Happy 6 & 7 Birthday

Guess who is 6 & 7. My neices are getting soooo Big~

We celebrated a few weekends back at our house so they can have 5 friends each. My brother house did not have enough room. We had pizza, cakes & did activities ( making necklaces & sun catchers) They had a blast & so did I. The boys ( Jacob & their brother) played together. But then Jacob was interested in the activities. Also He liked the one little girl & proved it by planting a kiss on her. Also he invited one of the other girls up to his room. Thank god just to play but us adults got a kick out of it. The little girl he kissed was adorable~ but a little to young to being kissing any girls.

anyway HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my 2 favorite Princess

Lets go for a sled Ride

Today we decided to take our little guy to the park & go sled riding... Well He was not to thrilled with the idea... not cause of the sled riding but the cold. He lasted 20 mins than begged to go home. So we left. All that time dressing, preparing, etc. I thought he would love going. We will have to pick a warmer day. But tonight he said he does not like sled riding but to see him you would have thought he loved it he was smiling from ear to ear. Oh well, we will have to try again.

Good Bye to 2009... Welcome 2010

2009... what a year! There was several great things that happened. Such as our new house (where we want to be), Jacob understanding Christmas, Getting to know my sister in law& become good friends, Spending more time with family & my 2 men always make a great year. (Jacob & Michael & pup Simon). We took part in more activities...halloween parade. My sister is getting engaged. My friend Kim found out she is pregnant with 2 babies. Infertility treatments worked and one baby is a week ahead of the other. Medicine is an awesome thing!

But 2009 was really a rough year... or the roughest we have had. The move was rough, getting settled in the house since we were sick one after one another. Bronchitis, Flu, bronchitis again & again. Jacob getting stitches 2 times ( halloween he pulled car door open & got his finger caught between our car & other parked beside us).Not enough time in the day for everything. I was taken care of my sister in law every other day ( no complaints. I wanted to do it...) Just like I said before not enough time.... wish I had more time to spend w/ her. My sister in law passed. (miss you Donna)

My brother has had alot of health issues. Our uncle ( Michaels side) had 3 heart attacks but was lucky & is doing well. Lots of snow~ & cold. Hit a deer ( 1st & hopefully last) A SUV hit it sending it into my car & left with out checking on me or giving insurance. We only had liability since well its was 11 years old ( low mileage 23,000) & purschase it for $4000.00. It was is PERFECT shape ..old couple had it as a sunday car.... So now we are paying to fix..... BUT Jacob & I are fine & thats what matters. But I will forever remember the look on that poor deers face.. He truly was as scared as I was. Sorry poor Buck ( it was a buck not doe) And did you know 20 mins after hitting it someone had already stopped & cut its rack as hunters call it off. How sick is that.. Twisted~

Anyway I am sure there is more but I can not think of everything... Just a tough year. Mainly all the illness.

But we look forward to 2010. Its going to be a good one. I can feel it~

So here is to 2010........ Happy New Year
