Man Dance

Jake's upset I'm putting this on here, but I had to. This was at our little New Year's party we had at my parent's house. I learned a few things that night:

1. Jake pretty much has no sense of rhythm. We're gonna work on that.

2. Dance Dance Revolution gives you a serious workout. Now I understand how people lose 50 lbs. doing it.

3. My brother is the Master Dancer. Don't tell him I said that, his ego will grow three sizes too big. But seriously, what's up with that?! He beat me.

4. The background dancers are amazing. My mom's gonna learn a couple of the dances and put on a talent show. That will be the highlight of my life!!

P.S. Don't worry, Jake's not really upset. He acts like he doesn't want me to put this on, but secretly hopes he'll become a YouTube sensation. Feel free to tease.

Our Happy Holidays

My blogging laziness is getting the best of me right now, but I do like to document what I can, and prefer to let the pictures do the talking. Here's what our holidays have consisted of, and I'm even too lazy to put them in order. We had a wonderful, wonderful holiday season though and hope you all did too. :)

New Beginnings

I know I've been horrible at blogging lately, but these last couple months have been jam packed with all sorts of crazy stuff. I'm too lazy to blog about everything, so I'll just do the recent highlights. I'll start by talking about our sweet sister-in-law, Brette. She's pretty much amazing. She and Kade had been married for 4 months when she was diagnosed with leukemia for the second time. Yup, second. Has she let it affect her? Hardly. She is totally awesome and such an amazing example, as is Kade. So since August, she has been through several hefty chemo regimens. Around the first of December her brother came home from his mission to be her perfect match bone marrow donor. Then for the week before the transplant she underwent 3 more days of chemo plus 3 days of radiation, had one day of rest, then had the bone marrow transplant on Dec. 23rd. ALL while having an incredibly amazing attitude!! We have been blessed to have Brette and Kade as such wonderful examples of faith, strength, and rock solid love! It's like the whole thing doesn't even phase them. Seriously awesome. We're sure grateful she's got this new beginning.
