It’s been way too long!

Seriously this is crazy! It has been months since I have posted anything on my blog. To those few of you that actually check my blog regularly, I’m sorry. I know you’d like to see what we’ve been up to and let me just say we’ve been busy. Obviously! The kids and I are on spring break this next week so I will do my best to update all of you. I honestly cant even remember the last picture I took. Hopefully I’ll find some around. Talk to you soon. Promise…

Ice Blocking!

Call me crazy but I had never heard of ice blocking before. On Christmas Eve we went with our friends the Kissell’s and the Stout’s ice blocking. For those of you like me that had no idea what it is, basically you find a hill ,sit on a block of ice and slide down. Sounds fun, right? Well, the kids loved it. Check them out!

Check out Jeremy’s expressioN!

I never got any of Sam because he didn’t think it was “cool” enough until after I left. Does that sound like him or what?

Nick’s 11 Birthday!

Nick had his birthday this year with his friend Shad. They’re birthdays are only a few days apart, so we thought it would be allot of fun to combine them this year. They both invited a bunch of their friends and went over to Shad’s house to play some football. The weather wasn’t exactly warm but the kids didn’t mind. They both thought it was one of their best birthdays ever!

     

Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving my Mom, Dad, Brother and his daughter Alayna came to visit. Brynn was SO excited to have her cousin here. I wish I would have taken more pictures. I only have these few that turned out. The girls played dress-up nearly the entire time they were here. They had so much fun together. My brother Greg LOVED playing American Idol on the Wii. I wish I would have gotten a picture of that. He’s such a great singer. (“Hey there Delilah, what’s it like in New York City” , hee hee)

It’s hard being so far away from family, but it’s so much fun when we can all get together.

Halloween Costumes

Considering it is New Years Eve, I thought it was about time that I updated my blog from Halloween :) Those of you who have been asking when I’m going to get new pictures up, well today’s the day. Well, maybe not all the pictures since October but I will try my best to get them all uploaded before next week. So, here’s the kiddos dressed up this year, minus Skyler. He decided this year he was too old for trick or treating, although many of his friends apparently aren’t. Brynn was a fairy, Nick was a punk rocker and Sam was a WSU football fan.

 

Disney on Ice!

The morning of Halloween we took Sam and Brynn to see Disney on Ice at the Toyota Center. It was so much fun! Definitely worth the money. They both really enjoyed it. I was kind of worried if Sam would like it or not, but it was great. They had several characters from Disney movies performing. Like Lion King, Little Mermaid, Cars, Tinkerbell, and of course Minnie, Mickey, Donald and Goofy. It was like being at Disneyland! It was a great start to our Halloween.

 

 

Skydiving Grandpa!

I can’t believe it but my 85 year young Grandpa went skydiving this past month. He has way more guts than me! They had it videoed. Check it out! (you’ll have to scroll down to the bottom of the page and pause my music so you can hear the video)
