This being my first Christmas season in the public blogging arena, I didn’t know what to expect. Add to that the chatter about not posting or not being around much the last week of the year, and I didn’t know if there would be enough comments to make Dear You Guys a “go” this week….

My Wishes for 2011
I’m not a New Year’s Resolution Girl. I’m not sure why, and I don’t care if anyone else designates specific goals they hope to achieve in the coming year, but I just have never had the desire to do so. For me, looking forward to the new year means having wishes for my family. *For…

Gifts From My Honey
I’m not sure if my confession-of-sorts will be something you can relate to, or something that will make you say, “My goodness, you guys are seriously pathetic!” Oh well; here it goes… *Since having kids, we really haven’t gotten each other Christmas gifts.* {Gasp!} How bad are we?

I Caught Santa, and Nearly Got Caught Myself

You start by uploading a photo you’ve taken of…
Dear You Guys… #19
This past week wasn’t exactly ideal as far as composing a *funny* Dear You Guys letter is concerned. Sad posts aren’t very conducive to the traditional comment letter vibe, ya know? Because of that, this week’s letter is short and sweet. Also, we got THE best news ever when we heard from our vet on…
We’ve Been Elfed!

Why Christmas This Year Really Kinda Sucks
First it was the kids. And then the lumpy dog. And now it’s me and Craig. Thankfully, the kids are on the mend, but we did not get the best news on Jack after his surgery. The doc removed 6 lumps, and 2 were sent to the lab because they did not look like a…
