we are still alive!

so the past month has been kinda hectic around here. and with the decent camera still MIA, i havent been taking many pictures. on a good note, i have my laptop back up and running. my wonderful step-dad had a laptop that died and just so happened his screen would fit on my laptop so he gave it to me. so now i am mobile! i do have super cute pics of the kids in their halloween costumes to put up, but they're on the other computer. so i guess this is just a quick one to let everyone out there that reads this, that im still alive. i will try to get up to date in the next couple days. and with pictures as soon as my new memory card comes in the mail!
