Our Big Date

Since Dad and Brandon went to scout camp for the week, I figured it was my big chance to steal a date with Chris.
For once we were able to see a movie that Dad didn't see first !!!!!

I think that I scored the best date in town actually. We got all dressed up and went out for great Pizza. We had such a good time there that we totally left the leftovers on the table :0( That is really becoming a habit that I could do without.
After that we headed to the movies. Harry Potter here we come.

Pizza, popcorn and the movies with the most handsome blond hair, blue eyed boy in town. I think that I'm pretty darn lucky!

He's back!

At the last minute I found out that I was going to be able to fly out to Virginia and be there for John's graduation! Thanks to some great friends I was able to get a flight on Southwest and fly in a day before his graduation and then drive home with him. We stopped in St Louis to see some friends for a few days. It was so nice to see everyone again. As we drove around St Louis we were struck with an odd feeling. Almost like it was home (well except for the fact that we couldn't go home!) At about 10:30pm we left St Louis for an all out push for Ogden Utah where our kids have been for the last week.



What a long drive. My bumb still hurts! Early tomorrow morning we are driving the final 4 hours home to Boise! I will be very happy if we don't drive anywhere for quite some time!

Here's my thought

Ok, we have now officially made it into the 21st century by creating this blogging page. (Honestly a blog sounds like something that I blow out of my nose in the morning) but blog it is.

Hopfully in my "spare" time I will be able to keep this close to up to date. We are hoping to be able to put photos of the kids and all that Jazz so that our family can see just what it is we are up to here.

Hope it works!

Montana bound for Christian

Christian is having a ton of fun in the great state of Montana! He left 2 weeks ago headed for Dillon Montana, to spend time on the Hansen Ranch.
At first he was a bit nervous to leave home. After all he is going to be gone for nearly 6 weeks.... And at the time of his departure, snow was rapidly falling on the Ranch and here in Boise we were enjoying 80 degree weather. (YIKES!)

After a bit of an adjustment he has found his groove! Early mornings and lots and lots of eating!
Christian has been helping out with the lambing season. Mucking stalls, playing, mucking more stalls, playing, eating, playing and so on.

Yesturday Grandpa Paul taught him how to drive a four wheeler! I'm jealous :0)

Time with Grandma has been enjoyable too... from the sounds of it he has tons of projects that he has been working on... One is "TOP SECRET" so I'll tell all after he comes home.

Can't wait to hear all about his adventures in Montana when he comes back!

Video call from Dad :0)

We sure miss seeing that smile everyday!

We miss you Dad!

Its been a really long 3 months! John left for officer school in the beginning of February.... He first went to Fort Benning Georgia, where he spent 2 very long months in training. After that was finished he surprised us here at home with a wonderful visit back in Boise! We were able to spend the weekend with him before he flew back to grab his truck and drive up to Fort Eustis Virginia.

Two weeks from now I get to fly to Washington DC to see him for a week over the Memorial Day Holiday! We are really looking forward to this. I only wish that I could take the kids with me.

John graduates his final school towards the end of June and then its home sweet home!

What a handsome man you are!

I think that I may have to beat the girls off with a stick!

Brandon

There are many things that I could say about Brandon but the first thing that comes to mind is What a friend you are!

Brandon has such a good heart, I love you bubba!
I swear, one of these days some cute girl is going to steal you away from me and then I'm just going to be super uber sad :0(

I hope he always knows how wonderful I think he is!
