The Drew Israelsen Family

Robert asked Santa for a BB gun for Christmas and sure enough Christmas morning Santa delivered.  Brady was great with him and helped him make a target and took him out back on Christmas day and helped him figure out how to use it.  He loves it.  He is definitely all boy!

Every year for the past 7 years I have given Drew a present from his Dad for Christmas. This was this years project. It is a blanket I made out of a pair of Pa's old camo pants and a pair of Mine, Robert's and Lena's pants. It took alot of time but Drew absolutely loves it. It made me feel like all the time put into it was worth it when he was snuggled up in it the other night and said "I don't know what I did before I had this blanket."

This past November Drew and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary. Since I have been a huge slacker with blogging lately I am barely posting this. We spent the evening together and my mom took the kids for the night. (this is our anniversary present from her every year). I have loved every minute that I have been married to Drew and look so forward to the next 50! Love you babe!

So lately in my spare time I have picked up a new hobby...well actually an old hobby I just discovered again.  I have made a stack of hot pads in many colors a baby blanket and my newest is the cute headband.  I figure this is more productive then setting on facebook playing poker...although I am very good at poker to bad the money isn't real, of course Drew loses as much as I win so in the end we would still break even!
