Happy New Years!

For New Years we hung around the house for the most part. We did wonder out and bought Monopoly and some treats for a game night. The kids LOVED Monopoly! We played it pretty much everyday of the break. On Friday, we took the kids to the Rush and went bowling and played arcade games.

Maykayla loved bowling and wanted every turn to be her turn. Mom eventually gave in and let her bowl for me too! She would clap every time it hit a pin and say, "Yay!" 

 Levi was the serious bowler who thought it would be as easy as on the Wii. Which means he was disappointed unless he got a spare or a strike! Competitive little man.

 Zack would still dance when he knocked a bunch down, especially when he got a spare!

 On Saturday, we took the kids down to Grandma and Grandpa's for a bit. We swung by the Lego store on the way down so the kids could use their money to buy a mini figure. As Levi put it the other day after he bought his own matchbox car at the store, "I am just like a dad now!" I laughed out loud. They work so hard and are so proud of themselves when they buy it themselves.

 We hit up lunch with Bumpa and Grandma, followed by IKEA on our way to their house. The kids played for a bit before we met the Johnson's and the Boston's at Classic Skating in Sandy. We brought the kids new scooters. Besides a goose egg or two they had a blast!

I was tired of feeling yucky this week and finally caved to go in at day 10 of a sore throat and that day a gigantic ear ache. Well, I guess I should have waited a day or two because that all started to fade the next day AND he did not give me anything since I didn't have a fever or a sinus headache, so it was pointless. I thought the fact that it had been 10 days of not sleeping due to a sore sore throat was enough! The kids were good, but it was not exactly well spent time in my books!

My mom sent me this sweet pic of Kellie and I with our Grampy.

We did it. We have a boat load of wood for our basement. Let the finishing begin!
