test run

It's official - I'm a blogger.  Yikes, I never thought I'd say those words.  However, after realizing that I couldn't keep in touch with many through email anymore (apparently that is a thing of the past) I had to reluctantly embrace the idea of blogging.  After thinking about it, I decided that it is a quick and easy way to keep in touch with family and friends through our many stages of life.  I'll list all my reasons for beginning a blog in a future post, but for now I just wanted to say hi and welcome to old friends and family.  So "Hi" and "welcome" to my official "web log".   My posts will primarily deal with what's happening in our family - a way to give grandparents a glimpse into our daily lives - and perhaps some random thoughts on life from my perspective.  It will take me a while to figure out the look and style of the page - I'm very new and this is virgin territory for me - bear with me.  I'll be writing to you soon...

Yea!! Welcome to the world of blogging. For me it's been a great relief to only have to write something once, upload pics once, etc, etc. I look forward to your future posts!

I'm so excited because I'm like you... hate the phone and only occasionally good at personal emails. It will be hard to see sweet pictures of "my girls' now and fight the urge to drive to St. Louis!

Give them hugs for me! :)

hey! this will be good. i've found that being a consistent blogger isn't as easy as it sounds, at least not with a 6, 3 and 1 year old :D i'm sure you'll have better luck with that though!
