Happy New Year!

Out with the old and in with the new. My December month was a little frustrating. My printer quit printing blues; which was a great big frustration since I was trying to print pictures for Christmas presents. I spent hours on line with the HP represenative and still couldn't get it to work. Martin looked at it for me and it still doesn't work. Even after buying about 8o dollars worth of ink it still doesn't work. Then my computer wouldn't start up. So it went to Martin's and he fixed it. Then my dryer stopped working. After pulling it apart we figured it was wires sparking. We are so blessed. The house could have burnt down. Thanks to Martin for going to Tuckers for me and getting the part we need. Mike finally fixed the dryer after the New Year. For awhile I hauled clothes downstairs and hung them on a homemade clothes line in the basement to dry. The kids loved the tent made my the sheets drying. I am glad to finally have a dryer to dry the clothes.
We had a fun day sledding down the hill at McGregor's hill. I was suprised to see Mikatie and Alex just jump on the sleds and go down by themselves as last year I had to go with each of them. We spent hours sliding down and being pulled back up the hill by Cameron and Janel on their snowmachine. Thanks for the fun day. We then went home, changed and went to Brian and Becky Jorgensen's for New Years Eve. We ate played the wii and then played games till I had to call an end to the evening at 10pm so that I could get some sleep before going to work the next day. Sorry. Mike and the kids were not ready to go, but I needed some sleep. It was a fun time for all.

Wow it rains and pours! Glad things are looking better. I miss texting with you but my phone isn't working. Trying to get it fixed but no luck so far. Wish I could just buy a new one. I like the look of your blog.
