I got the cushion for the bench done. Cute huh? I think it turned out pretty good. Then, there's a couple pics of Alex running around with the oven mits. Uber cute. Then, Alex this morning in his pjs. The ones Joanne and Jeremy gave him for christmas. I think? Last, Poky. So, this morning kind of sucks. It has to be the worst day for freezing rain. We haven't had bible study in a couple weeks because the first time there was bad weather, then everybody was sick, and now we're not going again today because of the freezing rain. Normally I wouldn't mind, but I'm actually really in to this study. We've been studying Esther and I really like it. It's interesting. And, I feel like I actually have decent answers on my homework. Nathan took my car this morning cause his was so frozen over. That's fine though cause I don't think I would go anywhere anyway. Oh, and this is the morning mom and dad fly out to Seattle. They were supposed to fly out early this morning and I'm guessing their flight was delayed or cancelled. I tried calling them but they aren't answering their phone. They're probably really frustrated. It's hard to believe that just a couple days ago it was like fifty degrees and sunny and now it's like winter again. So sick of winter and all the freezing rain and snow. I don't know if I could live in Wisconsin or one of those uber cold wintery states. So, has everybody got their taxes done? We got ours done yesterday. Yeah! That's always a big weight off your shoulders and we're getting a nice return this year. Not to mention the added money that everyone's getting back in like May or so. We're so bad. We've already decided what we're going to spend our money on. First off, countertops for the kitchen. Woohoo! Then, a trip out to Cali before Alex turns two and we have to start paying for him. Maybe a cruise too. We'll see. And, Nathan wants to buy me a gun. That's almost more of something for him. Haha! So, ya, I was thinking we would put it towards some of our debt we have but this will be more fun. We've been working really hard on paying off our debt so in a way we kind of deserve to spend it on ourselves. Right? Nathan's been training in their jet all week and he's already done a flight in it out to Pheonix. I get pretty excited for him just cause I know how much it means to him. It looks like he and the other guy are the only ones that will be flying in it. He keeps telling me that after he takes his checkride in the jet that the crazy hours he's been working will get better. So, lets hope so. He's been gone like everyday this week till seven or later except for yesterday because we had this appointment to do our taxes. I'm hoping he won't be gone super late tonight. I miss him when he's gone so much. At least they have four pilots now and after he takes his checkride he should be home more than before. Hopefully. Okay, I'm going to say this on my blog because posting stuff on Joys doesn't seem to do anything. You need to post some more scrapbook pages or pictures or something. It's been too long. I need my fix.

Did you ever get ahold of the parents? Dude, that wouldn't be cool for them if they had to wait around all day for their flight. Cute pictures! Man, you must have whipped up that cushion pretty fast, because wasn't it just the other day that you were talking about making it? Speedy. It looks nice. Funny e-mails you sent today. Word. And ya, Joy, what have you been up to?

Jenny, a couple of things. You need to send me those recipes and also one or two of your favorite wedding pics and maybe one of the whole family at your wedding too in case I decide to put those up as well. Thanks!!!

Ya, the cushion was a lot easier than I thought it would be. I'm glad it turned out good. I just talked to my mom a couple hours ago and they made it up there. I guess they drove up the night before and stayed in a hotel right by the airport. They almost missed their connecting flight,but at least they made it. Mom says they're having an awesome time out there.
