Blogiversary!

It's my blogs birthday today. Thought I was going to get this post up earlier today but it just didn't happen. I went back through and looked at all my posts. I've posted 136 times but I really didn't start actively posting until Dec 31, 2006. I have 174 comments on these posts. During this past year I've also walked (and now have biked) a total of 161.5 miles. Andy and I purchased new bikes for us a few weeks back. More on that later. We moved to Louisiana this past year which was a big move for all of us. We've been through a tornado, my parents and other loved ones have been through a terrible ice storm. We have had several visits back up to MO and my parents have made it down here to visit.

I have really enjoyed doing my blog as it has given me a time to reflect on what is going on in our lives. It is also fun to look back at what has happened. I enjoy sharing it all with you. I looked at a picture that I took last year at Sam's soccer game and wow has he ever changed! Here take a look:

And this is him now:

Yesterday was Mother's Day and I got the most wonderful present today. To some it may not seem like much but to me it was just perfect. My two guys washed my car for me. It has probably been over a year since it has been washed. So they got out there and scrubbed away. Take a look:

They went from washing the car to Sam riding his bike while Andy finished up and then sprayed him as he rode by.

All in all it's been a pretty good year. I'm looking to many more years posting on my blog. I also encourage all of you to start one. See what happens!
