long time no....write?

Wow! Alot has happened in the last 4 months. Of course we had Thanksgiving. Which we celebrated with Al's family this year...or I should say the kids and I did. Alex had to work. Mom took us all (18 of us) to Disneyland for christmas. It was really fun. Although, it would have been better had Alex been there (he had to work..again). Christmas was good. It felt great being able to buy everything ourselves this year. In the past we've gotten help from al's parents. Its a good feeling knowing that you'll have money for your next meal. Im trully grateful for Alex being able to have such a great job and sacrifice his family time for a job. I'm very proud of him.
