First Blog Entry Ever

Okay, here it finally is. My first official blogger entry ever...I have been a dedicated blog reader for quite a while now and I am wondering just what it is that I will be posting in my very first entry. I should start off by saying that I always look forward to reading my favorite blogs the way I anticipate the latest release of my favorite magazines each month. I get refreshed and energized from them with new ideas. the pictures and articles are really motivating. When I log into these blogs after a couple of days (sometimes weeks) I am even disappointed when there are no updated blog entries that occur from time to time when one is off living their life. Yes, this is my stay at home momminess I find my blog reading to be an indulgence right up there with eating chocolates, I enjoy it. I am a pretty simple person and easily pleased. It is the little things that make me a happy girl.

Now, with all of that said, I have to explain my intentions for this blog of mine. I hope to make this a sort of online diary of the things that I love, and even some of the things that I don't love so much. I think it will be neat to be able to go back into my blog a year or two from now and read an entry from a particular holiday or even a regular ordinary day and recall what it was that inspired me to post about it. Remembering how I decorated my Christmas tree that one year with all of those handmade ornaments that took hours upon hours to complete (yes I have done this several times and not didn't even take a picture before passing them to a friend). There was also a few parties I had for my children that would have been so nice to be able to post about, the fairy tea party for my middle child, S.L., all those handmade fairy wings and chocolate wands or the cowboy party for my son, J.D., when I made those goody bags of cowboy cookies and we crafted sheriff stars. Yes, I roll like that. I hope to also post some simple things in my life that I greatly appreciate. My daughter doing homework silently at the kitchen table, painting my kitchen a new color, a great recipe that I tried and loved. All the things that I like about the blogs that I read myself.

Well now that I have rambled on for two paragraphs, I will try to get up and runnin by posting a few times a week...we'll see how that goes with a family to run.
