Cute....I think

Ashton decided on Sun. Morning that he wanted to wear underwear. Well He was all dressed for mtg and I didn't really want him to get his clothes dirty..... so this is what we did. Then he found Mariah's headband (Which he loves to wear)....and this is what we got!

These two have so much fun together!

our weekend project

Jaden and Mariah helping us paint our Living room.
I was getting a little tired of painting. Three hours later and almost midnight.
Here is the finished look. New curtains, blinds and paint. I love it!
We painted Friday night. Saturday we hung the blinds and curtains then
ran into Madison to do some much needed errands (I needed a new cell phone-mine broke
and my contract was up so....) Got home about 7:00pm and at 8:30 the workers called and asked if they could come for lunch Sunday. So we quickly go busy and put the house back in order. I'll see if I can get a better picture and post it later.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to everyone. Hope all your resolutions will happen and will be your best year yet!!

Larry and the kids made a tunnel under the huge pile of snow that Larry and the neighbor made in the back yard. Yes the tunnel is still there and better than ever now that we had all the freezing rain. The kids can really slide down the top now and it is very hard.

Does anyone know a good place (website) to do online scrapbooking and be able to order the book when ready? I have decided that I just do not have the time anymore to scrapbook and especially not for three kids. I am so far behind that I thought it would be easier to do it all on computer since I download the pics anyway.

Jaden's school sing

These didn't come up in order. Jaden did a great job. The school puts on a little skit to go with each of the classes songs and Jaden had one sentence. "My Mom and Dad make me feel warm" and he had to use the microphone to say it. I was very proud of him. They expected 400 people to show up and I think they were fairly close to that. The theme of the sing was "Searching for Warmth" It was very cute.

It is hard to believe that my baby is 2 already. We took him out of his crib and put in a twin bed in Jaden's room. We thought this would be a good time to have Jaden adjust to it over the holiday break. So far things are going pretty good. Ashton need some time to learn that once you are in bed you stay there. Anyway-Ashton had 2 parties. One with G & G Clausen and the other at home with G& Papa Hehenberger. What a lucky kid! Thanks to everyone for the b-day gifts!

Wow It has been awhile again since I last blogged. A lot has happened.
I guess I need to start at Thanksgiving time...

A very busy time of year for us. We all (Kristie, Kim and Katresha and families and My Uncle and Aunt from TN) were all at my Mom and Dad's for a wonderful Thanksgiving meal. I didn't get many pictures cause we were so busy. My grandpa had passed away earlier in the week and than my parents neighbor passed away the day before Thanksgiving. So we did LOTS of baking. We baked some for the neighbors wife and family and for our own to take up to wausau to share with all extended family of 60 people. So sorry no pics from that time.

Then we went to Minnesota the weekend after that to see the In-Laws. We had a wonderful time but 7-8 hours in the car with 3 kids is long enough. We had some bad roads on the way back which didn't help with the stress level and the anticipation of just getting home.
