Within the last couple of days I got in touch with my wonderful cousin Christine. She told me about her family's blog and once I looked at it I was immediately inspired and had to have one. So here I am constructing my first post to take part of this online journal community in hopes to better keep up with family and close friends. Now the trick is to see if I can actually keep up with posting while balancing going to school full time and working. It seems to be a juggling act but I am up for the challenge.
