Spoiled Mama

Have I ever mentioned that I have the bestest friends and family and husband and kids ever??.....Well if I haven't I do! :)

Yesterday I attended the ESU's All Staff Day at WSC.  It's always nice to see everyone since I am located...well, in the middle of nowhere.  I don't have a lot of connections with other specialists and when I do it's a short time, passing in the hallway, quick chat.  Thank you e-mail for keeping us in contact....Oh and if you are an ESU Staff and reading this-USE YOUR ICHAT!!! :)

We had an amazing speaker yesterday!  Eddie Slowiski had us dancing on the table's by 10:30, singing, laughing, crying, reflecting, dreaming.  Honestly-it was by far the best speaker I have ever heard!  He told us that there are ups and downs.  It's life.  Not everything is peachy.  He also talking about living and dreaming and reaching your goals.  Loved it!

This year has already been a roller coaster for us!  Since 2013 I have missed 5 1/2 days because of sickness!  The stomach bug decided to take two tours around our house in the last month.  We've also battled with strep and virus' and icky gunk!  That is not fun!  But, life is a roller coaster.  There will be suffering.

There will also be some pretty amazing times too!  When I look back on the last month, that's what I really remember!  Here's our January "highlight reel"! The good times that we will look back on with a smile!

 Mama got her ring fixed and back!!
 Worked on my OCD issues by letting Hunter mix the colors of play-doh :)
 It got warm enough to go ride horses
 And when it was too cold to go out, we got in some good cuddle time!
 Got to have a sleepover w/ a great friend like we were in junior high again!
 Blake put on a fashion show!
 2 of my bestest boys!
 And got completely spoiled by the man below!  He bought me the lens that I have wanted forever!!! A Nikon 50mm 1.8/f.  The 3 Thiry One bags were a gift from out ECSE Christmas party, the ipad3 was from work (so no I didn't have to pay for it) to replace my ipad1..and the fun frame calendar was from a fun Pinterest night where I got to hang and talk to other ladies, girls...no that's not right either (I'M OLD), Mommy friends and have fun!
Hope everyone else can look back on their January and smile!

We are starting Febraury off right with a date night tonight and family time tomorrow along with friend time and the Super Bowl tomorrow night!!!
