It's been a while!

Yeah, I know that most of you have given up on me. I'm sorry. This past year has been very eventful. DC and I did a lot of remodeling in our house. We put in really nice laminate flooring and painted and did all that fun stuff. Next summer we are going to finishing it all off by continuing the laminate throughout the upstairs, re-building our back entry and making it part of the kitchen, and putting on new siding. This place will look good just in time for us to start the plans for our new house. By the time we finish the only thing that would be left to do to make it really nice is to put in new windows but we really don't want to take that on right now. It's an old house and the floors were enough of a headache. I'm glad we are splitting the updates between two summers because I was really getting sick of painting. I still have a little trim to finish downstairs.
Both of our girls are monsters. They are getting really big really fast. It is really cool to play with them now that they both have their own personalities. They are completely different. Allison is a drama queen most of the time but she also likes to dance around and tell you stories that are absolutely hillarious. Katelyn is more laid back, she just likes to smile and cuddle. She is always smiley. They don't even have the same body type. Allison was always really chubby and short but Katelyn is longer and really dainty.
DC also started a new job this summer so he works at the RTI out at Camp. He likes it and he doesn't because the schedules can get kinda crazy from time to time.Other than that he has been really busy with starting an online business selling GPS and car audio equiptment. HE has partnered with his brothers who all have strengths in different aspects of the business and I think it is going to take off really well. They have all the bases covered with people who really know what they are doing. When everything is ready for opening I will post the website. It is really cool, I am really proud of them.
I have still been doing my parties but not as much as I want to. I hope to hit it really hard this coming year and become an Executive Director. To do that I need $30,000 retail sales and 15 recruits. I can do it, cross your fingers for me. I want to make it a really profitable business. I think that I will be going back to school next fall and I want to go into something that compliments my business. I have a few things up in the air but I also have to judge what is going to be most fruitful in this area. I would love to be a sexual therapist but I just don't see that as something that will take off in ND.
