2009

I can't believe that it is a new year.

I have had a great break with the family. It is time to start getting back to our routine. We all seem to be missing our friends.

This time of year is always a time when we look back and can't believe what we have done. It has been a great year, and I look forward to having another great year with friends and family.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!

Christmas 2008

It was another great Christmas!!

Thanksgiving 2008

Pictures speak a thousand words.








It looks like the Brethauer Thanksgiving was a lot of fun!

Let it Snow!!

Tiffany built her first snowman tonight. I helped without a coat, so if I'm ill, my fault!

She actually built two. As we waited to pick up the boys from work we built a snowman in front of the Mail Room Service Center. (That was free advertising!) No pics of that one.

Saturday 10:41pm

Thats really all I needed to say, is the time.

I'm having a girls night at my house. It is going well, I have not laughed this much in a long time.
Emily is playing wii soccer and see make some vary cute nosies. I just had to share. I will have to fill you all in when the weekend is over. (I don't think I will be getting much sleep.)

Busy Saturday

Saturday was a busy day. I started off early with little sleep. I had to be at Walmart for some good sales. Ya know like paper towels and dog food. The lines were huge so it took me the better part of the morning to get that done.

Then we went to see Tommy's Hockey team in action at 10:00am. The game had just started when we arrived so we had not missed much. Tommy's team lost 5 to 3, but it was a great game.
Austin was fun to sit with. He tells me he is having a baby, it's in his mommy's belly right now. (Just to let you all know, in case you missed that.)

Then to the show. It was Joe and Dawn, Amy and Dennis and Mike and I, off to see Fireproof.
It was a good movie. Not sure any of the men wanted to be there, but when it was all said and done I think all of us learned something about ourselves. We should all try The Love Dare even if we have a strong marriage.

After running late at the show, we needed to pick up the kids. Which were all at my house (Taylor, Chris, Tiffany, Lauren, Emily, Tommy, Austin, Jessica and Steve showed up at some point.). I made it clear to my great group before we went to the show, that the little ones did not need to hear or see bad things.
Well they all bombed at that one. Tommy tells me Steve came over and kicked Taylor's butt in a wrestling match. Emily tells me that Chris says bad words.
They all had fun, but I don't know if any of my friends trust my house as the childcare place.

Well off to dinner.

We all went to Genjis. The Bojo's left second and were the last to arrive. Come to find out with the movie running late we have put Emily late for a dance team practice. So her and Dennis will not be able to stay and eat. POOR EMILY!
Dennis was on Day one of the Love Dare so he did not say anything negative, and just took Emily to practice. What a good guy!
Mike, Tiffany and I had never been to Genjis before so it was a fun experience for use. Our cook played a prank on Tiffany, he sprayed her with fake soy sauce. She jumped so high, it was great to see her laugh.

It was nice to get out with such a great group.
Sorry no pictures I'm slacking.
