A blog update

I have been so bad about updating the blog. Our family has been sick for the past month. All my photos that I wanted to upload got lost somewhere. My hubby downloaded them onto a cd for me and now the cd's disappeared thanks to some lovely children of mine. So, I think I will just do a little recap!!

December~

We spent Christmas in Utah, a hairy ride down, and a LONG one coming back. We thought we'd missed all the crappy weather till we hit Idaho and the traffic on the freeway hit 25 mph. It was solid ice. Thanks to the ice there were many rollovers and slideoffs, but we managed to stay on the road. Outside of Idaho we quickly found out the freeway was shut and we'd be taking the backroads home. A 2 lane highway that was snowy and icy. Fun stuff. Needless to say it took us about 17 hours to get home instead of 11. But we made it safely home!!

January~

We celebrated S's 35th birthday on the 12th.
On the 22nd we celebrated the Twins birthdays at Chuck E Cheeses where Papa and Grammy surprised them. They loved that. Little S wouldn't eat he just wanted to run around and see everything. It took some convincing!!

February~

The 6th was mom and dad's 35th wedding anniversary. We celebrated it at work with a surprise cake and goodies. They had no clue and it was great!!!

We celebrated Little S's 2nd birthday. I can't believe he's 2 already. Boy how the time flies. He was a pro at opening his presents and loved them all. He especially loved the clothes. He also has found a love for Mater and Lightening McQueen from the Cars movie. So his birthday consisted of all Cars stuff. Fun for him! He loved blowing out the candles too and did a marvelous job at it. I didn't make a cake this year cause I had to work and I was sick and being lazy so we had cinnamon rolls that works just as well!

I rescued a cat that was hanging around the bar one evening. He is such a sweetheart. I brought him home and the other cat hates him, but that was to be expected. The only problem now is we can't find him. He's always gone outside and come right back in but now we don't know where he went, maybe someone else took him. The kids are sad. He was a lap cat!! Oh well I guess.

And who would have guessed that at the end of February we would get a snow storm. Normally by now we are heating up into the 50's. It wasn't a bad one and did cover the roads, but it was kind of nice to see.

And here we are to March. Still trying to get over being sick! Everyone in the family has been sick for a month. The kids all missed probably a week and a half of school. It's been crazy! We have been trying to get everyone feeling better and get back into the routine of the day ( which was thrown out almost everyday we weren't feeling well). I will try and keep up the blogging better. If I can find my cd I will download some pics!
