My Newest ADDICTION!

I am addicted to GUITAR HERO. New Years Eve, Keith and Cammie invited us to their home for pizza and guitar hero. We went and now we are hooked. Gordon and I always said that we did not want video games in our home, but guitar hero is now my #1 birthday wish! In reality, we probably will not purchase the game. I'd rather have new running shoes so that I can keep my new year goals, which are...

1. Lose my "baby weight" by training for
2. the Half marathon in April, a full marathon in May and the Wasatch Back in June.
3. Be calm when driving. Keep the road rage under control..besides, the people who just dangerously cut in front of me must need to get to the hospital fast, or the person who turned the corner going 5-7 miles an hour off the main road must have a pot of soup in the back seat that they do not want to spill.
4. Pass my last class and get done with Weber State!

Happy New Year Everyone!!!!!!

Christmas

I finaly have a moment to sit and update our blog. Our little family went down to my brother-in-law's ranch for Christmas. We had so much fun! Christmas eve, when we arrived, a blizzard set in for several hours, leaving the 2 mile dirt "drive-way" covered with snow and 3 foot snow drifts. We actually arrived at the house before my brother-in-law and his cute family returned from a different family gathering, so we started a fire in the wood burning stove since we could not get the power generator to start. We just sat and watched the snow blow sideways and prayed for their safe return. Luckily, they arrived safe and we were able to have a nice dinner that night and a fun Christmas day. Some of the pictures in the slide show are of Alexander in his new christmas pj's, Dani (Alexander's cousin) and her new tricycle from Santa, Greg and Maleia's great dane dogs: Katie and King, Alexander ready to help with chores in his new vest and a view of part of the ranch from the front porch.
