Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

Its been a long long LONG time since I've posted anything, but once again my dear friend Jenny reminded me to get posting! This ones for you again Jen (I think you're the only one who reads this).

Summertime...FINALLY!

We finally saw a glimpse of summer this past weekend. We mowed our yard, planted some more flowers & added to the garden and the kids ran through the sprinkler. Well it wasnt really a sprinkler. I was watering my plants and walked away, so they decided to take a bucket and prop the hose so they could run through it, but hey it worked! :) Just thought I'd post a few pics of the kids from this weekend. Enjoy!

Just for Jenny

Its 10:00 on Tuesday night. I was on FB (aka CrackBook) and talking to one of my bestest friends Jenny. She says to me "when are you going to update your blog?????", I told her that we havent been up to much lately, BUT I would update the blog just for her. Then she added there better be pics of the "nothing" going on. :)

Here it goes:

On Saturday, Chad and I did the MS Walk again this year. It turned out to be a stupendous day!! Needless to say the weatherman was wrong AGAIN ( I need a job where I get paid to make stuff up, I think I'd be pretty good at it). Thanks to everyone who came to walk with me!

Sunday, nothing...

Monday, again nothing....

Tuesday, I had mtgs all day, now Im listening to the wash machine and dryer, along with the stupid Cubs game and listening to Chad get more excited about the Cubs then he does about me (hehe), was on FB, oh and I went grocery shopping tonight. Whew what a Tuesday huh?? Such is the life of an old mom. :)

Below are some pics of the kids...just randoms pics...Kobey in her favorite hat, Coop playin army men on the counter, playin outside...just everyday stuff...but arent they cute?? :)

Things I Love...Things I Don't....

I love this little book I saw at the drug store the other day...the store has so many cute little books!

I have a love/hate relationship with Avonex. Its the drug I inject myself with once a week. I love it because it seems to be doing its job and keeping me functional (for lack of better words). I HATE it because it makes me sick...makes me feel like I have the flu...plus who likes to hurt themselves?? Its not so bad when a nurse is giving you the shot...but when you know its coming at the exact moment it sucks. But like I said...I LOVE it because it keeps me going!

For some reason Im in love with "little" books lately! My friend Paula gave me this. Every girl should have it!

Heres whats left of Kobey and Coopers snowmen. See all that water in the backround? Thats what I dont like. Spring is not a season I like. In fact its last on my list because its sooo gross and wet and dirty and sloppy and well you get the point! :)

WHY?!?!?!?!

Ok can someone please tell me how I get my photos to stay the way I want them?? I arrange them...I preview before I post and they look fine, but then when I look at my blog again...BAM they are NOT the way I had them. Grrrr....

Long time no blog!

Ok so its been way too long since I've updated this thing, but I've been getting harrassed by some people to get busy with updates. :) I guess I've just been lazy...well lazy and our computer took a dump at home and we really need to go buy a new one.

Anywho I guess I'll highlight my birthday party. :) Cause my friend "Jenny" says too!! On Feb 28th Chad and his helpers threw me a 30th (yes I said 30, I hardly look it so its hard to believe Im really 30, but trust me I am) Birthday Party. It was so much fun! A good time with lots of friends...cant get much better can it??

Jenny's 30th!!

Oh yes I just about forgot to post my friend "Jenny's" 30th! And she really does not like to be called Jenny and she hates it when I spell it that way too. :) But on the 20th of December my best friend (and much older friend..LOL) Jen turned 30. So I headed into Fargo and headed out with her, her brother & sister inlaw & our friend Brandy. It was a low key night but we had a great time talking, laughing and of course having a few toddies! Here are a couple pics (I stole them from her blog..hehe)!! Oh and she won $100 that night...lucky gal.

This & That

Its been awhile since I've updated our blog so I thought I'd try to cover everything thats been going on the past couple weeks in one post! :)

Christmas Eve Chad, the kids and I spent the evening at my parents. We had a deeply fabulous meal at the Ramada (thanks Dad!) and then headed to their house to open gifts and play games. The kids made a haul as usual. It was a great time!!!

Christmas Day the kids opened gift here at home. Then we packed up and headed to Chads parents. We had supper and opened some good gifts. We spent the next day playing outside, sledding and going on sleigh rides.

Then on New Years Eve my parents took the kiddos and we headed into Fargo with some friends. We had a great meal downtown and great conversation! We didnt get home until almost 2 am...we were pretty impressed with ourselves. :)

Well that about sums up the past few weeks at our household! Best wishes for 2009!!

Oh and I cant seem to get the pictures rearranged the way I wanted...anyone have any advice on that?? Cause the way they look before I hit post...does not look the same when you are looking at it on my blog.........
