Happy New Year & Back to School


We started 2009 by ringing in the New Year at our place with some of our good friends and family. The evening began with a poker tournament (Texas Hold'em style) followed by lots of eating and hanging out while people took turns playing Rock Band. Most of our friends had never played it before and they had a blast!

This past weekend we went over to the west side to finally celebrate Christmas with my dad and step-mom. The pass looked good so we took advantage of the weather and headed over the mountains. We had a great time and of course the kids got spoiled! Some of Daniel's loot included a Madden 09 Wii game, a hunting Wii game, a digital camera, a special type of basketball he's been wanting for quite some time (and I thought all basketball's were all the same), and Wii Fit for him and Kelsi. Maci was so excited when she opened her pink DS and Barbie game that she could have not opened another gift and been perfectly happy. She yelled out "This is exactly what I have wanted for so long...I love it". :-) Kelsi loved her Guitar Hero for DS, a digital camera, movies, etc. It's sure fun to watch all the kids (and quite chaotic) when we're together.

School starts back tomorrow....let the craziness begin! Daniel basketball practice and a three day basketball tournament this weekend beginning Friday. Kelsi has bowling practice and two matches (one home and one away) this week and Kevin starts coaching girls basketball tomorrow every day after school. It's not too bad of a schedule this week so I'm pretty excited. :-)
