I have Wednesdays off and I love my Wednesdays. We had a good day today. We were able to go riding with Kyle today to check for baby calves. One cow was a little snorty with Jenae on Beauty, but it all worked out ok.
Jenae was excited to spend some time with Grammy. After Marilyn got out of school she picked Jenae up from our house and took her home with her so they could do make some puppets. Both girls LOVE to spend time over at Grandpa and Grammy's house.
Friday I am going to get my wisdom teeth take out. I really do not have any idea what to expect. Some people seem to have no trouble with getting them taken out and others seem to not get along so good. I guess time will tell how it will go for me. My mom is going with me and and will be staying with them for the weekend.
Kyle is headed up to Minnesota to put on a steer wrestling school for the weekend.

I hope you all have a great weekend!

Things have been going well for our family. The girls seem to be growing up so fast. We have been busy with potty training. Aubree seems to be "ready", we have been working on it for about a week and she has made good progress :-).

It was a year ago tomorrow that Aubree was life flown to Children's Hospital for intussusception. That was such a scary moment in our lives, one that I hope to never have to experience again. Watching your 6 month old baby be strapped on to a board and sent off in a helicopter is a very helpless feeling. We are thankful everyday that she if fully recovered and doing so well.

Jenae has been keeping really busy riding Beauty. She has become quite the ranch hand. She would much prefer to get to stay home with Dad or Grandpa as opposed to going to day care.

Kyle was in Texas this past week. He left down there Saturday night, he was over 1000 miles from home. He made the trip in less than 22 hours by himself. We were all glad to see him coming down the driveway about 8:00 last night.

Well Christmas and New Years is officially over! Back to the real world now. The week from Christmas to New Years was really busy, but we had a really good time. We started our celebration on Christmas Eve Day. Santa came a day earily so we could enjoy the morning. Jenae is sure he came early since she was so good last year. We had a nice relaxing day at home. That evening we went to Kyle's Parents house for a delicious Christmas Eve dinner. We opened presents. The girls were thrilled with their gifts. We woke up Christmas morning and headed to Newman Grove to have Christmas at My Grandma Forre's house. It was a fun day. The house was very active. A LOT of little ones running around :-) I had to work the day after Christmas so we headed back home Christmas afternoon. That night we settled in and watched True Grit. It was a very relaxing Christmas night, it is hard to beat a good John Wayne movie. Jenae loves westerns and Aubree likes to watch anything on tv that involves horses. Sunday the 28th we had Christmas at Kyle's sisters house with Kyle's Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins. We had a really good time. It is always fun to get together. We hardly saw Jenae that day. She was off playing with Bryan and Reece(Kyle's cousins kids) most of the day. New Years Eve we spent at my sister Danielle's house. We played games and just hung out. We also learned that our family is growing some more. Dusty and his wife Erin are expecting there 2nd baby and Lacey and her husband Jacque are expecting there first baby. Next summer my parents will have 8 grandchildren ages 5 and under!!! What fun! We finished off our Holiday week at my parents house for dinner on New Years Day. The week was just awesome. I enjoyed every minute of it. At the same time I am happy to be back to a normal routine...what ever normal is for us ;-)

Well Christmas is almost here! I am so excited for Christmas this year. The presents are all wrapped and under the tree, the baking is all complete, and we are all anxiously awaiting for the holidays to arrive. We will spend Christmas Eve at Kyle's parents house, then we will head to Newman Grove to have Christmas at my Grandma Forre's.
I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and have save travels where every you may be headed!

Happy Holidays to everyone! It is crazy to think Christmas is less than 10 days away. I am feeling pretty good about where I am at with my preparation for Christmas. I still want to do a little more baking but other than that I am pretty well set.

Jenae is very excited about Christmas. For her it can not get here soon enough! Every night since Thanksgiving she asks me "is tonight the night that Santa is going to come?"

Aubree is busy just being Aubree. She keeps herself very entertained with her babies. She lines up all her dolls on the floor and and feeds them.

I will post more pictures soon!
