Well I've really been slacking on keeping on my blog. I want to blame my computer issues but I think life has just been busy and exhausting. I don't really even know where to begin again but this year has been a blessed year in the Holgrimson household.
Since we don't really do Christmas cards, why don't I just catch you up on each family member?
First, I'll start with Tony. He has a very busy year at work. He continues his role as Senior Manger of Global IT Infrastructure & Service Delivery. He has traveled a lot this year with many trips to Europe and to the offices in the U.S. He also helped coach Brody's baseball team this fall. I know Brody loves having his Dad coach and it was a great experience for them both.
Marissa is one week away from being 1/2 way done with the 6th grade. The transition to Middle School seemed to be an easy one for her. I think she enjoys school most of the time and her honor role grades impress her parents! She is also in band playing the flute, student council, and drama club. I'm thankful for such a good school for her to attend. She also has been really involved with her girls group at church. She went to a week long summer camp in July and she is going to winter retreat in a few weeks. The girls get together once a month and they always have a lot of fun! She is blessed with such a great group of friends.
Brody is also one week away from being 1/2 way done with 2nd grade. His teacher praises how well he is doing and what a good boy he is! This mom is so proud. He loves playing sports. This year as I mentioned he played baseball and he loved being on such a great team. It was really great seeing him get so much better throughout the season. He also loves to play football and basketball. His friend next door, Adam, comes over to play outside every day after school.
So, I guess that just leaves me to update on. I'm still working both my full-time HR job and my part-time travel job. I drive to downtown Jacksonville and I wish the job was a little closer but I'm working from home more now so that helps the commute. I enjoy spending time with my family and taking our weekend Disney trips. I'm so glad we renewed our annual passes again this year.
Our family including my brother's family & my mom went on a Disney cruise this past July. It was such an amazing experience. Disney sure knows how to treat you well! We've enjoyed lots of visitors to Florida over the past year and I'm sure 2019 will be no different.
I lost my Grandma in August and there will forever be a void in my heart. She was my last grandparent to pass away and she was one special lady.
So I'll leave you with some pics we took over this last year and a hope that I can be consistent in keeping this blog updated!
