Enjoying the Journey: January 2011

Clints new job....

So this is what Clint has been up to..he is in North Dakota driving trucks that move the oil riggers around to different sites. He is enjoying it I think although it is WAY cold but he is getting used to it...He said it was 32 degrees the other day and it felt so nice...ugh!!! It has been as low and =20. I think really he would like to come home and things are still up in the air about when he will...we miss him but it is probably harder for him cause we are all together and still going about life...he will be home for a short visit Feb 16 for a chemical meeting...we are all excited...here is a few pics of what he up to...

GRAVEL

Just before Clint left we had our neighbors Jesse (who Clint is with in North Dakota) bring us a couple loads of gravel. It was fun to go with him and get the gravel and watch him dump it and all that great stuff...but most of all it is terrific to have gravel now instead of MUD!!!!! Thanks Jesse...you are a great neighbor!!!

Happy New Year 2011!!!

Our new years was a very interesting one. Both Amber and Heather had their own parties they went to so they were gone most of the day. Clint is taking a new job that will be in North Dakota and he left Saturday at 2 in the afternoon...so Friday he and I spent all day getting him ready and all his stuff together and a little apprehensive and the whole thing. Kinda a sad time. We did have a fun time though..Santa always comes back to see us with family games on his way back to the North Pole...so of course he brought X-Box games. The boys has a great time playing them.
IT GONNA BE A GREAT YEAR!!!! I just know it!!!

CHRISTMAS 2010

I dont take nearly enough pictures at Christmas because I just loves watching he kids enjoying everything. We are so blessed with such great kids and such a great life. We have such fun together and both Clint and I are so thankful for that. Christmas is always so much fun for us and a great time to reflect on all the blessing we have and for the birth of the Savior. We are so greatful for the gospel in our lives. We are thankful for our great family.
This is Christmas Eve...Blankets and pajama bottoms are always a must on Christmas eve.....and making sugar cookies :) of course

Santa has arrived

Now Santa came around 3a.m......by 3:30 a.m. two boys were in our room wondering what time it was....we held them off till 4:30...I went and took a shower...5:00 Amber is drug out of bed and by 5:30 Christmas is complete!!!!! What a day...Corey did not go to sleep until around 10 that evening..he was pretty grumpy by then but I was amazed he stayed awake that long!!!

some Corey shots because he is our favorite cowboy!!

We got an X-Box 360 with Kinect and it is amazing...no controller is the greatest invention ever..it means no batteries and no figuring out which buttons to push...it is so much fun and hilarious to watch...I just had to get these pictures of the guys dancing....story if there attire...the sales guy told Clint tighter clothing works best so the reader can see you better....Im not sure he meant this TIGHT!!!!

Notice...Corey doesnt need to worry about tight clothing:)

Craigs school partys are coming to an end.....

I really dont think Craig realizes that this is thelast year he will be having school parties...Kinda sad...but Corey starts up next year so no break for me :)Corey loves going to Craigs school and hanging out and his class loves Corey.
Corey was very serious and making his gingerbread house and did a great job!!!

SNOW SNOW SNOW

This year we have gotten quite a bit of snow and the kids have really enjoyed it. Corey and Craig have really had fun this year and even Corey has stayed out there longer that I thought he would. One night Clint pulled them on the four wheeler till like 9:30...it was crazy(and a school night!!!)Oh dear!! Us Romriells!!!

John Deere Christmas Party

Dec 12th was Clint work Christmas party. It is a really nice dinner for just the adults. This year they had it at the Hilton in Boise and offered rooms for really cheap so we decided to get one cause the kids LOVE staying in hotels. It was a lot of fun. I didnt take many pictures ...but the pool was a hit :)

Happy Birthday to 5 year old COREY

Corey;s birthday was a little calm because Clint had to make a run to Washington and didnt get home till midnight, the girls of course had various activites going on...so Craig Corey and I celebrated..Corey didnt seem to mind at all..he was just excited about all of it...I guess being the youngest.....stuff happens..it was a fun day!!!

Beautiful AMBER!!!

As always Amber is such a beautiful girl. Thanksgiving Day Diane and her went out and took some more great Senior Pictures. They turned out so great...it is so hard for me to pick a favorite!! Diane does such a great job..be sure to check out her stuff...her site is one my side bar :)
