OK Thats better

Since I have changed my blog to not be apart of the blogger home page and to not be found by search engines it appears most of my hits are local. I will be keeping a close eye on who is viewing my blog and if I am still concerned about its safety I will then go private. I didn't want to because of the ease of it being public. I post stories about myself and my family so I don't just want the random Joe checking in on my life but I guess that's what can happen when you have a blog.

Well I am just sitting and relaxing with the girls while they watch Super Readers on PBS Kids. I am thinking of everyone on this New Years Eve and hoping everyone has a fun and safe night.

Blog Update

Well a friend of mine suggested to block my blog from search engines and also from the blogger home page. So we will see if this fixes the problem. Nothing really bad has happened it was just a little freaky that there were so many places opening my blog than I don't know anyone at. No stalkers or anything, Thankfully.
If I go private I will make sure I add all of you that have requested too have permission.

Private Blog

Hello my wonderful Blog Readers,

I wanted to inform you that sometime this week I am going to set my blog to private. So please email me or send me a message via face book so I can give you permission to my blog. I have had a lot of unusual views lately. This blog is intended for my friends and family only so the only way to keep it safe is to make it private.
Its so weird I have had people from Malaysia, Brazil, Iran, Chile, Spain, and some US states that I do not know anyone from checking in on my blog. At first I thought some of it could have been from search engines pulling up my blog from a keyword search but there is just more and more strange places checking in so Private we will go.

You will most likely have to sign up at blogger.com for a Free account to view my blog. Sorry for any inconvenience this lay have caused.

Congrats to my BIL and SIL

They are expecting baby #3 in 2009. I am wishing my SIL a healthy pregnancy all the way through!

Merry Christmas 2008

This Christmas was so very wonderful. I feel so lucky and blessed to have such wonderful friends and family to have spent this time with. Morgan was so excited to get her very own pink cash register from Grandma & Grandpa.
Sydney just loved the shopping cart and grocery food that Grandma & Grandpa got her.

What a wonderful family picture.

Happy Birthday Corbin!

Saturday we had the pleasure of being invited to Corbin's 6th Birthday Party. It was a fun afternoon of bowling, pizza, cake, & presents(of coarse).

Morgan picked out the very best ball...a PINK one!Here she goes!
Finally Pizza time with her best bud on his birthday!

Christmas is not complete without a visit from Christine

On Christmas Eve though the snowy weather Christine managed to fly from California to Chicago and then on a bus to Rockford. Finally a short drive from her Mom's house to ours on a snowy day. Poor girl got lost on her way here but finally made it. We spend the morning sipping Green Tea and making Thumbprint and Peanut Butter Kisses Cookies. What a great start to Christmas Eve! She has to leave us too soon to join her family and then we had my family over at our house.
