Spring??



Could it be that we have seen the last of the snow? I sure do hope so. Don't get me wrong I love to play in the snow but I much prefer playing in the pool.

New Years weekend we took the boys sledding up to Tollgate with our friends "The Parker Family". There was so much snow that finding a hill to actually sled on was difficult. So the kids got pulled around on there sleds behind 4 wheelers. **Everyone was being safe about it***
We all had a great time and feel extremely lucky to have the Parker Family as our friends.

Tis the season


For some reason I'm having the most difficult time getting into the Christmas spirit this year. I'm sure it's because we don't have our tree up yet.

Well to try and get into the spirit we took the boys to pizza with Santa claus at Big Johns pizza. Which was a HUGE hit with Adam. He sat in his seat so well behaved. We purposely put him in the seat that was closest to Santa so that he could look at him the entire time he was eating. Let me tell you what a good boy we had at dinner that night. There wasn't a crumb dropped on the floor and he at almost 2 pieces of pizza. He and Santa kept looking at each other. I told Adam he was watching to see if he was being a good boy.

After pizza we spent and hour and drove around town and looked at lights. I have to say I'm sad that Ladow street is not even close to what it used to be.

We are going to get our tree this weekend and I can't wait to decorate our home for Christmas.

Preschool


We decided to enroll Adam into preschool this year. I was a little concerned because he isn't even 3 yet. I mean really, is preschool necessary? Well, so far I've been extremely surprised at what he has already learned in his first month of preschool.

He knows the letters sounds for h, m, and o. He also informs me that O is a vowel. He must be listening to everything his teacher talks about. He brought home a colored paper of a picture of wheat the other day and explained to me that wheat makes flour and flour makes pancakes, muffins, bread, and waffles.


So I guess enrolling Adam in preschool has been a good choice.

100% finished!




Thought I would post a couple of pictures of our completed kitchen. Danny did such a great job.

All we have left is crown molding and baseboards. The countertops were installed today and they look fantastic!
I'm VERY happy with how the kitchen has turned out. Danny has done a really good job. He has worked on it everynight and on the weekends for 2 months with the exception when he and David went to Oakland.
Not sure why but my last post doesn't show up unless you click on August. weird... hopefully it won't happen with this post.

20 year reunion




I can't hardly believe it's been 20 years since I high school. I really enjoyed seeing everyone from school at the reunion this weekend. Reconnecting with old friends remincing about the good ole days.




It's getting closer!!!!

OMG! My kitchen is so close to being finished. Danny (with a HUGE help from my brother) was able to install the double oven yesterday. The rest of the cabinets we should finish install today. It's turning out beautiful. I'm really looking forward to having a kitchen sink again. It gets rather old going out the the trailer to do the dishes and cooking.
