Hello and Happy New Year!

This Christmas has been great! We had family visiting and we had a blast. We started with a wonderful Christmas (the cookies were a hit! Yay!), a fun New Year, followed by our baby and my brother's baby's baptisms... and then it was off on a CRUISE!! Yes, we all went on a seven day cruise to the Eastern Caribbean. It was so much fun that no one wanted to come back! This was our first time on a cruise and I have to tell you, it was a lot of fun and so worth it. I definitely recommend it. I am already looking into another one for next year. Anyway, it's back to reality and back to my writing again... I just started doing articles for Helium, so I submitted my first one to them. Hopefully it will be published soon. I have added a link to Helium on the side bar of this blog if you want to check it out... I am also posting a couple of pictures of the cruise, the first one is of John and Emma on the ship's 3rd deck, the second one is of me holding Emma over the waves of a St. Thomas beach and the third is all of us having a Birthday Dinner for my dad on a nice restaurant in the ship. Talk soon!
