CATCH UP TIME!!!

Okay, then. I'm not usually this bad about keeping up on the blog, so I'll try to get caught up here. Since my last post a LOT has happened!! Over the summer we did a lot of hiking & going to the lake, etc. We had a lot of fun & the summer was beautiful here. In September Indy & Landon started school & Dave & I celebrated our 11 year anniversary (13 years together total!). Indy turned 11 & Bodi turned 3 in October. Also in September we found out that Dave has stage 4 Lymphoma (as most of you know). The same week we found that out, we found out we are expecting baby #4! Wow, was that a rollercoaster week! Dave is doing pretty good & he is still able to work. Luckily his job has been flexible & he is able to rest when he needs to for the most part. Since he started practicing as a chiropractor in January, business has been slowly picking up, even through his cancer treatments! He is a wonderful chiropractor & his patients really like him. He has a couple months left of treatment & we are hopeful that he will be cured. Interestingly, through our trials, we have also received many blessings- we'll have a new baby in April (which truly is a blessing because we were trying to add to our family for a while but thought we had to postpone it when we found out about the cancer); we bought a new car; and we're getting ready to close on our first home!! It's been a whirlwind lately, but those of you who know us well, know that we are positive and strong. Love you all!!

4th of July

Went to stay with some friends in a cabin over the weekend. We went swimming at the clubhouse pool, the kids went tubing/rafting down a river and went for rides in the Kubota, played video games (I know, we really roughed it), and we saw a fireworks show. It was lots of fun!!

Bad, Bad Girl

Well, since moving I haven't been very good about keeping up on the blog. Here's what we've been up to in a nutshell: camping, gardening, swimming lessons, piano lessons, going to the lake, reading, etc., etc. We're loving our new home, but we didn't forget about our old one. Hello to all our Texas friends!!

Snow Days

We love being in the snow! It snowed for a while where we live now, so we played in it as much as possible. We also went up to the mountain for some sledding.

Prodigy

What can I say, the kid has talent.

More Gems From Landon

~ "I'm just so tired, my joints hurt." (This is when he's done playing/running around & doesn't want to do what I've asked him to. Also evidence he is a chiropractor's son.)

~ "My spine is tired." (Same as above)

~ "It evapt." (This is when something has already evaporated.)
