Ok Ok I am so sorry to all of you. Christmas cards and letters have been a tradition for a few years now and this year we just didn't get to them. I think posting a "Merry Christmas" on our blog is like the lamest thing ever, but it's all you're getting this year. And you don't even get a picture, again I am sorry. I was going to post a video of Kellen singing the 12 Days of Christmas. It was really cute, but of course I can't figure out how to blog a video. So you just get to read. There are a few reasons for the lack of card this year.
1) No New Family Picture
2) We were quite busy (I know everyone is)
3) Scott broke his hand.
Yes, Scott broke his hand a few weeks ago and so could not type up a letter. We all know I like to think I am as funny as Scott, but we all know (including myself) that I am not. So I did not attempt the Whitemarsh letter. However, I could not go without doing something, so here it is.
Scott breaking his hand is probably the most exciting thing anyways and that is not very exciting. He is still able to work, which we are so, so, so thankful for. He broke it doing an adjustment. I guess the correct term would be fractured. It did not completely break or shift the bone, again we are so thankful for that. He is stabelizing it with a brace and taking x-rays every couple weeks to check the progress. It is nice having your own x-ray machine. He didn't have to go anywhere to have them done. The business is doing well. We are able to take care of our family and pay our bills. We did hire a receptionist this year, cutting my time at the office way down.
I am only in the office on Fridays to pay bills and do that boring stuff we don't want to pay anyone else to do. So yes, I am now a PTA mom. I go in with Kellen every Tuesday to help with a math masters game day and I go in Wednesdays to help with Jr. Joggers. Kellen is in Kindergarten but he stays with me and participates with 1st and 2nd graders. I have been going to the gym and have lost some weight. We will see how the holidays treat me. I still enjoy the good food!
Kellen is in Kindergarten and loves it. He is happy everyday after school and still looks forward to going. I know this will not last forever. I am enjoying it while it does. He is very helpful, he will do anything if there is a reward attached. He is very sweet and tender most of the time. He does enjoy making Jakob scream when he can.
Jakob goes to preschool 3 days a week with "iis eee" (Mrs. B). He loves "eeeool" (preschool). He too looks forward to going and gets very mad on the 2 days he doesn't get to go to school and Kellen does. He goes to speech once a week at the "ig ool" (big school) or "kaka ool" (Kellen's school). We have seen a huge imporvement with his confidence and language. He is really trying more. He has more and more to say everyday and now I can't get him to be quiet. I still don't understand it all but he is making an effort!
That is us, if you have been cheking out the blog you have seen our year for the most part. We do hope you all have a Very Merry Christmas, and thank you to those that got around to your letters. We do enjoy them .

hey you! Dont worry about your letter on the blog. I did not get anything out last year and I normally do birth annouoncements and did not get those out for Porter either. Bummer. I also, could not find your address so I could send you our Christmas card and letter. I will have to send it to you after the new year. Can you email me your address.
Hey, blogging a letter is more than I got around to doing! You're a supermom in my book, also in my book- you ARE as funny as Scott. Scott's humor is way overrated in my opinion!! Hope his hand feels better, I didn't even know that happened. Merry Christmas, hope to see you guys next week!
I thought that was funny sister, you're funny, just a different kind of funny! :-) Love you all! hope Scott heals up, and the boyz are sooo freakin cute!!
