Not much going on since the last post, but we are really enjoying the beautiful warm weather. The kids were outside quite a bit yesterday after our day of rain the day before. We went to Ronoake Rapids in the morning for a Wal-Mart outing. The kids all got new DVDs for the trip home. The boys got new socks as well because I don't think they own a pair without a hole in them. Mom took Cobe out later on shopping around here, but the rest of us stayed home. Ryan golfed yesterday and has already left again today to go golf. I am getting ready to go for a walk now before I shower- just getting started for the day (at 10:15). Nice! I'm always so lazy when I'm here.
Brent's girlfriend gets here tonight so we'll get to meet her for the first time. Mom and Dad have met her, but not us. We are staying an extra day just to meet her- that better mean it is serious and amounts to something! haha
It's nice to have plans to look forward to when we get home. Ryan works Monday and Tuesday, then Wednesday we leave for Great Wolf Lodge in Traverse City with the Boeves. We are spending the night there and sort of considering it the boys' birthday presents. Don't think we are going to do parties this year. Cobe's birthday is so soon in January that it is always hard to plan a party so close to Christmas and being gone. So, hopefully they'll appreciate going to the water park instead. I may give in and let Brooks have a party in February since he has never had one before and turning 5 is something special! But we'll see. He isn't the one asking for one... shock!
New Year's Eve we are supposed to go to the Griffins game at the Van Andel with the Tresemers. After the game, they have indoor fireworks and everyone can ice skate until midnight. I am sure we'll skip the ice skating since Ryan will have worked the whole day and will work the next day as well. At least it is a fun family night to look forward to- something to do without having to get a sitter. Glenn got tickets for free so that is a nice perk as well.
What is everyone else doing to ring in 2008?????

Christmas sounded great for you guys. Jealous of the weather - although, all the snow we're getting right now is very pretty. Enjoy your New Years festivities when you get back.
That Griffin's game sounds fun, I've heard it advertised quite a bit! We are gonna just hang out and play Wii I'm sure, same thing we did last year (- the wii), I was not thrilled about it last year, but now it sounds kinda good to just be home, warm & safe with my fam! Have a safe trip home, enjoy the rest of your stay!
You guys always have such fun things to do! We are sitting home for New Year's Eve, John usually works, but for some reason he has this year off! Have a good, safe trip.
We will be home as well. Clemson plays that night and that is always a big thing in our house. Hope the boys' have a great b-day, the trip to the water park sounds fun!! Sorry no wine socks this year for Christmas. I'll be sure to let Ryan know that it's your favorite!
