So it has been brought to my attention that I have not updated my Blog in a while, numerous times, by numerous people. So here I am...getting ready to update it, finally.

A lot has happened in the Boone Household. We've survived our first year in the Bay Area! During the past year, we have been to many new places, met many new friends and learned new things about ourselves and our family. I am pleased to say this has been a GREAT year in our life and we couldn't be happier with the choice we've made to move here. Some days are hard, I defiantly miss my Family and Friends, but luckily we live close enough to get many visits in. We've been lucky to go back to San Diego a bunch and already have 2 more trips planned. My parents and friends have been up numerous times too, which is always fun. We love sharing our new experiences with old friends.

So many new things are happening now with us. Mr. Jaydon started Kindergarten last week and little Brycie started Preschool. It was a hard week for Mommy. I couldn't believe my boys are growing up as fast as they are. As their school season started I was sure I was going to be able to find more me time but I think I gravely mistaken the time I do have. I had such high expectations of all the free time. I planned on working out, running errands and having coffee with my friends. I quickly realized that running 2 kids around to school and back on a half day schedule was not easy or fast, and then we still have playdates and outings with friends in the afternoon. Oh well I am sure I will be able to manage my time better as the weeks go on and I find the right schedule for us.

I have been very active in my mothers club, and love it. All the Women are great and friendly and I think I have met many friends for life. Its always comforting to know you have someone to be there to help out when times are tough or you just need a friend, and I know I have found that in these ladies. I have taken on a huge role as the Newsletter Coordinator mush to my husbands dismay...but at least it gets my brain thinking, and not always stuck thinking about mac and cheese and play doh.

Jasons enjoying his job and joined their corporate softball team. It gets him some time away from the house and keeps him active. I am trying to convince him to sign up for dodge ball so I can play. I just think having the opportunity of throwing a ball at someone might be a great stress relief. We will see what happens with that.

I promise I will post more often, with more then a quick update of the family. Keep checking back and if you see me slacking off let me know!
