March 9th-15th

Last week went by really fast. I worked all 5 days instead of the normal 4. I had to take Max to the vet on Friday, just for his normal checkup, shots included. He did fine! She tricked him with a treat, so he didn't even realize what was happening.

Mike and Kristian have been playing A LOT of Guitar Hero II on the Playstation. So much so that they were able to unlock a new song. FREE BIRD! At first it was great, but after 4 nights of FREE BIRD several times a night, I was ready to take the guitar and smash it into the floor!

Saturday, Mike went over and worked on his '37 at his friend Bryan's house. Me and the kids ran into town to run some errands. Later that afternoon we went to a park over in Calhan called the Paint Mines. I have been wanting to check it out for a while, but the weather hasn't cooperated with us. It was a really nice place, from what we could see. I failed to realize that since it was cliffs and gulleys that there would be snow still in them! Oops. But atleast we got to get out and walk. I think we are all ready for the weather to warm up a bit.

On Saturday night we had some friends (The Bowens) come out for a visit. Brett is also a fan of Guitar Hero and plays a guitar in the "real world" too. So they 'jammed' for a while with that. The kids had a great time playing too.

Sunday was a "lay around the house" day. Mike and I watched some movies that I had rented, while the kids played Guitar Hero, did homework and just aggrevated each other. I know BIG surprise. When Dylan went down for a nap, Mike, Kristian and I watched Pirates of the Caribean II. Yep, we are just now watching it! We don't go to the movies that much unless it is a kids movie.

Since Tracy, the person I babysit for, was in Vegas, I had Monday and Tueday off. So Dylan and I got to have Mommy and Dylan days. On Monday we went to town and went shopping, had lunch and then swung by to pick up Kristian from school. On Tuesday, Dylan and I ran some errands and had another lunch together. (Have to take advantage of it just being the two of us!) Mike went over to Bryan's again to work on his car. Me and the boys took advantage of the nice warm weather and cleaned out the garage. Then we road the 4-wheelers for a bit before it got too dark.


Wednesday meant back to work. Kristian got dismissed early from school since it was Parent Teacher Conferences this week. (He got A's and B's so he doesn't have to get his hair cut, something his dad told him would happen if he got a C) I had Rebecca and Jacob late since Tracy had conferences (she is 1st grade teacher). We all rode the 4 wheelers and played outside.


And now today... the weather is COLD again! We actually saw some snowflakes this morning. I wish it would just stay warm. And not go back and forth like this.


We are going up to Denver this weekend. Jacob is being baptized on Saturday night. We are going up tomorrow and staying till Sunday. Max will be staying at a Pet Resort for the weekend. Can you believe they call it that? It is nothing more than a barn with a fence around it.


Anyway, I will see you all next week. Have a great weekend!!
