A test / crazy day.

So I have not been posting on my blog for quite a while because, let's be honest, I have 6 kids and a LOT on my plate.

So I was sitting here thinking about that while checking Facebook from my phone and realized that maybe they make an app so I can post on my Blog as well. Yeah I know, sometimes I can be really behind in things.

So here I am, getting ready for the next crazy 36+ hours of the Christmas season that I willingly do now 2 years in a row.

A couple if years ago the community worker at my kids elementary school had a great idea of taking all the kids pictures with Santa and then sending them home with them so every kid in the school would have a photo for Christmas.

After seeing how crazy it was for since she was still having to be in charge of the rest if the event I volunteered my time and services to take the photos last year. I bought a really nice background for it and thought I was good.

Now being the person I am, I wanted these photos to look awesome so after I was done taking the 158 family group photos at the school I went home and just made sure each and every one of them looked their best and it took all night but I managed to do it and get them printed to head home with the kids the next day. It felt great to feel that tired and see so many happy faces.

Well I am choosing to do it again this year but with the added stress that after it it is all do e on Friday I still need to go take my computer exam for taxes right away. Not sure if I will be thinking straight after this to pass that exam but it will be worth it even if I do have to do a rewrite.

It means even more to me this year after the tragedy in Newtown last Friday. Ones so little should not have gone through this but they live on in their loved ones memories and if my losing a few hours sleep means I can help keep memories for families here then every minute is worth it.

Well here is hoping to a smooth day.

Enjoy the photo I took of my crazy 6 kids last year. Can't wait to see how the one this year turns out
