What to blog...

So...I decided to write a blog...now I need to figure out what to blog about! I decided to write about the happenings of the Fisher Family...my family. I know...you might be saying...uh...so what! That's fine...you don't have to read it...but I thought I'd write about just anything and everything I thought might be interesting.

A little bit about me first. I am a full-time working mom. I've been married to my sweet husband for 14 years...and we have a very sweet ALMOST 11 year old son. I work at a huge Baptist church in Tyler, Texas...and have worked there for 11 years. My job can be a little stressful at times but I totally enjoy who I work for, my co-workers and the atmosphere.

I do a lot of volunteer work...mostly being involved in my son's life. I volunteer for Kidz Praise (Children's Choir) on Wednesday nights at our church. I can't believe this is the 7th year I've been volunteering for Children's Choir! Since Bryce is in 5th Grade this will be his last year for Kidz Praise...and my last year as a Kidz Praise volunteer! Next year he will move on to Middle School Choir and they meet Sunday evenings.

I also help out with the Parent Association (PA) at my son's school. People ask me if I ever get tired of helping out from year to year but I don't...I LOVE it! Plus...since I've only got one child...I only have one chance to help otu. This year I am the PA Secretary...taking minutes and sending email reminders. I wasn't sure about taking minutes but it wasn't that bad. I am also a Grade Level Representative (GLR) for 5th Grade...which basically means I send out reminders about class parties, etc.

I'll leave with this parting picture...dinner tonight! Being a working mom means I'm all about quick and easy dinners...and I LOVE the grill! So tonight's dinner is grilled chicken (marinated in Good Seasons Garlic & Herb dressing), my version of potato sald (cooked potato, mayo, grainy mustard and garlic powder) and a green salad. Quick and easy in both prep and clean-up!
