Just Hangin' Loose in front of the Flamingo's exibit.

"24" Gotta love Jack Bauer

Matt and I are so excited that "24" is back on. If you've never seen it, watch the first season and get sucked into an awesome series.

Week's Review

I was just looking at my blog and realized it had been a week since my last post. And the last picture was a rather depressing one. So here's my week in a recap.

*Its still COLD (I don't care if they do say its 'warming up'. -5 is still just as cold as -25.)

*We're all counting down to our trip. (T-3 days and 16 hours) The kids are way excited to be staying at Grandma's house.

*Gabe started back up with swim lessons and is loving it. (makes for a crazy Wednesday, between picking up Gabe and dropping off Chandler for Scouts, but oh well)

*Can I just say how much I am loving having a Target? Who doesn't love 90% off Christmas stuff? PJ's for $1.76. Gotta love that!

-28.... Do you realize its warmer in the arctic circle than my house?

Let's talk about all this hullabaloo called 'global warming'. For those of you who don't live in Alaska, and are concerned about those poor polar bears who's homes are quickly melting away......

Let me just reassure you, they're fine!

Hears what the rest of us are waking up to, and let me tell you, I could use a little bit of 'global warming' right about now. Thank goodness Hawaii in only 12 days away. I think they'll have to chip me out of my ice cave to get me to the airport on time.

A month's worth of pictures.

Here are pictures from the last month. We've had lots going on, and little time to download the pictures from it. So here you go. I put more on after our big New Year's Bash at Jeremy's. The kids are very excited for the pinata and fire works that Jeremy and Renae are famous for.

Chandler opening birthday presents with the help of his sister Morgan.

Chandler's teacher's wife teaches next door to their classroom, and is famous for shoving cupcakes in the face of the birthday kid. They go to her, begging to have her shove their cupcake in their face. (I don't get it either, that's just what I'm told). Kind of like the music teacher at Gabe's school, who gets a cupcake from every birthday kid simply because he has a reputation for eating the cupcake in one bite and every kid wants to see that!)

Chandler, after taking a cupcake in the kisser. He loved every minute of it!

We went sledding the weak before Christmas over at the golf course in our subdivision. (perfect hills for sledding)
It was about 7pm at night, so it was pitch black, and I'm lucky we got any kind of shots of the kids. This shot is of Gabe in the front. And if you look closely, you can see Chandler and Morgan spilling out of their sled behind him.

Gabe in the driver's seat heading down the hill. Does he look like he's having fun, or what?

Jacob and Jense on their first sledding experience of the season.

My corny Christmas treats I made (Carmel popcorn) and we delivered as a family to our friends and neighbors.

Gabe, showing off his amazing castle from Santa.

Morgan with all of her Princess Barbie's that Santa left for her. She was so excited!
