Sick

So, I have had a few days off.... So, what happens...... I get strep throat. Tiffany hates it when I have multiple days off because that is when I get sick. I did go see the Doctor and he gave my a Z pack so I am feeling better today. Still a little sore. Last night was the first night I slept in bed all week.
I got this cool new phone that shoots nice video's. Here is a video of all the kids that I took yesterday. Enjoy!!!

Happy New Year Football!!!

Today is the day before the Utes play in the Sugar Bowl. College Football is so different here then in Utah. Both in Iowa and Nebraska it is life and death. Luckily both the Hawkeyes of Iowa and Nebraska CornHuskers won their bowl games. It has been nice to remind all of them that the Utes are one of the Only undefeated teams left in the country. Tomorrow is the day, the game is on National TV so it is important for the Utes to make a good showing.

Christmas Eve

The kids are very excited for Christmas this year. I am excited to see their faces as they open the presents and have a good time.
I got my present of a new cell phone this week. I got the new Blackberry Storm. It is sweet. It does everything i need a computer to do in a small package. My email was down for 2 days because of the switch to a Blackberry and I was in physical pain because I didn't have a phone to check everything on. I love the Internet access is html on the Blackberry. It is very cool. Part of the phone is an application to help you manage your facebook account. Looks like I will soon be on facebook, we'll see. Have a merry Christmas and a happy new year everyone!!!!

It is almost Christmas!!!!

I need to get back into my blogging groove. We are slowly getting into a routine here in Omaha. I love my job and work with some great people. Our ward is good too. Tiff is the activities committee chair and I am about to get a calling this next week.
It is cold here. It was 60 degrees about 10 days ago and then the next day it snowed and hasn't been above 30 degrees since. we had an ice storm last Thursday. There is an inch of ice on everything. It is kind of crazy.
We went out and bought new front room furniture tonight. There is a brown leather couch and love seat. We will find a bright chair and pillows to offset the couch and give the room a little color. The kids are getting huge. Caiden just got up on all 4's like he was about to crawl. It's coming soon. Colton is spelling and adding and reading small books. Cali is as cute as ever, she plays so good and loves her little brother. She will start preschool in January.
Have a Merry Christmas!!!!!

I hope you enjoy these pictures. We will post more soon. The kids are getting so big!!!!

OMAHA- Not half bad!

This is my first time updating our blog, (who am I kidding, Cliff's blog.) Any time you see a family blog talking about basketball shoes followed by a link you know it is no family blog.
We finally made it to Omaha, NE. We bought a new home and everyone asks me if it so great being back in a new house. After days of painting the frontroom so that it matched everything we own, paying for and picking out blinds and curtains, dreading landscaping I tell everybody, " yes I love owning a new house!" At least everything that is damaged I know we took a part in it. The one thing I'm having trouble with is all the "D" stairs, (we now own a multi-level.) We did smart up a couple weeks in and put a basket for things that need to go upstairs. By the way that baskets is always overflowing.
Our ward seems nice and big. There are a lot of couples in our ward our age with kids and stuff and most of them are new to the area or leaving with the military soon. I already got a calling, Ward Activity Director. Don't be jealous the title makes it sound more glamorous than it really is. Cliff told his mom he's seeing how long he can go without a calling since our last ward had him doing Executive Secretary and Elders Quorum President at the same time. It seems that I must learn best by baptism by fire since the Christmas party is in a couple weeks and everyone is expecting something fabulous, we'll see.
I was going to keep going but Cliff thinks your all bored by now so I will have to update this another day.

Crazy Time!!!!

We are crazily packing and getting everything ready to move on the 26th. We close on the Sioux City house on September 24th. We are renting the place back for the rest of the month. That will give us the time to clean the house and make sure everything is out of it. We close in Omaha at 9am on the 26th. We are packing most of our stuff into a uhaul on the 25th and then spending the night in a hotel in Omaha. We will be unloading at our new place all day Friday. I am excited to get this over with. I am in a car 3 hours a day. i am done by the time I get home so it makes it tough to accomplish stuff. We are excited to be near a temple and the church house is over 5 minutes away instead of 20. I need to call the bishop and see if he wants to help us move in on the 26th. Hope so!!!
