Last Christmas in Kansas

I hate to say but it is. Wow it just snuck right up on us and now we have 5 months left. Christmas was awesome and i have to say we loved staying here for Christmas we did miss our familys alot and we tried really hard to stay busy and go shopping everynight and take the boys and just hangt out with them and even though we didnt get any SNOW!!! We had alot of fun just us. We took alot of pictures i just have to post them when i put them into the picture file. Christmas day we went and ate dinner with the Rogers and played pictionary that night and now Ryan and I are hooked on the game of all Games right. Then on New Years Eve we went and Hung out with the Newtons what a awesome family we played games and laughed and talked and didnt leave there house until 1:00 in the morning it was so fun. So we had alot of fun during Christmas and we had familys that really took us in under there wings and had a good christmas. Iam really gratefull for the Time that we have had here. We will always come back and visit it will always be a second home to us. We have met alot of cool people and done alot of stuff that we never even dreamed of. Yes we do need to go and do alot more from what everyone says we havent done but we will get there. We are still here for 5 more months.

My final Gingerbread house

Have you ever made a gingerbread house and it turned out? Well i havent and let me tell you the experiance i had was crazy. So we had our good friend Kyson come over and he made a model out of cardbored box of my parents Log Home. Then Ryan made the dough and i put it together, well that is how it was suppost to go until i put it together. I had everything ready to put up with the glue icing and i had lots of time before our ward christmas dinner and i had Ryan hold the piece of the roof and when we put it on because the roof was so heavy (which i wasnt thinking that at the time) it COLASPED. So i was disappointed but then i got a idea. I took the model cardbored and frosted it and put a deer and trees around it and to my suprize it looks awesome I think anyways. I did take it to the ward christmas party that night and entered it in the gingerbread house contest and took 2nd place hilariouse Hu? I acually didnt want to take it but then thought i spent alot of freakin time on this i better take it anyways. Always have a A plan and a B plan and if your me just in case have a C plan. When you have a plan it always works out.

Back to School

Well i have to say christmas breaks are to long i think, well ok when your a parent i think christmas breaks are to long. We had a great time as just us as a fam this christmas. Staying here and not driving that long drive what is it about between 16 and 18 hours long back to Idaho is the worse ride i have ever taken. Are kids do just fine its us that have the hardest time. But being home was stress free. Now Kolby has to go back to school, and i think he is ready. Alot of fun and good times in 2008, and i think 2009 will be about the same and more. Here is to looking forward. Crazy Hu?

Poor Bambi.....

Well my husband came home with a deer, and to my suprize it was not just a deer but a bambi deer. I wasnt as happy and i should be cuz its meat, but BAMBI iam having a hard time eating the poor thing. It was his last time to go hunting in Kansas and of all the times he went he came home with nothing. So i think having this little deer he became happy when he cleaned the ribs and marinated it and cooked it. When he pulled it out of the oven and he gave me a piece of it i have to say WOW what amazing piece of meat. I have never tasted deer meat like that and it was good. But he will never come home with a little deer again it was to weird for me.
