Blog Moving Time! Oh, And Happy New Year...

At the start of 2012 I have decided to consolidate all my blogging into one site.

Happy New Year to you and please consider joining me at my new site:

Dorinda Writes

I will still be sharing some of our family journey of life with two kids plus triplets but it will be taking a back burner to writing. Over the past five plus years I have enjoyed sharing my pregnancy, birth and growth of my triplet girls but find that its taking away from my real passion: writing Christian suspense fiction and I want to get back to it.

Thank you for hanging out with me over the years and seeing how our family has grown from two children to five in just one day!

I hope you will join me in my new journey...

Merry Christmas!

Here's wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas!!

We are celebrating with family and will be back in the New Year with some fun new things so please stay tuned.

In the meantime, enjoy a picture of my brand new niece, Aubree Noelle who was born on December 23rd weighing 6 lbs 13 ounces and 18 inches long. I'm so excited to be an aunt and think she's just adorable :)

Our Christmas Tree

By Kaitlyn (captions on bottom of pictures)



Now, I know that looks like a lot of work. It was, just not in decorating. Choosing it took two hours and a half! Here, I'll show you in pictures.


The little elves don't want to pick a tree just yet!


Can't go over it, can't go under it, can't go around it, got to go through it!


Tractor rides to the trees.


Oh, boy! This looks hard!


Already decorated wreaths, (can't we just get one of these instead?). You might recognize the big blue one, which we now have on our door.


Everyone wanted that one. (see it? The one on the hill, in the back?)


When dad said that we were going to get a smaller tree this year, this is actually what I thought of.


The holy tree.


The tree was saying "Don't pick me! Don't pick me!"


Yea, I was there to.


Dad vs. Tree


Julianna's barbie tree.


Our final decision in mid-fall, (Look at the tree, it's saying "Darn! I got picked!")with Alyssa staying ten feet back, for once! ;)

Well, Merry Christmas to all, and to all, happy tree hunting!

At Least Some Of Us Are Ready For Christmas!!

To be fair it's a little easier for them when they don't have to buy any gifts or get anything out and ready but I do love their enthusiasm!



Hope you have a wonderful December and while you're shopping let's all remember what we're really celebrating!
