Fondue and chocolate party



A week ago we had a pretty fun party. Jon and Kristi have a fondue set and just got a chocolate fountain for Christmas. So they brought both of them over and we had a party. At the party were Darren and I, Jon and Kristi, and Tracie and Jeff. Our kids were there for the first part but they didn't last very long. We dipped bread, ham and pineapple in the cheese and all sorts of things in the chocolate. Strawberries and Ritz with peanut butter were my favorite. We decided not to think about all the calories we consumed. But it was fun. (Jon brought his Mom's computer over to see if it worked on our internet and, obviously it does. So it's just our computer that doesn't work. It's going to be a couple of months before I get regular updates.) Oh, and Darren took this picture.

Yesterday morning we found out all of the schools in the Upper Snake River Valley were closed due to wind chill temperatures below -20 degree. (Except BYU-Idaho - they don't close for things like that) Anyway, Kevin was very excited that he didn't have to go to school. We decided to paint their model car/airplane they got for Christmas. So here they are hard at work and here is the finished product. Oh, and by the way, I am playing catch up since our internet isn't working at home. So there are a few more new posts below this one. I can't do regular weekly updates until I get internet at home again so please bear with me.

When we were in Utah the last time, Darren was very impressed with Shandy's ability to wray Dexter's dirty diapers up really small. So when we got home he tried it with Jacob's diaper. His don't go quite as small as Dexters.

New Years






Here are pictures of our rockin' New Years at Carrie's house. I'm using a different computer at the photo lab and don't know how to use everything. I also have three wild chidren with me and have to hurry before they destroy the photo lab so I won't give too much detail on the pictures. The party consisted of Pat and Carl, Carrie and Sam, Darren and me, and five rowdy boys.
