I AM TALKING TO MYSELF!!!!!!!

Well hello self! How are you doing today? Fine thankyou... and you? oh yes, I'm doing splendid.... going a bit crazy but all in all just fine.
What are you up to these days.... well nothing much.... trying to decide how to get more involved with people around here..

Well as you can see.... I'm going a bit nutty.... not a whole ton of friends to keep me occupied and I can feel sanity slipping minute by minute :0)
Hee hee hee......
I guess I should get up and do something productive! This talking to myself nonsense is not so fun after all.....

Bye everyone (which is really just me myself and I) oh yea and Brandon! Love ya kid!

Happy Easter

The funny thing is, is that I don't think that there is anyone actually reading this blog, so I'm really just talking to myself. :0)
Oh well, I guess I'll wish myself a Happy Easter.
What a wonderful day it was! Spending time with family is really a precious thing isn't it?
Of course the house might never be the same but who needs a clean house anyway right?

Something to occupy your ears :-)


Get a playlist! Standalone player Get Ringtones

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!

This boy really knows how to work!

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!
