Well we said we love our Saturdays in January and we had another one full of fun. I went with Bonnie, Char and Jess to the movies and to dinner to celebrate Char's Birthday! We saw Bride Wars and ate at Spaghetti Mama's up at Jordan Commens. We had a good time and good food! While I was off with the girls, Phil took the kids with my family and they went and did some bowling and went to dinner. Hence no pictures of girls night because I had to send the camera with Phil. They had a great time bowling and even Stratton tried it out. Phil ended up being the grand bowler of the night! Were so proud. So thanks to our families for another fun filled Saturday!

Stratton Ear Surgery - Take Two!
Well they say the third time is a charm but in our case we are really hoping that the second time is a charm. Stratton had another ear surgery today. He had tubes put in about a year ago. He has been miserable since. Come to find out a bacteria had gotten in his ear from the tube and had cause his tube to block and a thick sticky puss has been sitting in his ear because it can not get out of the blocked tube. They went in and removed his old set of tubes cleaned out his ear and put a new set of tubes in. He was a champ. The surgery went well and pretty fast. We did have to wait a little bit and he did not like that. All he could say was Mama go. We walked the halls of same day surgery for a while. He was good as long as we were walking. Once they brought him out of surgery he was a little groggy and mad but seemed to calm down when they brought him some apple juice. Papa even paid us a surprise visit. Stratton wanted off of my lap and onto Papa's. We were waiting to be discharged and Stratton was just mad. Nothing would calm him down. They were bringing him toys and juice but nothing would work. Finally I said to the nurse, I think he wants his hospital name tag off. She let me cut it off and then he was fine. It just fits him doesn't it. This name band that shouldn't even phase him but boy he was going to make life miserable until he got it off!! It is a good thing he is so dang cute or we might just have to give him away!! So he did great and we are glad it is over. Now we will just hope that it works and he can finally have a good nights sleep without all that discomfort!!

KID DAY!!
So the kids didn't have school for a few days so we figured we could at least be fun for one of those days! We decided to get ready and take the kids over to Jumpin Jacks to play. They had a good time and ran around and played for hours. We had fun going down the slides and chasing Stratton. After that we came home for a nap and then went and got pizza. The kids finished off the night playing over the Anderson's until 11:00 PM. It just doesn't get much better than that!

"S" is for Saturday, Snow, and Sledding!!
So I just love January Saturdays. December is always so crazy and busy then you hit January and it is like the world just dies. It is kind of a blah month but I do have to say I just love the Saturdays. We usually don't have anything going on so it means we can do whatever we want. Sometimes we just sit in our pj's all day and watch movies or we get ambitious and venture out to do something fun! So after spending the first half of our day in our jammies we decided to see if some of our friends wanted to go sledding. We took the Grovers and the Anderson's up to Hobble Creek for an afternoon of sledding. We had such a good time. The kids had a ball and they were up and down the hill non-stop for hours. We had so much fun racing and seeing who could go the farthest. Evan and Jodi hold the title but not for long. We will beat you! Stratton slept through most of the fun but did wake up long enough to take a trip down the hill. We had a great day and can't wait for the rest of our January Saturdays!
