February Catch Up!

I know I'm horrible at blogging, I'm really trying to get better! Sometimes I wonder if I have anything interesting happening? Oh well it's life and we will go on!
The month of February has been busy just like everyother month it seems! The one thing the kids really love in Jan. Feb. is that they get to go skiing, or snowboarding with the school. The boys got their snowboards in 08 and learned to snowboard last year. Well this year it was Carli's first year to get to go, so Dad was awesome enough to go up with her class and help her learn to ski. According to Kevin she is a natural! She only fell once cause she was waiting on dad and had to slow down. Well she now has the ski bug! She loves it, she joined ski club at school and went up twice on the bus. She was so good she was even riding the big lift with her friend Sydie on her last trip! We are very excited for her and can't wait til we can take her up again!

Cody and Coltin both got to do ski club with the Jr. High so they got to go skiing 3 times with their buddy Andy. The last time they didn't get to go because they had a temple trip which was okay with them.
They have both been taking shop this year in school. Cody has completed a big project, he made me an oak bread box! It is beautiful! He really did a good job on it and we are proud of him!

Caden didn't get to go skiing (yet) so one day when everyone was gone we had our own date night. It was his idea for the two of us to go out. He came home from school and got all showered and even used some of his dad's cologne! We got all ready and I let him pick where we were going. I was expecting McDonald's or maybe Guadalajara's. Nope he picked Morey's Steakhouse! I was shocked, I didn't expect that one!. He was a perfect gentleman! He opened my door for me and escorted me in. We were the only ones there so he got to pick out the perfect seat overlooking the river! Ordered dinner for us and was the perfect conversationalist!
He was wondering what dad and Carli were up to so we called and invited them to join us! Then at the end of dinner Caden went and paid for us all! He was so excited to do that! We then went to the store and took some icecream home for everyone to enjoy! He is going to be a great date when he gets older!

Kevin, he has been busy helping me to run things here at home! I love this guy! He is sooo awesome! We have been going to a doctor in Twin Falls once a month for about 6 months now and Kevin is awesome, he is a rock! We are both trying to lose those unwanted pounds and doing pretty well! We have both lost at least 20 lbs. and both with in 12-15 pounds of our original goal weights. He pushes me to try to eat better, which i will admit, I get the munchies alot more than he does, or he doesn't give into them as much? I don't know, but he is a great example for me!

That is a brief Jan. Feb. Catch up! Hopefully it won't be the end of March or April before I catch up again!
