Ever's rocket

For Ever's 7th birthday he got a rocket kit. I know that was forever ago! Well we finally put it together and launched it. Ever had a blast and so did George. It is a reusable rocket so we can by more charges for it and launch it again. so that is the plan. In the spring the boys plan to do this again. I however am not holding my breath, it took 3 years to launch this one, so a relaunch could take a while! Oh sorry no pictures of the auctual take off I was trying to take pictures and take video of the event.

These are some pictures we took just before Christmas..

The kids love climbing in trees! Mostly they love playing outside in Decmeber with no jackets! This was our first Christmas in San Antonio and it was an enjoyable one.

Back to school 2010

Well another school year has started!! My kids sure are growing up. This year Keyser is in 5th grade, he is going to a new school for just 5th and 6th grade. It is kind of Jr. High style, he goes to diffrent classes but the whole class stays together. He has to get up pretty early for school, he has to be on the bus at 6:30am!
Ever is in 3rd grade this year! Talia is in 1st grade. They both still go to the same school and like it very much.

Halloween

Ok so i wasn't really in to halloween this year and Keyser has the flu so the pictures suck and i just didn't put forth much effort. On top of that it was 17 degrees out side luckly no snow, but it was just an off year. So the boys wore the same old costumes and the girl got a new one. The kids had fun carving pumpkins and i made a ton of food. Hopefully next year will be better and hopfully it will not be as cold.

she is freezing!

Trip to to North Pole Alaska

Recently I had a chance to go up to Ft. Wainwright and Eielson AFB. I was there for work, I was training a few people. I was gone for a whole week! So near these 2 bases is a city called North Pole. I stayed at the North Pole hotel and even went to Santa's house and saw his reindeer. While the trip was frustrating and exhausting and I missed the fam super much I was greatful for the opportunity.
