Hello!

I have been hesitant to reenter the blogging world because I have yet to construct a formal plan to control the amount of time I spend here and quite frankly the break has been kind of nice. I have read a couple of good books and been checking projects off the list. School has started and routine and schedules have begun to take hold of our days. It is always sad for me to say good bye to summer but after three months of craziness I am welcoming routine back into my life. Besides the weather is still beautiful and that makes me smile. The pic is from our trip to Bear World in August. We had an amazing vacation and I have a ton of pics and video that need to be edited and posted but I am pacing myself.
Charlie made up a song that we call "The Happy Song" it goes something like this..."Happy, happy, happy, happy, happy, mama, happy, happy, happy, happy, Georgie, happy, happy, happy, happy, daddy, happy, happy, happy, happy, Darc, happy, happy, happy, happy, happy, happy, nannie, happy, happy, happy, happy..." He sings it while riding in the car. George has become really awesome at going potty (both in the bathroom and on the grass). I am not sure why I need a formal blogging plan. I like to create plans though I don't take them seriously and enjoy breaking the "rules" I create for myself. I have taken my Google Reader portlet off of my iGoogle page and unsubscribed to many of the blogs I had been stalking and I am suprisingly not missing it a bit. Paul has been traveling to AZ the past couple of weekends to finish up filming on Hi My Name Is Ryan. The film was just accepted into three more festivals and we are keeping our fingers crossed that it will sell this year. So I am back. Did you miss me?

If you think of a good plan let me in. I waste so much time reading blogs but I love it. I am glad you are back. Congratulations to George on the potty front. Love the Happy song.

I really don't find reading blogs a waste of time, because for me, at times I need just some down time. And if that is what I choose to use that time for.....it is my own fault. So then I don't feel guilty, I guess more so because sitting in a chair right now is one of the only things I can do! I am glad you are back, and I hope that your plan includes lots of posts for me to read! Welcome back!

Yay you are back. And I can't wait to hear Charlie's song. Sounds like a good one.

I love that picture. I have some great pics of Bear World through the years. I want you to burn me a copy of the Hebgen Lake Pictures. And I did miss you blogging because I just don't get enough of you as it is....
Lets do something fun on Thursday. :)

Welcome back! Yes, I did miss you! I missed hearing all the funny stories about the kids and your great insight. Okay, before your head gets too big...missed you and glad you are back!

Lindsay said...

I totally missed you! The happy song is great, I think I'll make up my own version to sing in the car.

Erika said...

Yes, you were missed. I'm glad you are back. I'm sorry our trip to Blackfoot never happened. Maybe someday when we are in a nursing home together Poison will perform there. That's a very scary thought on so many levels.

I'm glad you're back - I always love reading your posts. I can't believe you removed your Reader icon - SCANDALOUS! You were my inspiration to put that up and now I'm addicted! Good to see you yesterday - I didn't get a chance to chat but I'm really looking forward to November :)

Finally!! A post! I always enjoy reading your blog, so even if you're not reading mine... please don't take away the entertainment for the rest of us! :)

Welcome back! You are so right about learning to control this blogging addiction. It is a work in progress for me too. So fun to see you guys at Hebgen, thanks for letting us stop by. My kids are still talking about it. Motorbikes for kids? Forget Old Faithful!
Oh, I will post our cool picture, just as soon as I figure out how to photoshop 15 lbs off of myself!

I missed you! I am glad you are back so I can see more pictures of your handsome boys!

Laurel said...

I'm glad you are back!! Love Charley's song and can't wait to hear it this weekend. Congratulations to Georgie! I'm so proud of him. See you all Friday at "the Birthday Party"!! I'm now wishing I had that Snow White costume from Swiss Days!

Kirsten Brockner said...

Yes, I missed reading your fun stories! I try to only look at blogs once a week and I only look at the people I know. It is hard. Better than watching tv!

Lydia said...

It's so nice to have you back, Amy! Cute picture of bear world. That's awesome that the movie's been picked up by three festivals! I'll keep my fingers crossed, too.

I never leave any comments on blogs, but I had to let you know that yes, I did miss you. I love looking at your blog. Even though I don't comment, I am still looking! I am glad you are back!
