Sledding

Today was a good day to go sledding-we got like 8 inches of snow last night- so after school we dug out the four wheeler and played for a little while- I mean a little while too because it was so cold!

We only got to play with Dylan because Taya is sick, Trey was at basketball, Toby at wrestling, and Bryce was off doing whatever it is teenagers do when they say they are doing homework!

Anyway, this is one thing I love about living in the country- we have lots of room to play!

Me- before I got cold and wet

This is me about to biff it

Bowling for New Years

After spending many days in the house for Christmas break- Jen finally had a day off and we took the kids bowling. Bryce and Toby did not go, and it irritated me a bit- because they can go with their girlfriends but not their old Mom- I know this is just the beginning- but I had fun with my other three.

I am not a good bowler, nor do I ever care to be- but it is fun to watch how competitive my kids are- and they are not very good either. When the Twins were not looking, I was changing my score to get strikes and spares- it was so funny to watch them get irritated because I was winning- had they been paying any type of attention, they would know I never even knock more than 5 pins down! Jen and I were laughing so hard- I almost bowled a perfect 200! We are still giving them a hard time about how poorly they bowl. Oh the joys of picking on your own kids! lol


Trey, going in for the kill shot


Dylan just likes to pose, I think

Gutter ball

Taya has a future in bowling- at least a fashion statement!

The Family- I love them!
