We are well into January and I am still on Christmas...time flies!
We had a good Christmas in the frigid Winnipeg. Dale was up for about 4 days and the boys and I stayed for a few more days. Mom and dad drove us back down to Iowa on the 29th. It was so nice to spend time with my family. There are 5 little ones now, and one on the way, so it is definitely louder and crazier than ever.


This is a recent pic of my two boys!


Bennett dancing around in the new pajamas he got for Christmas from Gerry and Michelle. They are awesome!


Family pic on Christmas day.


Evelyn, Megan and myself....my sistas! Evelyn is expecting a baby end of May and Megan is getting married in October, so there is so much going on! I am so excited for both of them.

Tate looking thrilled after Bennett opened his Christmas gift and then dumped it on top of him.

We have, as most people have, been reflecting on the past year, anticipating the year ahead and we are just so thankful. We have so many blessings in our lives.

May you all have a wonderful 2009!!!!!
