Well, It's About Time!

I have an accumulating list of events for which I would like to email pictures to family and friends.  But life isn't slowing down, and the list just gets longer.  While Libby has gotten to an age (almost 9) of being extremely helpful and responsible, and Addie is becoming more and more so every day, Ben and Carol aren't quite there.  They both tend to leave a trail of destruction like the Tasmanian Devil.  Ben is willing to clean up after himself, just not very strong on follow-through.  We just finished our home school year and Rich has finished his school year, but we are beginning work on an addition to our house, which needs to be worked on as much as possible by Rich to get it livable by the time school starts again in the fall.  And I will need to help him and pick up the slack of chores that normally fall to Rich to help the process.  So where is the free time I was hoping for to catch up on sending pictures to those who love us and want to share our experiences?  I'm thinking maybe keeping a blog of these photos might be  more efficient...  Whether it ends up saving any time or not, I think we are more or less still in the stone age by emailing pictures rather than blogging. So here we are showing up to 2012 a little late.  But better late than never, right?

First offering:  Video of Libby's violin Recital. She played one of the most advanced songs at the concert and did a perfect job.  Next post: Addie's piano recital.
