Just a quick note

Hi everyone,

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas season.  We sure did!! We were blessed enough to be able to to to McCall with my family, and spent a few days with Jed's family in Park Valley before and after.  We went snowmobiling, snowboarding, did a little shopping, lots of cooking and baking, played games and watched movies.  It was absolutely wonderful and I wished it lasted a month.  We were spoiled with wonderful and thoughtful gifts.  It was absolutely perfect.

Well, anytime at home is perfect.  We didn't get to spend too much time in Parma on the Ranch and I didn't see a few of my revlatives and their families that I wanted to, so Blaikley and I are back again! :) And it's great!

My brother Scott had a wrestling tournament in Bulh, Idaho this past weekend and afterwards, my mom and dad came and spent Saturday night at our house.  Jed had to work both Saturday and Sunday,  just feeding and taking care of animals morning and afternoon.  We left after he got home from the morning shift Sunday.  We traveled the slightly longer way and went through Pocatello, but that was perfect because dad treated us to lunch at Sizzler.  After that we trucked it on home. Blaikley was such a trooper in the car! As usual, but sometimes you never know how the ittle toddlers will act, but she was wonderful! My brother Robert has gracisouly offered his bed to Blaikley and I and he is sleeping on the couch.  I truly have the best siblings.  I love how we all truly love each other so much!  I know it wasn't always like this, but we all get along well and it makes coming home just that much better. 

Mom had to go into the office for a bit today, so Blaikley and I are going to surprise her with srubbing the bathrooms and having dinner ready when everyone gets home.  

I do need to apoloize for ignoring my blog all the time.  If you follow me on Facebook, though, you'll get pictures updated the most frequesntly.  

However, I can't leave off the best blessing I have..... my husband.  It was his idea to have me come back home for a week and spend this time with my family.  He knows how homesick I get.  I try not to complain too much, but it must show how much I wanted more time with my family and he helped me arrange it all!  He is so wonderful!! He truly wants me to be home and enjoy my family as much as I can! Poor guy is home all alone in a cold house and I didn't get as many dinners put in the freezer as I intended, but lets be honest, the guy is a way better cook than I am!!

Okay, I need to get started on things around here.  Maybe I can keep the blog up for the week I'm here :)

Much Love!
