HELP!

Okay, I finally posted...but it didn't turn out like it looked when I previewed it while I was putting it together. I need a lesson in blogging...anyone willing to help so my text isn't all over the place and the photos aren't so spread out all over? HELP!!!

Christmas Photos

Maggie and Maguire were so fun this year since they really "got" the opening presents part. They would have been happy with one toy - we had a hard time keeping them in the living room to open any more after the first one! Mason loves loves loves basketball! My mom sent me some fabulous lotions from Elizabeth Arden. All the boys opening our new Wii. Hard to believe our oldest, Mitchell, has outgrown getting toys for Christmas. His favorite gifts were a stereo and mp3 player. What a handsome guy! Christmas eve we open one present - always jammies from mom. I didn't make them for the twins this year but I made a total of five pairs of pants in 2 1/2 hours on the eve of Christmas eve. Mike offered moral support by playing playstation while I was sewing : ) Mason's jammies match his "bear blanket" that goes everywhere with him. Mitchell with Maggie, Matthew, Mason, Maguire. What cute kids! We had a great Christmas at our home in Illinois. (Hopefully we'll be celebrating Christmas in Georgia by next year!) We had a great day celebrating the birth of our Savior. The boys spent the day playing with presents with minimal fighting amongst siblings. Mike spent almost the entire day just helping the kids put their toys together or make room for them in their rooms. After presents we ate a yummy breakfast cake then I worked in the kitchen until dinner at 5:00. We had two other families join us for dinner so we could have a big feast without having to make it all ourselves--plus the fun of having the company of good friends since all of our family is so far away. We miss everyone who lives away from us...it was especially nice to start Christmas Day with a phone call from Koryn Knudsen--her family got up much earlier than we did but it was great to catch up and share our excitement with our new treasures. Love you Koryn! Here's some photos...Mike's best gift to me was a new memory card for our camera so I can take more than 50 photos before having to download them! I have some more fun photos of the kids so I'll post again when I get a few spare minutes! We hope you all had a memorable day. Love you!

Time sure flies!

I know, I know...I need a new post. I put together this huge post of my New York trip back in October and it got corrupted and won't post so I lost my enthusiasm about blogging...help me get it back! What can I do to make it easier and faster to post? HELP!
