Cascade

We went to Cascade a couple of weekends ago and had a blast. My parents came with us and we hung out around the cabin, playing games, eating, sledding and snowmobiling; it was so much fun! We haven't been up there since we moved, so it was nice to get away.

Last weekend was my 26th birthday. I decided to have an open house for my new business venture. I had a great turnout. I had a lot of people ask me why I would want to have a "shoe party" on my birthday, I figured what better way to see a whole bunch of the people I like & make a little extra money! Jaime put together a surprise birthday party for me with our family, his mom kinda gave it away when she called to tell me that she was comming to the bbq and would bring rice, but needed someone to pick her up!!

This week should be nice and quiet, not much planned. Gab's is playing with her friend Julianna, they play really well together. Actually, right now they are playing too well, they have 3 board games 2 puzzles and barbies out, I think I should go and do some damage control!

My wall-e girl

This is Gabbo's Wall-E impression, She loves to make people laugh. I think she does a pretty good job for a 3 year old who's only seen the movie once!!

2009

2009 is here and I'm sure well on it's way to speeding by me like a freight train!! I usually don't make any resolutions, and this year is no different, maybe someday I'll be ambitious enough to say I'm going to do something and then actually do it!
but I would love to hear about everyone's resolutions, I think it's neat, and I'd also like to be able to say I know some very ambitious people,and also some crazy ones!!

And I'm done

Oh my goodness! This has been the fastest moving holiday season I have ever had. I'm loving the snow, Jaime and I spent the better part of yesterday looking for a sled, no luck though, I'm pretty sure there isn't a sled for sale in the treasure valley, if anyone knows where we can buy one, let me know! Lots of fun from Christmas here are some of my fav pics.

The Weekend update

We had a great weekend, not too many things to do, just enough things to keep us from getting cabin fever. Friday we had movie night, Jaime and I have decided to "educate" our girls in the cinimatic wonders from the 80's and 90's. Don't ask me why, but they can't get enough of movies like "The Neverending story", "The Princess Bride", "Karate Kid", anything with Fred Savage or by Jim Henson. I really get a kick out of how much they love watching these old movies, bad special effects and all. This week it's all about Charlie Brown and Ducktales woo, oo. Now I want to know, what is your favorite movies from when you were a kid? With Thanksgiving and Christmas break comming up, we are going to have a lot of movie time on our hands!

Saturday Jaime and I attempted to clean out the garage, we didn't get very far but it was a noble attempt. We also participated in the Rake up Nampa thing, it was great, he had like 8 of his employee's and their spouses. We got to the house and their was 1 tree, yeah it was super hard work!! Mrs. Palmer was very appreciative though, she gave us cookies!

Sunday was nice, I slept in till 8:30, which is quite a feat in this family of early risers, made a big breakfast and basically vegged for the rest of the day, Jaime went and played B-ball with the guys from church.

History in the making

Regardless of how you feel about Barack, every American should be proud of the wonderful democracy that we live in. I thought that McCain's concession speech was so gracious,(though I can't say the same for some of his supporters) and I cannot remember a moving speech than Barack's. It was so full of hope, and compassion. Not once did he rub victory in the face of his opponent. The hopes and dreams of so many Americans weigh on his shoulders. I do know for sure that he can't do it alone. I am excited for the future maybe we can really become the "United states of America"
