Christmas with Kelly and the kids!

Last night we had Christmas with the Strata family and had a great night. Everytime we get together it is an adventure:) Thanks Kelly for the great gifts and coming down to see us! We love you guys very much!

Ist Rodeo trip this season!

Well as all of you know we love going to the Rodeo and last Saturday was a very exciting one to say the least. During one of the breaks the little "cowboys" can get signed up to ride a sheep and Jacks has been wanting to do this for two years--but my girlfriend's dad said he had to be 3 to ride a sheep--well Jacks has a very good memory so now that he is 3 he knows he can ride. So last Saturday he rode for the very first time and he did GREAT!!! Another first was Gavin joining us at the Rodeo and he decided that he wanted to participate in the stick horse race and guess what he WON! It was so cute--he recieved a trophy and a t-shirt. I do want to say a big thank you to my girlfriend Kristin's boyfriend Adam for helping the boys with their activities--they love you!
