Mr. Paul Ross and Miss Layla Kari

Well, my nephew and niece are pretty much the coolest kids I have even been around, so I decided that they had to be in my blog.... Paul is four years old already and there is never a dull moment with him. There is always a new Paul story. People always tell Tobey that she needs to write down all the funny things that Paul says, but if she did that she would be writing nonstop. I really don't know where he gets all of his energy from or who he acts like :) .



Paul loves to go out to his Pops and Grandma Hoff's farm. Pops even lets him go in with the chickens and somehow Paul can catch the chickens. I don't know how he does it, but I think that chicken is scared to death! haha


Paul also had a duck out at the farm, his name was Quackers. Poor Quackers passed away a few months ago. He was a runt duck in the group, but he was just the right size for Paul.


These are some pictures of the Paul man from this winter. He really like to go out and play in the snow.


Paul trying to get some pictures for the Christmas cards.



Then there is Miss Layla... aka Baby Chickie. Miss Layla is now 6 months old. She is such a little cutie. She is rolling around and sitting up on her own. I always have to stop by on my way home from school to see these two. Layla always has to do her silly little laugh for me.


Out in the snow



She is all dressed up in her workout outfit. She has cool leggings that Aunt Roma got her.


Sweet Baby Chickie on Christmas


All Dressed up.


I love that little face!

Track 2008-2009 so far....

Well we added quite a few throwers this year. We have added 6 new throwers this year. Brian (aka Beef), Alex, Chris, Leigh, Tori, and Jason (not in the picture, he came second semester). This is the throwers here at ISU after our first indoor meet.




We have a pretty good time hanging out together inside and outside of track. Practices can be pretty interesting with everyone, as you can see in the pictures....



As the year goes on I will update everyone with the track season. This weekend we are going to Indiana State for another indoor meet.

Halloween...Even though it was a long time ago...

I thought that I would share some funny pictures and stories from the first semester of school. Well, lets start with Halloween. I dressed up like Tinkerbell again. All of us had a good time dressing up and being goofy.

First is me, dressed as Tinkerbell, then Brian aka Beef as Michael Phelps, Tori as a pirate, Leigh as Barbi hahah, and Chris as a pimp lol. I know Beef had to be freezing because it was pretty chilly out that night!

Nights Out With Sister Kate


I got to hang out with Sister Kate a lot over break. We had a lot of fun! One night we went with some of Kate and Mark's friends and we sang karaoke and went dancing. It was fun and super funny! Kate and I even sang a song with Larry... we sang "Love Shack" and let me tell ya, we were awesome! (not really) haha The guys really seemed to enjoy singing too! They were really getting into their singing.



We were all having a good time dancing too.

Christmas Break

I just finished up with my Christmas break. It was waaaaay to short. It was nice to hang out with my friends and have some time to relax. But I guess that it's ok that it's over because now I get to start my track season.

Hey!

As requested by Sister Tob, I decided to make a blog. I hope to keep you posted on my last year of track and everything else that is going on with me.
