A total LOSER!

I feel like a total loser! I haven't been blogging as of late! I have lots of pics and no computer to download them on. My computer doesn't see any usb and hubby's computer decided to take a dive. So, I'm pictureless.!! :(

January has been a busy month! Here's a quick catch up!

January 12th was Shule's birthday! We took him to Mcrae's (a really yummy breakfast house!! to celebrate) It wasn't much of a birthday celebration. He got one present from us, which was only a tool set... Sorry hunny! (but he had decided he wanted a pair of DR. Marten's, and so we were gonna go buy them together, but now he doesn't know if he wants them...lol) I had to work Saturday night so Sunday we made brownies and sang happy birthday to him!

January 19th we had a big birthday bash at the pub for 5 January birthday's, including Shule's and Kari's. We had a band come in, had lots of yummy appetizers, and a big birthday cake from costco. I was able to take 4 hours off during the time of the band and hang out with my hubby. (Thanks Greg)!

January 22nd Joseph and Jaren celebrated their 6th birthday! Well we actually threw a surprise party for them at Chuck E Cheeses the night before with some friends and Grammy and Papa! They sure were surprised and had a great time! They got lots of fun presents and enjoyed themselves! Spencer got a trial run on his own birthday cupcake! He ate the whole darned thing and stayed relatively clean! I have pics!

Saturday the 26th, we celebrated our neice and cousin, Karley, first birthday. She enjoyed her ginormous cupcake and downed the whole thing! She sure is a cutie!

The boys have been sick ever since. They have been home this whole week with sickness. I think they are finally rounding the corner and will be able to return to school next week. YIPEE!!!

Sunday the 27th we had family dinner out at Tonya's house. It's nice to have family dinner once a month. The cook subs for Greg that Sunday and mom and dad can escape and we have one time a month where we can all get together and hang out. With Dad working everyday at the pub, mom working at the auction, and helping out at the pub, Greg working Sunday and Monday nights, and me working Tuesday through Saturday it's nice to be able to gather together and relax! It's also the time of the month that we celebrate everyone's birthdays. This month is a busy one with celebrating...Shule, Kari, Joseph, Jaren, Aayla, Karley, and Jayden(which actually isn't until today) but it was close enough to February! We all had a good time and yummy food! :)

We've had a few days of snow flurries and the kids have loved it. On Monday the kids had a snow day from school. Tuesday night it was coming down pretty hard in Boring, so mom, May(a coworker) went outside and had a snowball fight. It was cool. By the end of the night there was an inch or so of snow. As I was driving home which is only 10 minutes away, it stopped snowing and there was nothing even on the ground. Wierd how that works.!

Anyway...enough blabbing. I will try and figure out someway to get some pictures on here!

I sure hope you get the picture/computer thing straightened out soon.
It's good to see you blogging again! Say hello to Tonya for me and tell her to start a blog of her own. I'd love to see and hear all about her sweet family.
Hugs!!
