semester and hasn't had a lot of time to do things she likes to do. She is a champ for sticking to it! I wish I could climb into her body and take some of the pain from her fibromyalgia. Its hard even for me to see how much pain she is in. But she still amazes me that she can do so much. I know she wishes, especially for her birthday wishes, that she could do more if she didn't have this pain. She loves playing with her boys and hanging out with friends and family. She loves crafting, scrapbooking, cooking, blogging, being outside, music, camping, and many more things that she wishes she could do more of.

I just want her to know how much I love her! She is the most amazing woman! She thinks about others before she thinks about herself. She listens when someone else is in need talking. She uses her many talents to help others such as: sewing, cardmaking, scrapbooking, piano, cooking and taking meals to people, reading to young kids, having patience for people like me, and many others. She is a strength, not a weakness! She is my strength, my better half, my beautiful, my babe, my love, my eternal companion! I love you and will always love you! Life would not be the same without you! I hope you have a wonderful birthday!

Back to School

I think this picture answers all the questions of what I have been doing and why I have been too busy to post any of our new family pictures or all of the fun things we did over Christmas break. Eventually those pictures will come, but for now. . . . . . . .
