Sunday--February 24

Well, hello to all of our family out there. Is everyone watching the Oscars? Dad has it on while he is working at the kitchen table. How is everybody this last week of February? We are really enjoying that it is still light out at 5:00. Rainy day, but better than snow and cold.
Dad actually went golfing Saturday and played 9 holes. So Keith, you are not the only one able to play golf in February! Other than that, we are busy working on tax returns. By the way, I worked Saturday while dad played golf. But he had stayed up 'til two in the morning working, so I really think it was a good break for him.

So, Amber, how is college this semester? We really hope you get a job up here this summer. We would love to have you with us for some time. I always forget you are still not living at home--I always picture you there.

We are getting excited for the arrival of midnight girl (Sophie Lewis) this Friday, and Jen and then Ryan and Charlotte!! Which, by the way, for those of you who we haven't talked to, Natalie and Craig had a baby boy on Feb. 21. They barely made it to the hospital in time, with Craig speeding the whole way to the hospital. Then fifteen minutes, Joseph Curt Acton was born. He is a beautiful baby and Natalie is feeling much, much better.

Last week, Bullet got into the house with a bird, and then proceeded to eat it on the basement stair landing. I think Natalie let him in, and didn't notice the bird. When we got home there were feathers everywhere on the stairs, and lots of bird seed!! So Bullet got removed to the outside for several days. These pets!!

Hope you all have a wonderful week, and that you take good care of each other all the time!! Love to you all. Mom

Our "midnight girl" is counting the days until she gets to go to Gramma's house - this morning it is down to 2. She is very excited. Our big kids are excited for her to go as well, but they have both asked at different time if they could come, too. Bummer they have school next week! Brenna is in the middle of softball tryouts right now and Ryan is waiting for baseball to start up again. We have had a couple of great days of spring weather lately and are loving it!
