Learning Something New

First of all, I would like to preface this blog by saying that I am by no means a professional writer.  One of my hopes in blogging is to enhance my writing skills.  In other words, if you come across any grammatical errors or typos please overlook them as I am a work in progress.  :) 

Another reason I decided to blog was to write about our daily experiences as a family for fun.  Those of you who know me well would probably say that I just enjoy hearing myself talk...haha.  There is a method to my madness...the idea kind of reminds me of making family videos.  These "stories" will someday be what we and our children can look back on and enjoy just like watching those old home videos.  I will be able to write about the memories that we are creating everyday, and those of you who aren't quite as close to us geographically as we would like can also enjoy our experiences and stay up to date on our family.  :)

I must be perfectly honest and say that there will be plenty of times I'm sure that my posts will have nothing to do with family, but will be more of a random ranting of whatever happens to be on my mind (that's where the part about me hearing myself talk comes into play...).  That is definitely to be expected so I'm giving a fair warning.  So if you're more interested in Jon and the kids you can just bypass those posts...just don't tell me....

I also do not know how often I will be able to post as of right now, but I hope that it will be frequent.  As you can imagine, life with a husband, three small kids, and 2 cats demands much of my attention.  Fortunately for all of my faithful followers though, I am a wonderful multi-tasker!  (no applause necessary)  So, we will give it a shot and see how it goes.  That's all for now...

  1. Great idea to start a blog! Okay, I really don't have much to say but I thought it would be cool to be the first person to comment. Now you won't have to see "0 Comments:" anymore. that's kinda depressing after all. =)

  2. Great first entry! I think you are a good writer. I will be following your blog so better be careful what you say.

    I look forward to "hearing" you talk. It's a great way to find out what's going on down there since our schedules don't always allow phone time at the same time.

    I will also comment each time. I agree with Melissa, no one wants to see "0 Comments".

  4. Well, what can I say? I'm pretty popular down in these parts...not really lol--I put a link on facebook and several of my friends have read it. You should publish yours to your facebook page everytime you blog. Thanks for comments too!
