Hello Again and These are my Sisters!

Hello again,
I have missed blogging more frequently.

Of course, a new year's goal for me is to blog more regularly.
We will see how I do for 2012.
You'll have to have low expectations for me, though.

It turns out taking care of 7 people and a house is about all I can do.
Just keeping everyone fed and clothed is about all I can handle at the moment.
I don't even mean fed and clothed well.
I just mean, feeding them cans of soup and hopefully having shoes, pants, and a shirt on.
Not even matching shoes at that.

Enough about that, though, I want to share with you a little about my sisters.

Here are my 4 sisters and I.

I'm quite lucky to have each of them!
I love that I come from a family of lots of sisters.
They each provide me with great insight, wisdom, and strong examples.
They are my heroes and great friends. 
From Left to Right: Sally, Molly, Karen, Stacey, and me


I was able to have a weekend with my mom and 4 sisters last Oct.
We had a great weekend eating chocolate
(we went on an eventful, interesting, delightful, chocolate tour in downtown Portland),
blabbing, shopping, eating, and relaxing.
