Happy 80th Birthday Grandma


Well I get in trouble from some people (you know who you are) if I don't update my blog so I guess I will update what has happened since we got back from Disneyland. Actually we must be pretty boring people because nothing new really happens. We had a Wii party with the boys and they loved that. We rented a few games and stayed up playing them as a family. We had pizza and banana splits and rootbeer floats and everything. It is hard playing Nintendo with Garrett though. I used to have to let him win and now I couldn't win if my life depended on it.
We also had fun watching the superbowl at Chelton's parent's house. Don't ask me who was playing let alone who won though (not a football fan). We did get in a good Scrabble match with my dad last week. We are kind of Scrabble nerds. When we go on vacation with my dad we spend hours and hours playing. Usually it just goes back and forth between Chelton and my dad winning but once and a while I get to win.
Just last Saturday we went to my grandma's 80th birthday party. It was nice to see all of my cousins and aunts and uncles. We sure don't get together very much at all. It was nice to see my grandma too. Happy Birthday Grandma!!!
Well in other news we will find out tomorrow if Connor has to have his tonsils out or not. That will be fun. I guess it is better to get them out now rather than later in life. Garrett is still having a good time in 1st grade. He is doing so good in reading, spelling, math and science. He comes home and tells me things I didn't know (I guess I'm not smarter than a 1st grader). Kylie just turned 14 months. She is getting so close to walking. She will stand by herself and sometimes takes a step but that is all right now. I guess it's her tiny size making her legs not strong enough but she sure is close. It is snowing hard today so that means Chelton is out plowing all day and all night. We love and also hate the snow at our house. Well I will try to update my blog weekly to you few people who actually look at it, even though not much happens here at the Spendlove residence. I guess if nothing happens it means nothing bad is happening either.

I'm SO proud of you! Way to update! :) So, we totally have a Scrabble obsession too lately. Have you ever played Take Two or aka Speed Scrabble? Our friends taught it to us and I am a little obsessed! I saw your comment about the Lemi-shine stuff. Let me know if it works for you. It really saved all my dishes and I haven't had the problem since. Did I tell you to get it at good ol' Walmart? Anyways...hope your sweet little Connor's tonsil surgery goes well. That's a bummer for a little guy. Keep updating! It's good to see what you guys are up to. I'm excited to see you next month!
