Happy Birthday Allie, Joe, and Sam !!!!!!

Can we believe they are 12? We celebrated (dinner and a movie) early with Scott, then Grandma Sherie flew in and we had cake and ice cream, Then Tyler, Carey, Calvin, and Liam came to visit for a few days. We had so much fun seeing and visiting with them all. You all are the greatest! It is great to have so much support and love. I got a job at the kids' school. I gave my two week notice(at the Dental Office)and I start on Feb.11th. I think it will be fun to be there, where they are!

MAGGIE

Allie, Joe, Sam and I got an early birthday present this year. We got a boxer puppy. Her name is Maggie. She is so sweet and cute, but she doesn't quite get the potty training thing. We all love her! Malachi is happy about becoming a big brother. He is really good to her. We are now OFFICIALLY done adding to our pets. Two dogs, two cats, one snake, one tortoise, and five kids! Ha, Ha, Ha,
Happy New Year!!!

Happy New Years!!!

New Year's Eve Day, we went to the Hinkle Family Fun Center. I know it's a wierd name, but it is a lot of fun. The kids played Lazer Tag, some reality alien game thing, and bumper cars. They had so much fun! On the way home we stopped at a really neat bird pet store to see the birds. No, we did not get a bird! Can you believe it? We ate pizza, watched movies, and lit fireworks off, at midnight. We got up this morning and went sledding with a bunch of friends. It was a blast! We only had a few accidents. Allie won't be sitting for very long. Her tailbone got bruised. They all have complained about sore muscles, at some point today. At least it's not a broken bone. Over all we just had a really great time. We hope you all have a great new year. Love you all!
