Of course her dad had to embarrass her by having the pig come over to congratulate her! Kelsey was nice enough though to jump in the picture with her!
Way to go Rach!
I was worried since it had been a few weeks that Maddy wouldn't remember me but when we got there she ran right over and gave me a hug! I was so glad!
Thanks guys for a great weekend!
My mother and me
Rosanne and me - Rosanne was nice enough to take off half the day at work so we could spend a little extra time together!
Laura and me - unfortunately I didn't get to spend as much time with Laura because she had class Tuesday night but I still got to spend time with her so that was nice!
Of course I thoroughly enjoyed being able to spend some time with Toby! Toby still remembers that I always share the last drops of my ice cream with him...he is patiently waiting!
It was sure nice being able to visit with my parents and my sisters and as much as I missed Kyle on the trip it was fun for the 4 of us girls to just hang out together. We visited lots and watched a couple episodes of Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman like the good ol' days! 
Our huge front room!
There is even room for me to have my craft desk set up!
Eventually we are going to try to get another couch since we have so much room!
Here is our small hallway to the rest of the apartment.
To the left is our kitchen
The only bad thing about our kitchen is the top shelves are too tall for me! I will have to get a stool for when Kyle is not around!
To the right is our bathroom.
Straight ahead is our huge bedroom! Below is my new down comforter bed set that I got for Christmas with the help of various people! Which I absolutely love! I even hate getting out of bed in the morning because I am so comfy!
We have lots of closet space which is really nice.
We had to put up some really dark curtains because it was too bright at night to sleep.
Well that completes the tour of our new place! We will be here at least through the summer so feel free to come and visit! :-)
For New Years Eve we went over to Kyle's grandma's and ate h'orderves and played games with Kyle's moms side of the family.
Kelsey and me
Earlier in our visit Kyle and I took Rachel out to lunch with us.
Then Rachel returned the favor and took me out to dinner one night.
Kyle's mom went and sat in the snow and then dared all of us to do it...after some teasing and persuasion we all ended up doing it. It sure felt good to get back in the water!
Somebody had to get dunked!
Later that day we had a real nice dinner with Kyle's grandma and some of his aunts and uncles from his mom's side of the family. 
The four of us lounging around in our new pj's!
Here is Kyle and his Dad acting out their new pj's!
