About 2054 Miles

In February 2007, my husband and I packed up all our belongings, drove 2054 miles and moved from California to Iowa. This blog is about my and my husband's adventures, which mainly now feature our two boys- 5 year old Rex and 3 year old Wyatt.

Just Dance

It seems no one can resist a catchy Lady Gaga tune.



Actually, Rex will dance to anything- any time he hears some music, he stops what he is doing so he can shake it. You may notice some abandoned flash cards and George in the background of the video. That is because as soon as he heard me start up the music, he dropped what he was doing and came over to the gate at the end of the hall (the closest he could get to me and the music) and started dancing.

In other news, Rex got his first H1N1 flu shot on Monday. I wish he was able to get both before our trip to California but since they have to be 28 days apart, there is no way. We got it for him the first day our county had the clinics so there isn't anything else we could have done. Oh well. He is such a tough guy- no tears or anything when he got it. And in a related story, my poor sister has gotten sick with the stupid swine flu. Not great for anyone but really not great when you are getting married in 3 weeks and trying to get everything ready for the wedding. Here's hoping she gets well very, very soon!

Not much planned for us this weekend. We need to work on getting some yard stuff and house stuff done before winter gets here. So much more to do to get ready for winter when you live where it snows! Last weekend I had Bunco and Rob played golf so that was a fun weekend. Now we have to have a work weekend- yuck. I made cheesecake pops for my snack for Bunco and they were a big hit. I forgot to take a picture but they looked really cute and tasted pretty good too.

Boring. Cold and Boring.

That's us right now- cold and boring. I haven't blogged in a while because there is absolutely nothing to blog about. Don't believe me? Here is what we did Tuesday night.

Rob used the newspaper to make Rex a hat.



But he didn't really want to wear it.



Then Rob put it on.



So that's us. It's really cold here. Our highs have been in the 40s and lows in the 20s and 30s. It has even snowed some around us. We've had snow in our weather forecast but we have been lucky and managed to avoid it so far. Average high for now is 65 so this really stinks. And that is all I've got.
