January 2010
The new year has been wonderful to us. We have had a lot of fun starting with Autumn's Birthday. When I asked her what kind of party she wanted she said, "A Coconut Party!" So with her direction I got coconuts to put pinacolada drink mix in and had an ariel birthday cake. The kids played limbo and pin the tail on the donkey. It was a great success and a lot of fun.
The days have started to get a little warmer her so we thought it would be fun to take the kids tubing. Jon and I recently had gone tubing for a date and knew the girls would love the adventure. So we took them over to a small hill across from parkside lanes and the girls giggled and laughed as they went down. Dean even took a turn!!! It really is so much fun with kids. It brings the child out in ya.
Recently we also took the kids to the Circus. Wow!!! The girls were running wild and they even got to ride an elephant before the show started. The girls were mesmerized for two hours of tricks, animals, dealth defying feats, and even a clown. Makenna's favorite was the motorcycle's (there were two of them) going around in an encaged ball. Autumn liked riding the elephant. It had been a long time since we'd gone and the kids loved it.
As for our life Jon started school yet again. He is doing pre-requisites so he can take the DAT and apply for Dental School. Crazy, it has totally been crazy. He still has two semesters left of pre-recs before we know for sure where this rode will take us, but as for the near future we also found out that Jon will be selling this summer in St. Louis. I can honestly say I wasn't thrilled, but I am hoping for the best. I hear it is really family friendly and only a couple hours from Nauvoo so we could potentially have a lot of fun out there and if anyone wants to visit come on out :)
Happy Valentines to all!!!!
