As we speak so time flees.....

Wow....Been a while huh!!! So much has happened since I last posted. I'm still in school. I will be done with my 2000 hours around September and I will be done with my AAS in December!!! WOOHOO!! PARTY!!!! I took my written state board last month and passed with a 93! I will take the practical state board when I am done with my hours. I also had the opportunity to attend a hair show in Las Vegas last month.(I might add that this was my first trip EVER to vegas) It was awesome. Who would have thought that earning hours for school could involve alcohol!! I rode down with three other girls from school and we had so much fun! We learned so much about eachother. We just talked the whole way there and back. The hotel we stayed at was called Aria, it was an enormous beautiful place.

At the end of next week life as I know it will change FOREVER!! My sweet baby boy will no longer be in Elementary School. I can't believe how much he has grown over the last year. Not only is he a full head taller than me but he is becoming a wonderful, goodlooking young man!! Ciara is still enjoying girl scouts and is excited to go to cooking camp this summer. I think she just might grow up to be my liitle gourmet chef!! She loves to help out in the kitchen every chance she gets.

Happy New Year!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a great new year. Christmas was great here at the Eddens household. The new year has started off a little rough however. Jims mom got really sick and was red lighted and sirened to the hospital a week ago today. She was having breathing issues and was very disoriented. The next day it was decided that she should be intubated and placed on a ventilator to help her breathe because nothing was bringing her O2 sats up above 80. We started preparing for the worst. We were all pretty certain that she wouldn't be coming home from the hospital. Thankfully we were wrong! On Thursday they took the tube out and boy was she happy! ( Ok who are we kidding we all were very happy) While she is still in the hospital in ICU, every day she continues to heal. With this hospital stay came the sad realization that we probably only have a year left with her. We will just make the most of what we have and cherish every second we have to make the memories that last a lifetime. Above are just a few pictures from christmas. Will post more later, gotta go for now. Thanks for reading!! Love Ya!!
