Just Stuff

Hard to believe it's already January 21st! It's been a nice few weeks and we've recovered since the holidays! The boys have started basketball again and are loving it. Every Saturday is devoted to games. My friend Amber does my hair and last week she gave Olivia a perm!! It is so cute!! Livy was a trooper sitting in that chair with so many perm rods on her head. She loves her curly hair!

Today we went sledding!! The kids loved it. We just walked a couple blocks to the hill by the cemetery. It was lots of fun and was a good outing for Koda. It didn't take Koda long to come home and go right to sleep. It's the biggest adventure she's had so far!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

Well it's officially 2008! We've had so much fun this Christmas season and now the kids are feeling ready to go back to school. I don't think I'm ready to get back in the swing of things of getting everyone ready and out the door.

Here's some random photos of our Christmas this year. We went to my folks the weekend before Christmas and had a fun time with Grandma and Grandpa and cousins. We went bowling on saturday (the kids new favorite activity) We came home Christmas eve day and for the first time in a long time we spent Christmas Eve and Christmas day in our own home. It was wonderful! The biggest excitement on Christmas morning was the arrival of our new puppy "Koda". The kids were shocked and so excited. She's a cutie. Today is her one week birthday in our home.

The kids all tried really hard to stay up until midnight last night for New Years Eve but only Isaac made it. We had Ryan & Jaime and girls over and played some games. Adam fell asleep on the kitchen floor listening to us play. This morning he woke up and wondered what he missed.

We got a call this morning from Matt's brother Marty and we have 2 new nephews (twins). Now that is a way to start a new year! We are so excited for them. It makes me want to fly out and see those little boys!
