Little Old Man Dance

Allow me to set the scene for this video.....

When Dustin was younger, my Grandma and her friends called him "Little Floyd". When I asked her why she called him that, she said it was because he reminded her of an old man. At the time, I didn't really see it. But now, every once in awhile I see what she meant. Sometimes Tater does or says something that is way beyond his years. Mainly I see it in his posture and actions. His newest "old man" thing is his dance. He looks like a little old man trying to get his groove on:) It's pretty funny, see for yourself.....

All I can say, is that I definitely see dance lessons in this boys future!!!

Happy New Year

It's hard to believe that another has gone by. 2008 was a good year for us, hopefully 2009 will be just as good if not more so. After the hustle & bustle of Christmas died down, we were all starting to go a little stir crazy. The best remedy for that?!?.... A road trip! Matt was helping with a rodeo just outside of Fort Collins, so the kids and I decided to go visit with Nana and Uncle Ryan. We had a nice little get away, we left on Wednesday and were back on Sunday. I drove over to Fort Collins on Thursday and picked up Matt so he was able to spend the long weekend with us. With the new year came a new discovery.... the Wii!!!



I'm not a big fan of video games, but this was too much fun. Even Riley Jo got into the games. In fact, she kicked everyones butt at bowling.



Matthew and Tater found the boxing game. It was so funny to watch them box it out with each other, but not really hitting anything.

And of course there was the dirt track racing game. That one was hard. Matthew got hooked on the Cabela's Extreme Hunting game. I definitely see one of these dandy machines in our future!!!

Merry Christmas!!!

It's taken me awhile to get some new photos on here, but here they are. We had a nice quiet Christmas. We were planning on doing dinner with some friends, but shortly after we got there, Tater got sick, so home we came. We fixed breakfast burritos, watched movies and played with new toys. Overall, a very nice and relaxed day.




Riley Jo managed to get a few more pigs. One stuffed and one porcelain figurine.

Santa did pretty well this year. Tater got a bunch of hunting/shooting stuff. Now he seems to think that he's ready for his own .22. Riley Jo got an easy bake oven but apparently his elves can not make light bulbs (Thanks Uncle Harvey!!!) because the oven was missing one. 3 days after Christmas we finally made a feast of baked goods.

Who can resist a cute boy in a union suit?!?

Ahh... yet another nerf gun to add to his artillery!!!
