Been Awhile.

Well it's been awhile since I've updated this (see my reason in Matt's Blog).

Our computer is acting really funny and I have to do this on another computer. So I can't download pictures of the girls or the family. But with all luck we will have a new computer soon thanks to the help of Uncle Mike.

Kindergarten!
Yes, we signed Kaitlyn up for Kindergarten this week. I can't believe next year at this time Kaitlyn will be in Kindergarten and Michaela will be in Pre-School through the high-school (like Kaitlyn did) . Anne will then be home all alone for the first time in 5 years...amazing! I think I know what she will be doing...enjoying the silence.

Sledding.
We went sledding a couple of weeks ago and just have one report. Kaitlyn had her first wipe-out. Did she enjoy it? No. It was pretty cold and she cried but it was something she talked about for awhile. We had fun though. Michaela didn't care for sledding because the snow kept spraying in her face as she and mom went down.

Nothing else new. Things have been pretty quiet around here, which isn't' a bad thing I guess.

Don't forget to check out Matt's blog as well; the link is on the side.

Merry Christmas; Happy New Year; On to 2009!

Okay, it's been awhile since we've posted anything. A lot has happened, a Christmas program for Kailtyn (picture below with her dress and Grandma Sharon's necklace when she was little). Our first big snow of the year; too bad we didn't have a big sleds then because all the snow is gone. We had 4 Christmas parties (all grandparents and uncles below are seen *note still searching for Auntie Karen and Uncle Mike pictures).

The girls had a great Christmas, all the Grandparents provided wonderfully and Santa brought the girls new bikes this year. They enjoyed decorating cookies and the tree this year.

Here is wishing everyone a wonderful New Year and a blessed 2009. Quick highlights of 2008 are: 1. Kaitlyn started pre-school and has flourished. 2. Michaela received inserts for her pigeon toe. 3. The girls turned 4 and 2 respectively. 4. Kaitlyn learned how to ride a bike and pump on the swings. 5. Michaela started talking and is a world class swimmer. 2009 will bring us a 5 year old that will start kindergarten in Kaitlyn and Michaela will turn three and most likely be even more adventurous and crazy.

























































Happy New Year!
