Its been awhile

HI Everyone! Its been awhile. Not alot going on here with us. Im glad to be home this weekend. We are just going to take it easy and decorate for Christmas. I also need to finish some Christmas shopping, not too much left to do! My biggest struggle is trying to figure out something for the boys. They really want the Nintendo Wii, and at first I said "no way" but now that I have thought about it a little and saw Hunter play it at Walmart, it looks pretty cool and I think they would have a blast with it. Now the challenge is finding one. Kris went to Walmart yesterday at 8:30 because thats when they said their shipment comes in (and the is no guarentee that there are any Wii's on the shipment) and there were already a few people in line waiting for a Wii. The shipment was delayed until 10:30 so he went back then and there was a line of about 50 people. So he didnt stay, because they only get 4-6 on a shipment. Ive looked at Ebay and Craiglist but those both scare me. Im afraid of getting scammed. Not to mention, they charge alot more. So now Im just trying to figure out a plan B. The kids arent much help. The only things Hunter says he wants are and ipod, Wii and a light saber. So I guess Kris and I will discuss it more and figure something out.

Hunter started basketball this week. He had alot of fun. I think there were about 12 kids on his team. They are all 2nd and 3rd graders from his school. I believe his games start in January. Its should be fun though. When we were leaving basketball practice the other night, Parker my accident waiting happen child tripped over the cement parking things and his face is all scrapped up. He got 2 scrapes on his forhead, one on his nose, and one on his cheek. So I guess we wont go see Santa this weekend. Poor thing!

Thats about all I have for now, we will be back in Spokane for Christmas! Whoo Hoo! Let just hope the roads are OK. When we drove home last weekend, the roads werent so good and it made for a long stressful drive!
