Happy New Year

We rang in the new year at 10 pm with the New Yorkers on CNN. We let Brett stay up late for the count down but none of us could make it up for midnight. However our neighbors put off a pretty big illegal fireworks display from about 1130-100 in the morning so Justin and I were up for midnight anyhow. Brett was sound sleep at 1015 and slept through the whole thing. Brett banged on a pot and pan and gave everyone hugs including the dog. It was a very nice New Year.

Also on New Years Eve Justin found another deal he just couldn't pass up. After 12 years of marriage he still surprises me sometimes. He has been on a kick to find an old jeep to fix up for a project. On Christmas weekend he sold our flat bed trailer to pay for a jeep and on New Years Eve he found the one he couldn't pass up on KSL. He and brett made an impromptu trip to Salem, Ut to check it out. Luckily it had a tow hitch on it and they drug it home. Brett was such a trooper for the whole ride. Here are some pictures from the ad that was on KSL. Once we have it cleaned up a bit I will get some better pictures. It runs fine but needs some TLC. It has cracking paint on the front of it and the part that bugs me the most is that I don't think anyone has cleaned it in 10 years. The first purchase we made for he jeep was an air freshener. Today hopefully Justin will have some time to go out there with some Clorox and it will be ready to go. Justin wants to have it to drive to campus and then fix it up so in the summer we can go out on rides in the mountains with the top off with the whole family. He has his harley for sale as well right now because he just isn't using it and says he feels bad about being away from the family. What a good husband! Its probably just not the best time to sale it as he hasnt gotten any calls.




On New Years Day we left the house to go and get dog food and milk. 4 hours later we finally made it home. Justin ended up having to work an hour so Brett and I drew on marker boards up at weber, went to Luke's to deliver his Christmas present (And Thank you for everything luke- Brett loves his Black Power Ranger!!!). Right by Luke's house was a Chuck a Rama we were starving and had missed lunch unknowingly so we went there. It was packed. We got there at 330 and paid for lunch but they started dinner at 4. I must say all my thoughts of Chuck a rama are gone. we ate the best food. Maybe its that I Was extra hungry or the fact that I am pregnant but YUMMY!!!! I had carved turkey, roastbeef and fried shrimp but the best was the peach cobbler. It was a great meal to start 2010 off with. After we ate we finally got dog food and milk.

As far as brett goes we have not had any other episodes like had last week at school. Hoping its just a one time crazy thing that happened but we have been stuffing him full of fruits and veggies just to be safe.
