Aunt Beck:? Where have you been??? You are taking forever to post!

Jodi:? She does this every December.

I am on a self declared vacation right now.? :)? Jim took two weeks off and I am vacationing with him.? I am having a hysterectomy next week using the Di Vinci procedure (remote robotic – cool huh?), so I won’t be shooting in January either (except for a newborn or two).? Boy that was a long time coming wasn’t it?? I was fretting about that four years ago and it took me this long to be “over it” and just schedule it.? Daniel told me that I was going to be the first woman he ever knew to have a hysterectomy WHILE pregnant.? Hee hee.? True.? :)?? Nine and a half years ago, my uterus did her job beautifully and I will always feel so blessed and grateful that I had the privilege of carrying Tanner……bbbbbuuuuuutttttttt……turns out, not using MY uterus was pretty awesome too so she has now long outlived her usefulness to me.? 🙂

So I may pop in and out a little bit (and I do have a few Christmas pictures to post) but I expect the blog will be pretty quiet until I get back to business next year.? Any good book recommendations?? I don’t plan to be down very long at all but Aimee thinks I am being a little “too” optimistic.? We shall see…
