Happy Birthday Bennett!

Bennett turns two on the 28th! We're having his birthday party on Sunday, it has an anything-on-wheels theme. Happy Birthday, sweet boy! Love, Mommy

I'm back!

After being away from the blogosphere for various reasons (living life), I just finished a monster post on my Milk & O's blog. Take a look: www.frofamilyblog.blogspot.com
Thanks for posting the family picture Allie! And happy birthday!
Mom and Dad are going to visit Alva Retta in W Palm Beach at the end of March; we should have them blog about their adventures remotely!

Happy Birthday Allison!

We love you!

Finally Slowing Down

Hey all! Things have been so crazy here, but it seems to be slowing down a bit, finally! I'm in the process of helping plan my 20-year class reunion, which has not been easy, considering we only had a 10-year so far and that was kind of a flop. So with that, together with the daily craziness of my 4-person household, I had been going a little nutso. Tyler had his quarterly parent/teacher conference again tonite and is doing well. It's just amazing to compare what he did at the beginning of the school year to what he did 3 months ago and to what he did late last week. Wow! I really have to credit the teachers these days! It can't be easy! Samantha started her Preschool room at the daycare last week. She's also adjusting, but still kind of shy in her new room. She'll be fine. She has that Scheibe blood in her...can't be shy for long! The kids have been going nuts around here though, and I will attribute much of that to being stir crazy! It's been so blasted cold here! YIKES! I woke up on Sunday morning and checked our thermometer and it read -20 and that didn't include the wind chill. And now tomorrow we are supposed to get another snow dumping. We're apparently already under a "snow advisory". And it doesn't help when dad calls from Florida and says it's 85 degrees! And Eric & Gwen are in Mexico right now...those dirty b@#&$%@s! tee hee - just kidding! I love you and you know it! Just don't come back married! : ) And, I finally set up our new scanner/printer/copier, so I am attaching our family photo from October 2007. Hey, other than that...nothing much is new! Hope all of you are well and hanging in there...eagerly awaiting spring/summer!
