Slacker Update

So yeah, I'm a slacker. What can I say? Here's an update of what's been happening since well, last post was Dec 16, 2008, I guess!

-Christmas was crazy, we went to Iowa and Minnesota. Road tripping wasn't such a blast in the subzero temps and overexcited kids. They had a wonderful time though.
-Mackenson is learning his colors. He associates them with Sesame Street characters because he has a book with the colors and characters.
-Marie had her 100th day of kindergarten. They had a party and according to her, ate a lot of candy.
-Joe has been gone during the week a lot for work the past month or so. Next week he is supposed to be home all week.
-The Harlem Globetrotters came to Louisville and we went to the game!
-There was a huge ice storm last week that wiped out power for many people and businesses around us. Luckily we had heat and only lost water for a couple of days. Marie's school cancelled 7 days.
-Joe lost a bet on the Superbowl and has to grow out his hair! Hahaha!
-We are almost done refinishing Mack's dresser and Joe is almost done building/painting his shelf. He completed the refinishing of the dining room table leaves.
-The kids borrowed a Dora movie from the library and watched it over and over and over again. Joe and I now know the entire theme song.
-Marie's new favorite book is Zack's Alligator, Mack's is Dora's Nursery Rhyme Adventure.
-I took Melissa's advice on Walgreens Super Saver for free stuff (rebate)!
-Joe has a goal to buy another diesel car, bigger hopefully, and convert it to run off cooking oil. No, it isn't something he thought of in the middle of the night, it's for real!

I guess that's all I can think of right now. Maybe we'll win the lottery and I'll have something cool to write about tomorrow.
