I know I have been horrible but such is life some times. So, as you all know, we went to Alaska for Christmas. It was absolutely wonderful. The kids had a ton of fun and often talk about everyone and everything we did. "Uncle Scott" gets top billing from Katelyn ( she looks for you everywhere). The kids loved going on the snow machines and going sledding. Katelyn loved that she got to get pulled up and down the hill and just enjoy the ride. Jonathan got more adventurous and was trying to go to the top of the hill but his mom was not brave enough for that. Ryan and I escaped to Hatcher's Pass for a night and it was great. If you want to do a kind of camping experience you should go up there for a night (no running water but decent place for a night or two). We were planning to go cross country skiing in the morning but ended up sleeping in untill 10:30 since we did not have our three little alarm clocks to wake us. Thanks mom and dad for the escape.

Since we got back we have been trying to get back in the swing of things. We spent a day down at the beach with Shannon and her family. The kids had a ton of time digging for hours and splashing in the waves even though we did not bring water clothes (I did not plan for it to actualy be that nice of a day).

Ryan is doing his last semester of school which is cause for rejoicing. Don't ask where we will be after that because we really do not know. Time shall tell. The kids are doing great and all is well here. I love you all and will post some pictures sometime soon hopefully.
