2 Months later....


So it has been awhile since I last updated...2 months to be exact...bad blogger...Feb is a short month so that makes a difference right?

SO what have we been up to....

Lil' J and M are still playing Star Wars...Lego Star Wars on the xbox, acting it with things out of the dress-up box (like seen here, don't ask me who he is but it is Star Wars that he is playing), playing with the Star Wars little figures and space ships that we have gotten them over the holidays, building ships and pretend guys from legos for a giant battle, and I even saw M doing it at school with some of his little friends when I went in to help the class. They are pretty dedicated fans.

We got our nice tax refund and helped the economy by purchasing a new couch, love seat and an end table. (Actually brand new too...not from a friend or at a garage sale...although we did get it at a Clearance center)

J has been going on "trips" here and there.

I have joined our local MOPS group.

We finally whined enough and housing installed new cabinets and counter-tops in our kitchen. Notice the 5" gap I have between my oven and a half and the counter....moving that huge thing is a pain...and the gaps was actually spread on both sides...otherwise it wasn't anywhere close to the exhaust fan to make any good for that. I think the boys had it out for me as well and they would through their toys back there and I would have to move the whole oven out to get the precious toy they thought would be fun to put back there. I will post pictures of the after maybe in a couple months...since that seems to be my tendency. Lets just say I LOVE my new cabinets and counter-tops and now if they would come back and finish the job and replace the trim board that goes around my door frame.

J has started his Masters program. He has two classes currently all CD and Internet based...lots of papers and that is about it.

I took the boys out in the snow a couple weeks ago (we really haven't gotten any all winter) and actually built a snow man and started building a snow fort with a brick maker. The y had a blast...well except J, he just wanted to do the opposite of what M thought would be fun.

I have been going into M's class a couple times to help out with special parties/activity days. Green Eggs and ham was the most recent one, and they did make Green Eggs and ham with some toast....the toast was the only thing the M ate.


SO that is about it for now...until next time...

Hi Mindy, I just checked my blog list and saw yours. Thought I'd just stop by and say hi and glad to see that you guys are still around. Congrats on the new furniture and kitchen upgrades.
