Brave

Brave is my one little word for the year.  I am not a brave person. I shy away from things that scare me. I want to try new things but to do that I have to be brave. The first brave thing I am going to do seems kinda silly. I am going to learn to paint. I have wanted to learn for years. What has always stopped me is being afraid that I am going to tottally suck at it and it will be a big waste of time and money. I am going to paint at least one picture a month. Hopefully they will all turn out at least ok. That leads me to another thing I have to be brave about. Learning to accept that painting is art. Some people might LOVE it and other might hate it. But I have to be brave enough to show it off. That will be one of the hardest things for me.
Happy New Year everybody.

Blogging

Oh how a suck at it. 
Once again I going to try it again.

I am SO not good at blogging

But I am going to try and be better at it.
Today I talked to Brian, he should have 2 days home before heading out for more training. It looks like he will have the month of July off before heading out again for more training and the sandbox. From there he should be home in October so he can be here for the birth of the baby. then we would mostlikey not see him again till sep, 2011. I am really not likeling the military life I have right now.

Here are some of the digi lay that I have been working on I am REALLY liking digi because I can do it in the same room as the kids and can work on it anywhere til the battery dies. Now just to net work computers so I can store more digi stuff or get a little hard drive like Brian's

Here are some pictures of the kids playing in the first snow of the year. We got over 6 in. The kids loved every minute of it. Kari got so tried that she started to fall asleep in the snow but then got up and played some more.

Well just I little update. We have 16 days here in TX left. The house is almost packed. I NEED to go and get a few more boxes. I will do that tomorrow sometime. We are SO happy to be headed about to Utah. We are also talking about what we are going to do where we are going to stay. (Mom we will be staying with you but brian also wants to stay a few days with his grandparents.)
Other then that last night I told Kari night night and went to finish my movie in their room (she was with Brian on the sofa) and I hear when I am about half way down the hall "night night. night night mama" SO right there I KNOW she can talk she just doesn't want to.]
OH and then There are the pics of the kids B in his daddy beret and K playing in the bushes in front of the house
