Blah, Blah, Blah Random Updates!!





So anyway! Van is on it's last leg. Spend $700 right at Christmas to fix it. Beginning of Feb. it's dead. Like forever dead. It's not coming back. :-( Bad news. GOOD NEWS is now we have an Armada! So nice and roomy for the boys. TV keeps them from killing each other too! Six working windows more cup holders than one could ever use about a bjillion storage compartments. Yeah I like it.
My brother and his family came up to see us!! I love it when we get together!! Randy and I are total nut jobs and his poor wife Paige puts up with us. Their daughter Brittany came too but Greg stayed home this time. We had a wonderful visit and even played a little golf out back. Weekend weather was incredible!! Plus Randy fixed just about everything there was to fix around here too. ^_^
OH!! I got a new phone. Trying very hard to get used to that. Touch screen and I are not getting along too well so far.
This week we have a home-school play to go to on Friday and then we leave on Sat. to take my mom back up to Illinois. The boys and I will probably stay for a week maybe two to get her settled back in and see how she does. I am NOT looking forward to that drive again.
We can't be up there too long since the boys soccer will be in full swing again soon. Yay! We just can't wait. They are so excited to get back out there. This year we're going with a more competitive group which is just what Ethan needs. I'm not so sure about Zac and Alex but we'll see.
So there it is. February in a nutshell!
