January Happenings

Besides our trip to KC and lots of visitors we had some other things go on here as well!  Lots of soccer practice and games, allergy testing for Mommy, karate twice a week for both kiddos, play time at school and home, snowmen decorations out finally after 4 years of hibernation in AZ 'cuz it just didn't make sense to put them out, Dairy Queen treats, fun with friends, Valentine's pics, and probably the biggest news is that Ashley switched preschools!  She now goes T-Th 8:15-11:45 unless she stays for extended day (which she'll do twice a week) and then we pick her up at 2:45pm.  Mommy wasn't sure she was learning anything at her old school coupled with the whole weird lice situation and the fact that Mommy feels settled in our new life that it is time for Ashley to be home more! She is now in the 4s class (she technically should be in the 3s because she was 3 when school started in August but they thought she should be in the 4s now) at First Baptist Christian School which is about 2 miles from the house!  

Roslansky Families Visit!!

The day after Grandma and Papa left our house had more visitors!  Jim, Annie, Sam and Elena flew in from MN and Nana and Papa Steve from AZ!  We were so excited that right after we moved to Arkansas Jim called and said they couldn't wait to visit and they did!  They actually came!  For a whole week!!!!!!!!!!  So we showed them everything!  We started at Chick Fil A!

And the day they left, the 'curse of the cousins' hit and Trevor went down with a virus.  

Thank goodness it was just a 48 hour bug and he was back to his happy healthy self!  Not pictured here was poor Uncle Jim threw out his back and was in so much pain he could barely moved.  So he holed up in bed for the last 3 days of the trip.  Luckily Sara got him into a chiropractor and did a little better every day so that he was able to fly home with his family and continue doctoring back home.  Next time no crazy dance moves Jim!!!  But come back any time!!  We love visitors and are so thankful we have ones that come to visit!  Who is next?!?!?  We have 2 guest rooms with king size beds and a bonus room with a full pullout bed.  Plus we can make other arrangements - plenty of room for everyone!!!  Come visit!
