Some pictures from the past months

January is full of Birthdays!

Caleb, Mom and I all celebrated our birthdays thus far this month. What a good excuse to play and have fun. I think that is why I like birthdays. Lot's of excuses for fun! Caleb had about 6 friends spend the night and they stayed up playing nerf gun fights and playing the WII. I think they had fun. I got to go shopping and out to lunch a couple times. I even got out with the girls and had margaritas. That is one of our favorite things to do. Over the weekend Chris and I went to Bentonsport, IA and stayed at a bed and breakfast at the Mason House. We did a murder Mystery dinner with our great friends Greg and Diane. There were four other couples with us as well. We took games and we played all night. Grandpa and Grandma Hanssen were kind enough to take the boys for the night. They had a sleep over with their cousins and had tacos and a movie night. (Lucky Ducks!) We all had fun! Jeff, Mom, Dad, Chris and I all got to go out to lunch together on Monday. That was fun. We hit the Button Factory and enjoyed some good food together.

Today is good. Not much new here. At work, still waiting to hear positive word on funding so we can keep our jobs. Chris work is going well. He is still commuting but I think he actually enjoys the quiet time. He did a sleep test last night. He definitely has sleep apnea so we will see if he ends up with more energy after he gets more oxygen while he is sleeping. Sounds like a good move. The boys are great. Silas is doing well at pre-school and Tina's. When I picked him up yesterday, Tina informed me he was kicking her but on the WII games. I told her that did not surprise me at all. We had an exciting Nerf gun fight last night. I got a little to competitive going after a dart, but other then that not to many injuries (sorry Kyle). Silas and I made a good team. He had to keep reminding me to put more bullets in my gun, not just cock it. AH HA! The older three boys stayed busy last night with indoor soccer practice as well. My new treadmill has been keeping busy. So that is a good start to 2009 as well. Tonight we will stay busy with Awana and Bible study. Snow flurries today and colder and windy. I am ready for spring.

A new year! Here is to 2009

As I told Chris the other day. "2009 is going to Rock" That is my attitude for the new year. I will try harder to keep up on my blog. I fell off the wagon but ...I am climbing back on. Here is to a great 2009.
