Happy New Year

Well we have survived Christmas at the Dahlke home. The kids got all they ever wanted and more. While mom and dad got the best Christmas ever. The kids were all in bed and asleep by 9:15. That is really good considering we were out having a party at Grandpa and Grandma Peters' place till 9:00! We had a wonderful time Christmas eve. The fondue dinner was delish and the entertainment was fantastic. The manger scene in the barn with baby Kye was the icing on the cake. And the costumes were just the right touch.

After Christmas we were able to go to Grandpa and Grandma Dahlke's place in freezing cold Idaho. Somehow the kids were brave enough to strap on the winter cloths and brave the 6 foot high snowdrifts for a day of sledding. They had so much fun.

It has really been nice to have Jared home for a while this holiday season. Jared has been working here in Salt Lake over the past couple weeks. But after the New Year it is back on the road for Jared, and back to school for Braydon. That means back to the swing of things for Jody. It has been so relaxing for me with everyone home and no place to go.

We want to wish everyone a very happy new year.
