An update...WHAT????

What? It's February already. The time sure does go by quickly! What have we been up to the last 2 months? Christmas was great! Lots of food, fun, and family. January brought Hannah Montana for the girls and I. They loved it. Rachel said the only thing that would have made it better was if they turned the sound down. It was a lot of fun. I enjoyed the Jonas Brothers more than Hannah Montana / Miley Cyrus, but it was a well put together show! I have some video I taped with my new camera Scott bought me for Christmas. I thought I had ruined it, because when I got back to the van to watch some of the video, there was no sound. I thought all the screaming blew the audio on the camera. (The screaming actually made my ears ring - kinda like when the kids have a high pitched squeel in the car...or right next to your ear!) But it worked and we got some fun video memories.

Speaking of screaming at concerts, I was overcome with excitement when I found out that New Kids on the Block were reuniting and touring again. I am SO THERE! I can feel like a teenager again if only for one night.
This month, I hate to think about it to much, but Rachel turns 8 and is going to be baptized. I don't hate to think about her getting baptized, but about how the last 8 years have slipped by and I know the next 8 will probably go by at warp speed. I am excited that my mom and grandma are coming down for the baptism. It's too bad it will be the "cattle call" type, but I guess I have to be grown up about it and deal! Not that I will like it though!

I hope everyone has a Happy Valentines. Any suggestions on a fun Valentines dinner for kids? I was thinking about making heart pancakes and eggs tinted red/pink? Not quite sure though.

I guess you got enough slack from Kim and Christy that you decided to post? :-)

Jake looks so grown up there!
