Kids being kids!




Anissa and Brian try their spiderman legs up the walls!

Brian learned about jousting in his history lesson so he had to try it out. His stick pony is the jousting stick and the ball is his horse.


Brian and his friend, Cameron, riding in the field in front of our house.



Anissa and her friend, Emma, taking a picture break.

Anissa and Brian finally got one of their rooms clean enough to pull out the train that is suppossed to go around the Christmas tree. The reason it is not around the Christmas Tree is because we have a very curious one year old lab!!

Bear is very curious, but Anissa can teach him to do anything. She is in 4-H obedience, showmanship and agility with him. Below you can see some of his agility training that he thinks he can do anywhere in the house. It's a good thing he is so cute!!

They also love their legos. This is a house that both kids worked on for an entire afternoon without arguing!


Anissa built this and calls it the "Drag Racer"






This is the only picture I could snag of the two goofballs from Christmas. I actually only took it about three days ago. On Christmas Day, they opened their presents so fast I didn't have time to find my camera. Between Santa and the family, Anissa and Brian got everything they wanted!

Christmas was a huge success as always. The kids are growing up fast. Here are their school pictures. Anissa is in 4th grade and Brian is in the 2nd grade. We have been homeschooling this year and it is the greatest! We all love the freedom and flexibility.
Anissa is in Girl Scouts and 4-H. Brian is in 4-H. We will be starting gymnastics soon also. Eventhough we are at home for school, they still see their friends all the time and amazingly they are steadily making new friends.
Now if it would only stop snowing life would be a bit easier. Depending on where you look, we have anywhere from 2 feet to 4 feet of snow! I am so glad we got a snow blower this year. Shoveling, just really stinks!!
I hope to have more pictures to post soon!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!
