Don't know what you got until it's gone!

And it was a total piece of crap! I'm talking about our old computer may it rest in piece. We got a sweet deal on on a new Sony all in one PC from Best Buy, and I'm loving it! I had no idea how difficult life was with our old one. I had been swearing our next computer would be an IMac, but hey we all have to compromise, and ANYTHING is better than our old one. I mean we got it when we were first married and that was nearly ten years ago!

So bring on the posts. We have been slaving away on our new wood floor, so many things have gone by the wayside: laundry, posting, supervising my children, cooking, jsut to name a few. But I actually think it was worth it. I am loving our new floor in the living room and upstairs addition. We finally have been able to move in! Our contractors probably loved installing baseboards around our couches and piano, but hey we were a little anxious.

To catch up:

Fun in the Snow!

Okay we have been crazy busy but we had to get outside a play a bit, just so my kids didn't forget who their mommy was. We had a ton of fun making snow men, and having a snowball fight. Here are the kiddos with their snowman family.

Welcome Home Uncle Nic! And Welcome into our Home!

Well about a month ago my brother came home from an LDS mission in Eugene Oregon. The kids were very excited to see Uncle Nic. We were even more excited that he was going to come stay with us until September while he finishes up his Associates at BATC. Which will be really fun, to have the kids get to know Nic a little better. And even me, he was only 6 when I last lived at home so besides family get togethers, I haven't come to really know Nic as an adult as well as my younger sisters.

Cate and Friends

I just had to include some pics of Cate and her cute little friend Sienna. We have started to get them together to play, since they are so close in age, and so similar. I can't believe Cate is now old enough to go play at friends houses, and have them come here. I am not liking my baby grow up so fast. It was pretty cute though both girls have curly blonde hair and when Sienna came to play the other day she was wearing a jacket exactly like the one Cate had on earlier that day. So I had to get a pic, and also got them making butterfly cookies in their dress up clothes. It so SO DIFFERENT watching two little girls play. They are so darn cute, and SO GIRLY. It is all about princesses, fairies, and baby dolls with Cate.
