January 2009

We made it through the first week of the new year. Nothing much is exciting but Brenda said it was time to post again. At least if I put up a new post I know I will get a new comment from her!!! Thanks Brenda!! We had a wonderful Christmas break - relaxing, reading books, playing games, doing some cleaning projects, catching up on bookwork, went to hotel/waterpark, and lot of good eating!! Danelle went back to MN to start working and she starts classes on Monday. We really miss her. The rest of us back to school. Guess I had too long of a vacation as I was really tired this week. I have 2 first grade girls that are super sweet and I love them dearly, but some days they take all I have. They just can't get their "act" together and it seems like I am constantly having to remind them what to do next and go over the same thing time and time again. Some days I really feel drained!! What else, it is WINTER -- snow and cold. Guess we are suppose to get way below 0 this next week. Dan is thinking that "going south" sounds pretty good right now. Oh, Michael bought a brand new pick-up. A Chevy - he switched over from Ford. Any comments???? He and Gary are headed to Kalispell in a week for their snowmobile trip. Hope they don't get in an avalanche!! I really enjoyed so many letters and pictures. Thanks everyone!!
