The Smell of Fresh Paint not Flowers

Welcome back Ernie and Kim, It's been a while since we last posted anything and trust me it's only because we haven't sat down and done it. We have had plenty of topics to blog about but we just haven't done so. Therefore I'm going to try and catch you all up on this one Blog.

Couple of things happening.

1. Kim and I decided that we are going China this summer

2. We got a Wii Fit and are currently training for the Bolder Boulder in May

3. Celebrated Kim's Birthday January 3rd

and

4. Spent our first Valentines day weekend together as a married couple doing what else....

No you sickos... we spent the weekend fixing up our house. So instead of flowers we had the fresh aroma of paint as Kim and I decided to finally paint our bedroom.

It was a great day of Prep work, having the inlaws over to help, and rewarding them with a home cooked meal. Guess what Barb J. we had the baked Ziti. It was great.

After painting Kim and I celebrated Presidents' day by running 4 miles outside with our dog and had Mark and Abby over for dinner. It's always a good time when Abby, Mark, and Nolan come over because Nolan always does something spectacular when he is here. The first time we babysat he learned to hump..(NO Not from me, I don't know where he learned it). Well tonight he decided to have the biggest blow out that anyone has ever seen. It was the equivalent of 4 chipolte pinto bean burritos. THANK YOU ABBY FOR MAKING CHILLI THE NIGHT BEFORE AND FEEDING HIM BEANS. So we all stopped dinner to bathe Nolan and burn his clothes(not really) Good times and might I say the steak was actually really good as well.

It was actually quite humorous as we were all eating our nice steak dinners and Kim looks down at Nolan and says (in the most calm voice) "oh that isn't very good" As we all looked down mount vacuvious was erupting out of the diaper and all over the floor. HA HA HA Kim and I have now experienced Nolan's puke and Poop first hand. YES we love him to death but it definitely good Birth Control! Kim and I just aren't ready for that. Then again i don't know if Mark and Abby are quite ready for those situations but it breeds good stories of fellowship.

Below are a couple of pictures of our adventures on Valentines Day.
