Christmas 2008

The Conrad kids decided they wanted new bedrooms for Christmas..... They all helped paint each others rooms.....
Hudson's room was the last one painted....WHAT A MESS

We had to get rid of all of the old dressers, chests, etc....



Here is Sidney's room, it used to be lime green....


She got a huge bean bag chair that keeps getting bigger by the minuet....





They all 3 got to pick out their bedspreads and that was their Christmas present from Grandpa Dick and Grandma Shirley.......





Here is Jordan's room....a couple of days ago we went to hobby lobby and made our own magnet boards......





Jordan's room used to be bright orange....she also go a huge bean bag chair.....







They both got the same furniture just different pieces so they can trade if they want to....









Hudson wanted a PS3 so we just painted his room, shelf and beds....








Tryin' out the new drums.......











Oh, did I mention they all got a new kitten, his name is peety............











We all just love him, except for Chloe (0ur other cat) they just hiss at each other.
All in all we had a great Christmas, it was a lot of hard work but well worth it. Most of you will find that I played a little to much with Kimmie and Tami then never got caught up and had to start in painting.....oh and drive to Ft. Collins for a work meeting and work some at the showroom.........because your Christmas cards just got mailed on the 24th. We love all the cards and well wishes from everyone. We are thankful for all we have. The kid's are excited to go spend their Christmas money from Nana and Grandad.
They look forward to getting stuff that they pick out....(I am sure I will be shopping tomorrow if you call). We are so blessed to have such great friends and family. We hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a wonderfull New Year!

Winter Photos

For our family photo we went to Garden of the Gods. A beautiful park of natural rocks, all shapes and sizes. It was cold and I heard all about it! My kids had a snow day so no school.....perfect time for pictures! Sidney goes to Eagle View Middle School. She plays volleyball for school as well as the Pikes Peak Club. She is always looking for fun. In fact if I want a glass of water or a snack I don't dare ask her to get it for me....she is known for adding things like SALT. She has some many friends I can't keep track of them!

Jordan is a sophomore at Air Academy. She also plays volleyball for school and club. She takes life more serious. She has never put anything foreign in my food. She has her drivers permit, already totaled my car....everyone is ok. She won't be an official driver until next May. She is more of a one or two friend person. I usually know the people that come over....not so with Sid.

Hudson, he goes to Eagle View too. He can't play school sports yet but he plays pride soccer, football for the Ravens, and YMCA basketball. And he plays a little guitar on the side. Hudson makes us all laugh....he's a boy. He says the funniest things. He is starting to eat a wider variety of food, he makes is own home made waffles, tomato soup, and mac n cheese.



Our kids are the greatest blessing. We are usually running to keep up with them, but wouldn't change a thing. To see them on the court playing volleyball or out on the soccer or football field is worth every penny spent or mile driven. They bring us such joy and happiness!


I have never had to wake one of them up for school. They get up, get ready and go. If they don't feel good and want to stay home from school they don't come up stairs and tell me they just text me.....how times have changed! They are all doing so good in school (obviously they got their smarts from Bobby), I will take credit for their athletic ability.....ha ha! I can't ever help them with homework it's over my head.
