I can't sleep!!!

I have come to love and depend on Advil PM for my slumber at night. I am not sure why I can't sleep on my own, but I can't...so I take Advil PM. My problem started about 3 months ago and I had never even heard of my new found love....Advil PM. So, my sister Becky, as wonderful as she is, said..." Hey, you should take Advil PM, it really helps you sleep, I take it all the time." So I did, and now it is the ONLY way I can sleep!!!

Does anyone have any routine or relaxation techniques to help so I can stop taking this wonderful sleeping aide?

PS...THANKS Becky!!!

New Nephew

PAUL ROBERT HUNSAKER

My cousin Kate Hunsaker had a beautiful healthy baby boy on January 12,2009! He is soooo adorable! I have only seen pictures...but already this little man has stolen EVERY ONE'S hearts! Kate had a heck of a time trying to get him out...and finally she did. They named him

Paul Robert Hunsaker!!!

So, even though technically he is not my nephew...he sure will be treated like it! I can't wait to have my own little person to grow up and make memories with Paul!

Seattle Trip 2008/2009

Nick and I went to Seattle for a couple days to celebrate New Years. It was SO much fun. The place we stayed at was....interesting? It was RIGHT in the center of downtown Seattle, so were able to walk everywhere we went. It was pretty cold! Our bodies adjusted to the 30 degree weather the 2ND day though! We had some awesome food, had AWESOME shopping and an amazing fireworks show at the Space Needle! The second half of our trip we went to Yelm, Washington to watch our niece Ryenn get baptized. It was so fun and special to be there for that special day. It was also fun visiting with ALL our nieces and nephews and in-laws.

Here are some pictures.... Smith Family...Eric, Annie, Jayden,Dayson,Ryenn,Easton

So, we had a really fun time! We were in awe of the fireworks show at the stroke of 12! It was just amazing. A little drizzle was beginning and that added to the whole experience!
