Its been a while since I was last able to post and a lot has happened.
Our boys just both turned a year older. We had a joint party for a whole gang of people that have birthdays together (or within a couple weeks of each other) on Saturday (Valentines Day). The party was for Austin, Nathan, Mark, Jesse, and Eli. It was Elis year to pick the cake so they got Thomas the train :D - cake is cake right?-
Austin is 11 now and Nathan is 14... and believe me the gray is showing "at least on Ben anyways"
The boys got remote control cars that can drive on land and water... should be a riot at mans camp.

I'm sure everyone is concerned about job security right now... I just want to let you know that Ben and I are pretty safe. The state has talked of a reduction in force but doing this with attrition or not replacing those who retire. They have also talked of possible furloughs but when talking to others in my agency I don't see this happening to my Department or Bens.

Recently we bought a new computer as our old one went ZAP... and we ended up returning that to COSTCO due to Windows Vista being as impossible as it has been advertised. A few months back, my boss gave me an old one she had, and it seems to be working fine for us now... So with our extra money that we were going to use for our computer we got ourselves a Wii. We are super excited to bring it up on the 4th of July and play some new, fun games!!!

Now I have to rant for a minute about the weather... yesterday we got 18" of snow, we all have been sick since Saturday night, one doctor says its the Flu one said its probably Bronchitis (personally I think they are all quacks). So being that neither one of us could really get out there and shovel a foot and half of snow, we hired a guy from ksl.com. Ben was really honest with him on the phone about the size of our driveway and the depth of the snow and he quoted us $35 (what a deal!!) He came out and had it all done in less than an hour... didnt try to raise the price or do a half ass job, he even left us with a 5 gallon bucket of ice melt. So for all my Ogden followers please give him a call if you need snow removal, he even does roof removals... call codee 801-648-5632
