..LiFe..



Well, as you can see life has been an insane journey for the past few months. We have tried to stay on top but it never seems to be enough. So I thought since I have a few minutes that I would try and do the best I could to fill you in.

January started off crazy, what a surprise. We both started school and have been crazy. Cody is taking online classes again this semester so when he isn't at work he is living on the computer. I signed up for 16 credits, and am going nuts. We hardly see each other, the days I am home he works and vice versa. Well, January 14th we were informed that Cody's Grandfather had passed away due to complications from cancer. It was hard news, but it was news we had expected at sometime. We made it through the month of January with not many other bumps.

February started and was crazy. I had an epidural pain block put in February 4th and was in loads of pain, but don't worry we left for Minnesota for the funeral the next morning at 5am. I spent two days hobbling and in a wheelchair. The funeral was nice, he was buried on a Military base, Fort Snelling. They had a 21 gun salute and the graveyard was filled with white headstones much like arlington. We spent the day with family and friends celebrating grandpa Carl. He will be missed. We spent the remaining time at the Mall of America and with each other. We came back to the crazyness and have been there since.

I am going to New York in 3 weeks and getting really excited about that it should be a truely stellar experience. Cody keeps working hard and did all his training to de-ice airplanes. Which he loves! So if you are ever on a Skywest flight and your plane has to get sprayed down at night, he might just be the one spraying you down. Tyke is keeping us continually excited and entertained. He is learning a new trick and hopefully we can film it and show it to you when he gets better at it.
