FACEBOOK

I actually have had a lot going on lately, but you can't tell by my lack of blogging. I seem to be too involved with my facebook addiction. This past week has been pretty eventful. Here's a very quick recap. Monday was Chinese New Year and The Hills invited us over to celebrate in their new family traditions. The food was yummy and she decorated so cute. Wednesday our nephews had their pinewood derby race for scouts and we enjoyed cheering them on. I had a week long ride review with my supervisor and despite all the anxiety, did really well. I wont bore you with the details. This weekend is the Super Bowl and also my dad's birthday so we are headed to Surprise to celebrate. We bought Cardinals tee-shirts to support the home team, somehow we feel as though we're helping the cause. Plus, Rex got an extra day at work to wear jeans by sporting the cardinals on his shirt, so even if they dont win its ok!!

Our neice's blessing.

Baby Janae was blessed this Sunday. Isn't she gorgeous? I couldn't be a prouder aunt. It was so wonderful to witness and be present for. We had many relatives travel from afar and from across town to be there. And it was so nice to visit with everyone afterwards. We are so grateful to be blessed with such a wonderful family. This was truly a special day.You can see Rex is just loving being an uncle.

Zoo trip!

Tim and Cindy invited us to a wonderful day at the zoo today. It was in the 70's and couldn't have been a more perfect day to go. Way to hit the new year up with some excerise as well. We had such a great time and are so grateful to have the Hill family in our life and apart of our family. I am sure Cindy will eventually if not already post a lot of the pics on her blog, so here are a few of Rex loving being around his nephews. They just can't get enough of each other!!!

Yeah..its a New Year!!

Bye, bye 2008. We rang in the new year at Tim and Cindy's house with homemade tamales, salsa, and tacos. I got to play the boys new Nintendo Wii system. Let me just say SUPER FUN!! Later, we watched a bizarre movie as we fought to stay awake to see the clock strike 12. Chalk that up to all of us recovering from an awful cold and a long day of work prior. So I have a lot of resolutions to actually live up to this year. Lets start with these few things, but know the list is continually being added to and much too long/private to add here.

1. Lay off the regular Coke... enough said
2. Read scriptures with as much passion and devotion as the Twilight series:)
3. Work my way out of debt...american dream right? There goes my own Wii system. :(
