Keepin' up with the Jones' (or trying to...)



Hi, my name is Janan, and I have been a blogging slacker!! :o

Well, I feel better getting that one off of my chest... ;)

In the past two months, we have celebrated a very special 9 years old's birthday, helped my father-in-law move out (he was staying with us for a little while while he was in between homes), had enough stomach bugs and sinus infections for a small army (I guess we kind of are one ;) ), finished unpacking and did some room shifting, all while trying to homeschool and take care of the normal day to day jobs a stay at home, homeschooling mommy of 5 has. Whew...I'm tired just thinking about last month. It was not only exhaustingly busy, but completely chaotic due to lack of organization on my part.

So with that being said, this month is going to be probably even CRAZIER!?!?!?! (Yes, crazier!) My calendar is looking back at me like "really lady...again".

Organization is key to my sanity and my family's survival ;) this month. So back to the old grind this week... :)

I can't leave you without sharing some pictures of Trey's Mario Birthday Party. It was a blast!!







Blessings and Love!!
