I thought I better update the blog and catch everyone up on all the changes going on in our lives. Blair graduated from Lineman College in August. He came home and worked home for about 6 weeks and then got him a groundsman job in Utah. In the meantime he interviewed for an apprentice lineman position with The Mountain States JATC. He interviewed on a tuesday was called thursday saying that he received a position and to report to a job starting Monday.......in Colorado. So thats where Blair has been for the past few months. We miss him terribly but was so excited to have him come home for a week and a half over Christmas.
The kids had lots of fun wrestling with dad. He was even a good dad and got them all dressed up in their winter gear and took them outside to enjoy the snow. He even pulled them around on the sled. Mom's too big of a wimp most of the time to go outside during the winter. I'm trying to take a lesson from Blair and take my kids outside more to enjoy the winter weather. Just a side note. Cassidy has now developed quite the personality and insists on wearing certain things. So as you can see in the pictures she has a skirt on over her pants. Not my doing but her own stubborness. I'm sure a lot of you with girls of your own understand the "I want to wear what I want to wear phase."

We enjoyed lots of time with family during the Christmas break both blair's and mine. It was fun to watch the kids open gifts this year. They opened one gift and wanted to play with that so you couldn't hardly pry them away to finish their other gifts. It was still fun. We sent Blair back to Colorado on Jan. 3rd. It was hard to say goodbye but hopefully we will be out with Blair in just a few months and be a family again. I hope all of you had a good holiday season!

How long is this going to last? What part of CO? We lived just outside of Denver for a couple of years and loved it. I understand how you feel-- Blaine was working out of town for 4 months. It is so nice to have him home. Hopefully it lasts.
