New Year's Resolution

Well my New Year's resolution for 2012 is to start blogging. Mostly just for me as a journal. I've been inspired by Nikki's blog and what a great job she does with it. I know it's something I won't regret doing and I feel like I owe it to my family to keep track of our lives, so we can look back and remember what happened :)
I started this blog in 2007, and did one post. Nice. It was right before we found out about Luke's autism spectrum diagnosis and honestly I think I've been so overwhelmed by life since then that I haven't been able to bring myself to do one extra thing (like blog). I also think that it's just been too painful for me to document. Like if I wrote it down, that made it more real.
Although my life hasn't gone exactly the way I thought it would, that's what life's about. I have many blessings, and I am thankful for my trials. I want to look back at this blog in 10 years and remember what a fun, hard, crazy time of life this was...

That's all for now. I promise I will keep posting and I will add pictures :)

Fall for the Lane Family

This fall has been jam packed for the Lane family. First we had Halloween followed by Sailor's birthday the next day and her baptism that Saturday. Then we left for Disneyland on Sunday! It's been crazy but very fun. We left Lucas home from Disneyland which was a hard decision, but proved to be the right one. Dragging a 2 year old with a very short attention span and a dislike for strollers around Disneyland for 4 days wasn't my idea of a vacation. The girls had a great time and were wiped out by 6:00 every night.
Now that we've recovered from last month, we're looking forward to the holiday season. The business never ends!
