Asta la vista Meli





















So Melissa is going to Iraq, which I guess is cool but mostly it sucks, but then its kinda cool. I don't know. Anyway, my perfect cousin Tanya threw her a good bye party to which I was unforgivably late to. Which is proof of how much I suck. Also, Chris had his work party to go to after so we left early. My perfect cousin Tanya, took the kids and watched them all night for us. I stole the pics I am posting of Tanya's blog which is more proof of how much I suck but oh well. I love Meli and will miss her. I am sorry I missed most of the party but I was glad I was able to participate. The boys love their aunts and cousins so it was great they got some time with them.

I know I haven't blogged in a long time. Things have been a little hectic with the flood. I am sure when things settle down a little I will be back and bloggin with the best of them. Here are a few pics for now and I will write more when I can. Today we are packing and getting ready to move out of the while everything will be fixed.

Happy Birthday Christian











Christian had a New Years sleep over for his birthday. Several of his friends came over and the boys had a blast.

Christian has turned out to be such an amazing young man. He is smart,funny, athletic and charming. He has had a great year at school and is excited that he will be in Middle School next year. (a topic that came up a bunch last night) I can't believe how big and mature he is. It seems like just yesterday he was a little boy. Somehow over night he has turned into a big boy with big boy dreams. He wants to play football but is good at baseball, basketball, skiing and golf. He was asked to be on a golf team this year but we just did not have the time. Christian would do just about anything if we let him. He enjoys his piano and wants to pass clarinet so he can move on to the saxaphone. He is such a good boy and he gets great grades, the teachers seem to like him ok. For now he is still just interested in sports not girls and I am really happy about that.
Last night was a fun filled evening packed with Dance Dance Revolution, Mario Kart, Great Outdoors, Rocky, apple pie, and ringing in the New Year. I am glad Christian has such awesome friends. He said it was the best birthday ever and I am glad. He wanted Uncle Don to make pancakes for his friends but had to settle for me making them but I think he was happy anyway.
