Back in Gymnastics!

So Wylie started Gymnastics a year ago in January and both Gunnar and Wylie took classes over the summer, then when Fall came around they took a break (mainly because I had to coach). Gunnar and Wylie have both been asking if they can go back to Mr. Casey's class, which is in Chanute (30 miles away). I have to admit I looked around at other studio's for something closer, but it boiled down to the fact that its a really good place to take the kids, you will see how cool the place is on the video. Gunnar and Wylie love the trampolines and they get to jump for 30 minutes each class. So they are now back at "The Launching Pad" and I even got them in the same class, which Gunnar wasn't to sure about at first, but doesn't mind now. Last class I took some video clips on my camera and made it into one movie, which is part of the reason why it took me so long to post...plus I couldn't figure out how to get it onto the blog. Anyway, here is the "movie"(it only last a couple of minutes).

It's 2009! Were Back to Work!

Not much tell right now. We had a nice visit at my Mom's in Coldwater, which I posted a few pictures of the kids playing out in the pasture. Josh had a lot of fun watching Gunnar interact with the horses. Gunnar would crouch down amongst all five horses and wait till one would come up to him, so that he could pet him. From Coldwater we drove on to Augusta and stayed at my Dad's house. I got to play pitch with my brothers and also see my step-grandma. Gunnar and Wylie always have a good time at Papaw Tony's, but they were pretty excited for New Years Eve, mainly because they get to stay in a hotel room, swim, and play with their cousins. After Dad's we went on to El Dorado, where the New Years Eve Party was held at the Holiday Inn...Gunka Joe met us there and shared a room. This is our second year spending New Years with Dustin and Randi and we had a great time (we always have a good time hanging out with them). I posted a picture of the "Rock Band" that was played most of the evening. Christina is playing the drums, Brad on base, Dustin singing, and Josh is playing the guitar, it was really pretty fun to watch. they rarely got booed off the stage.

When you gotta go you gotta go! I caught Gunnar urinating on top of the hill out in the middle of the pasture at my mom's house. I took this picture probably 100 yards away. I thought it was kind of funny!


Wylie ended up joining Gunnar up on the hill. They also had a good time going to feed the cattle with Delmar that morning.

New Year's Eve Rock Band! Looking back on 2008 I had a good year and I am looking forward to what 2009 brings. I hope all who reads this has a great year!
