Asher is 7 months old!

What can I say about Asher except that he is the cutest baby on the planet!

Taking Sabaka to the park

Run Sabaka and Rosie, run!

Whoof, I think they ran to fast. Break time!

Slide down the slide, Sabaka! He didn't like it very much.

Sabaka's attempt to stand in an 's' pattern. He saw something interesting and it apparently helped him concentrate to stand like this.

Bucking Elephant!

The pelican was successful in bucking Rosie off of it.

We saw this pretty double rainbow on the way back home.

A Glimps into Psycho Family

You may look at Ellen and think, "What does she mean 'Psycho Family'? So far everything looks normal." Look on and you will be convinced.

Bwah-hah-hah! Rosie is planning her next evil scheme.

Follow me or I will lick you into submission!

Don't listen to that goon. I'm am Empress Strawberry the Great. Fear me or I will bite your nose!

Roller Skating!

Everyone went roller skating one evening. The roller skating rink is actually the location of Joel and Ellen's church. On Tuesday nights they play Christian music!

Pbth! How dare you take my picture!

Here we come! Pull me along, Jessi!

Whee! This is fun!

Rosie is the queen of roller skating tricks. She tries all sorts of new ones and usually succeeds.

You put one foot in front of the other and soon you are skating across the floor!

Thank you, God!

On January 31, at 12:30 a.m., I was called by the Cottage Grove police department. They found my car! I was able to pick it up from the impound on Saturday, February 3rd. The delay was caused by insurance having to inspect the car first. My car is in pretty good shape. Whomever stole my car put some sort of rack on the top. They took the rack off so my car has a few screw holes in the top. They stole my stereo, 3 studded snow tires, a first aide kit, partially used containers of oil, jumper cables, manheim steamroller meets the mouse tape, a tape of all the old plays that Kim and I did as kids, my long handled scraper, a very small and faded stuffed pug, and a pair of dirty socks. What they left was one studded snow tire that I had in my spare tire compartment and an Adventures in Odyssey tape. I also no longer have a mirror in my right side mirror. My car also smelled like gas on the inside. PEW! I used two bottles of Fabreeze and one full container of uphoulstry cleaner. It still kind of stinks. I was able to get a boom box for free that I can now use in my car for music. I'm so glad I got my car back! Financially I had no options of getting a new car. I am also thankful that I do not have to have anything fixed. I have a $500 deductible on my account. My damage to my car was set at 200 something dollars. I then had to pay $260 to get my car back from the impound. I also had to pay $150 for a rental car (I was later reimbursed $100). Due to having to pay out all that money (as well as some other expenses that came up earlier), I could only pay a few bills (namely rent, car insurance, and my co-signed loan). Everything else did not get paid off this month. So far Compassion International, Advanced Imaging, and the Student Loan department have agreed to waive my payment this month. One of my credit cards has created a payment plan for me so that I don't have to pay back double my bill next month. I am also waiting on a call back from Christian Debt Consolidators so I can find out if they can consolidate some of my loans and make it easier to pay off for me. That would be such a great thing! Thanks for all the prayers everyone!
