We have had a super relaxing day today. Only a few more days and the kids are back in school. It has been alot of fun having them home all the time. Never a dull moment! We went to the first annual kid/adult party at Zermatt and it was alot of fun. They had face painting and lots of food, desert, dancing, musical chairs, and more. I would say it was a success! Lot of people attended. I liked the fact that the ball drops at 10:00pm in New York.....we watched that on BIG screens and then everyone with small children cleared out. They had the party and fun and didn't have to stay up till 12:00am. I wish that would have been me. The girls were out late last night. They went to a dance and then over to the Scotts (Youngmens Pres) for breakfast at 1:00 am. Then off to Grandma K's to party more!!! I really couldn't relax till I knew they were off the roads for the night.
We are looking forward to a super new year. I am sure it will be interesting. Darin's job at Zermatt is going well. Things are slowing down but not too much. Jenessa and Larissa are both working up there as well.
Mom and I had fun the day after Christmas creating a blog for her. I think she enjoyed it. It is fun to hear how people are doing and this seems to be a good way. I don't know about you but I have not received a letter in years and I don't know that I could write a letter anymore without my hand cramping. Go check it out at http://www.pkohlerfam.blogspot.com/. I am sure you will find it a big suprise to see pink!!! Lisa is doing well. She is up and about a little. I am happy to see her taking her time and not trying to do too much too soon. Her blog is http://www.christenfam.blogspot.com/. If you would like an invite to see her blog let me know. Her's is private but we haven't made moms private yet.
We had a great Christmas dinner at the shelter on Saturday with the Family. Mick and Kim did a great job!! Very Festive. We missed those that weren't there.
Larissa is driving!! Clear the roadways!! She will be 16 in March. We were in the car listening to a song on the radio about a dad that had a gun and told the boy taking his daughter out that he would be there cleaning it till they got home. Larissa laughed and said...."does dad have a gun?"
This picture shows one of the few accidents that Nessa has had that wasn't her fault!
Ty was ordained to a Deacon last Sunday (Dec 28th) by Darin and passed for the first time. He is just too little still! I remember when Travis was so small, he has had a growth spurt the last 6 months. I asked Ty if he was nervous and he said no way!!
On Tuesday we discovered a leak coming from the roof so the kids and I got out (Darin was at work of course!) on the roof and cleared away tons and tons and tons of snow!! I think Phil and Nate jumped off the roof at least 20 times each. Needless to say they didn't get alot of snow cleared. After about 3 hours we called in reinforcements....Nessa's "boy Friends" and they come over and helped her finish. WOW!!! BIG JOB!! SHE HAS THE SUNBURN TO SHOW FOR IT! Now it won't be so difficult when we have the next snow storm. We found the leak and repaired it. Thanks goodness it was an easy fix!
We hope that you are all well and have a super New Year!! Let us know how you are doing!!?
