What's New...?

Wow! Its been such a long time since I've last blogged. We don't have a lot of super exciting stuff going on in our lives right now, we've just been busy living them!
Todd is working back in Minnesota for the time being so we are soaking up as much time as a family as possible! We are getting so spoiled that we never want him to leave again!
I am keeping busy with work and what social life I have...which isn't much nowadays! The kids keep me on my toes! My sister and brother-in-law just bought a house in Buffalo so I have been over there a lot helping them get settled and paint! Not an easy task with a huge house with vaulted ceilings! I know I complain about my "hole in the wall" but I would choose to paint this house anyday over that house! But the high point of all of this...? My house is due for a paint job too so paybacks will be noted!
Bryce has joined track this year for spring sports! We are super excited about this; we love keeping busy with things like this! He hasn't had his first meet yet but he gets to help out with the Varsity meets and of course, dorks of parents we are...went and watched him help with the Varsity meet! Yeah I know...!
Morgan is still dancing her way to the top! She has her second recital of the year coming up on Labor Day Weekend and she just joined a compitition dance league that starts with a competition in May in Eden Prairie! Hopefully that goes well because she is super excited about it! She dances all over the house showing us her moves!
We are getting super excited for this summer with Winstock fastly approached and some family camping trips planned! Hopefully this cold weather will slow and the warmer weather will show its face so we can get this busy summer a rollin'!

Super Bowl 2011

Today we are hosting our first Super Bowl party! We are excited and currently getting everything ready to go! We"re having lots of friends and family over which we are really excited for! Not a big fan of the Packers or the Steelers but we are huge fans of football around here! Not sure who I'm cheering for yet...I think I might decide once the first 3rd down comes for each team! If they can get past that...they might have a chance! Both teams are great and both quarterbacks have different things about them that can offer the team a chance to win! Which one will do better? That is the question! Its Sunday....Football time..! You can't go wrong either way!

Engagement

Unbelievable! 3 years ago today my husband popped the question! He got down on one knee and made my dreams come true! Time just flies by! I cannont believe we have already been married for over a year. I thank God everyday for the love he shows me and the family we have together! I love you so much Todd! Happy 3 year engagment anniversary! (If that exists!)

Basketball

What can I say....Watching 4th graders play basketball was a laugh that I haven't had in a long time! When I played I honestly don't remember looking that horrible! The coach tries so hard but girls at that age just don't have a whole lot of coordination! They just kinda run back and forth and throw the ball up in huge crowds and whoever catches that ball catches the ball. It was the funniest thing....the coach tries to tell the girls to keep their arms/hands up to look open and to stop the other team from scoring. The coach will yell, "girls, arms up" and the whole team will stop and throw their arms up in the air! Totally hilarious!
Those girls try so hard! Morgan scored her first basket which she was super excited about! They won their first game and lost their second game only by 1 basket! She is looking forward to her next game!

Morgan's Basketball Game

We are so excited for Morgan's first basketball game this weekend, but I think Morgan is more excited! She gets to play 2 games on Saturday morning against Rockford! She gets to be the white team so she is trying to match everything to her white jersey; her shoes, shorts and headbands! We are in for a long haul if she is already doing this at age 10! Results to follow on how she does after Saturday!

Morgan's Winter Dance Recital

Morgan had her winter dance recital this past Saturday night!
She did an amazing job and looked beautiful all dolled up as always!
She had lots of family and friends there to support her,
which she enjoyed but got very embarrassed once they all wanted
pictures as usual! Her winter dance recital is all ballet and the spring recital
is the hip hop one which I personally enjoy much more! She is getting better and better
each year! She prances around the house all year practicing her routines so she can nail them!
She did! We love you Morgy! We are so proud of you!
