Ketchup

Besides being Jana's favorite food, it is what I am doing with the blog.

A lot has happened since the last post way back in July of 2010.

When we last left you Jacob had just turned 6! Man he's getting old, he will soon be you guessed it 7.

Jeff had a birthday in August and turned another year older.

Jeff and Reva celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary by spending a weekend in Brainerd, MN to attend one of Jeff's co-workers wedding, how ironic.

Jacob started 1st grade in September and is reading like a madman, he just recently got his first Library card.

Isaiah turned 2 in October and has fully entrenched himself in the terrible 2's.

Reva had a birthday too in October she turned????

There was Christmas which was wonderful, New Year's also was quite fun.

We are now enjoying the long part of winter waiting for Spring to come.

Enjoying the snowstorms that somehow always seem to happen over the weekend this winter.

We are looking forward to Chloe's 5th birthday the end of March, hard to believe she is turning 5 already!

The anticipation of Spring is really beginning to set in, Jake has already told me he wants to play catch on the FIRST day of Spring.

We look forward to warm weather, grass, playing outside without jackets, and eating on the deck.

Hope everyone is making the best of Winter, thankfully Spring is just around the corner.

Jacob's 6th Birthday

Jacob turned 6 this year on June 27th!

Hard to believe he is that old already.

Makes Mom and Dad feel real old.

Just one of the many joys he brings to us!

We are blessed to have him and love him more each day!

Memorial Day Weekend 2010

Memorial Day Weekend was such a success last year why not make it a tradition right?
