today is your birthday...

Happy 2nd birthday Alexis! Another cherished day for The Other Tull's, she is a blessing.

2012

Happy New Year! It's here, ready or not...for me it's not but here we go. The excitement at this house is to watch Steve file FAFSA for the kids, not even waffles. Well, we will at a normal breakfast time. The new year and the kids both in for the night...who told us that this would be impossible. Hahah, they're here and we are enjoying them. What a way to bring in 2012!

a little behind...okay, a lot behind

It's Dec. 18th already. Side note, it's Hayden Dervalis' birthday. Happy 19th, I miss seeing you. Today we are having a family game night...biggest yet since all the kids are home for the holiday. We are going to show our competitiveness and give a hoot for Jordan's birthday that just passed.
Christmas is a week away...and NO, I'm not ready. We have shopping yet and then of course ALL the wrapping. One day it will all be done ahead of time and all we will have to do is sit back and relax. Someday.
My husband has been after an update. Here it is. He knows what has been going on. He knows how to type...and knows how to hit "enter." I certainly would welcome a guest blogger, lol. Let's see how long before the next entry...

is there a holiday I don't know about?

Jordan is off for 3 days...plus the weekend, that's five days! Whose idea was that? Whoever must not have their own children...must not have a teenager! I can loan mine out if anybody is interested.
I went to the high school for conferences...I don't know who needs the moral support more, them or me. How do get a 3%?! As a senior my son should know how to turn in his assignments. Enough said? You would think so but I think this is going to be a very long year. Graduation is close but not close enough.
Does the movie "Failure to Launch" come to mind? I do not want that to be my reality. Yikes. Unconditional love, if I just keep repeating this...

blood drive

Blood drive at the high school today...so many signed up and so many not & wanting to be! The event started off a bit behind schedule and the kids did quite a bit of waiting. They had lots of patience though and stuck it out. There were kids who were there for more than two hours to complete their process. For some this wasn't their first time and for others it was a bit outside of their comfort zone. A great job by all who gave blood and those who gave of their time to help.

time to update.

you know it's bad when your daughter has two new posts and you have none.

Happy Birthday to Ninnie

My twin, she is older and I kept the world waiting 8 years 363 days. Don't let her fool you, she wants to be the younger twin. Happy birthday to you Ninnie.
