Umm, hello there

I kind of feel like it's been a while, and I need to reintroduce myself to cyber space. My name is Jamie. People call me Jamie. I'm a mom, a coke lover, and I ate an entire box of white cheddar cheez-its for lunch today. Well, that's pretty much sums it up. Now onto an update:

Christmas came and went in a flash. We had a wonderful week with the boys out of school and John off work. Life revolved around lounging, eating, sledding, friends, museums, rock climbing and all sorts of good stuff. The boys are back to school and I have Sadie all to myself! Here's a few snaps of winter break for your viewing pleasure:

Christmas!!! Both boys got DSi's, and were thrilled.
Sadie got too many things to list. I'm hoping her favorite was the kitchen that I made for her. Post of that is forthcoming!
I was a little afraid that Christmas wouldn't be as magical for Jackson this year because he now knows who Santa really is. I was wrong, a DSi is always a magical thing, no matter where it comes from!


Sadie couldn't get enough of the chocolate fondue we made on Christmas eve.
Maxers ready to dig in!

The boys showing off their muscles and new pajama pants.
This is the first outfit Sadie has ever chose and insisted on wearing! She kept saying pretty! pretty! (and she is right)


It's now a frigidly cold January and I'm so glad to get back into our regular routine! (i never thought I'd say that...I'm usually a fly by the seat of my pants kind of girl) Hopefully I'll be posting more regularly because I like to stay at home and surf the web uh, er I mean blog stalk when it's this cold and dreary. I say hopefully because of the aforementioned flying by the seat of my pants that I like to do. Happy January everyone!

Looks like your Christmas break was mirror of ours.

I liked the time off with the kids without the whole work thing.

The chocolate fondu was awesome. I would leave out of the part about polishing off the box of yummy... it creates a formal record of eating.

Welcome back to the blog-o-sphere! I've been meaning to tell you how much I LOVED your Christmas card! Letting Jackson write it was the best idea ever! Taber and I were cracking up. When we finished reading it I said, "that was awesome." and he said, (direct quote) "yeah, Jamie's just cool like that." Glad you guys had a fun and relaxing holiday! Looking forward to more posts from the Parrish fam : )

She does have good taste! Thanks for the Pretty Pretty dress Sarah!

Also, I only ate 1/2 a box of of cheez-its...I was just being dramatic. Yes, I did just say only.
