The time between blog posts just zooms by--well actually--life in general has been zooming by. Hopefully once I get into the routine of school--things will start to slow down a bit--hopefully.





So--Kamryn started preschool last week and here is her first day of preschool photo.




She was soooo excited to go and had a fabulous time. She is going to the same preschool Karson went to. Children's Discovery Preschool--it is AWESOME!! Kam will do well with a structured learning environment. She already loves it. And today was the first day I had 3 hours to myself on my day off--in I don't know how long. AAAHHHHH so nice :) Did I get a ton done? no not really, excercised and run a bunch of errands--but it was nice without the drama princess for a little while.

So about a month ago my friend Noelle tagged me and I still havent done anything about it---so......here goes. Hopefully I can think of everything without too much pain.

8 things I'm passionate about
