The Hansen Boys



We had an absolutely wonderful trip to Mike and Heather's. Thanks guys for putting up with us for a week. It always throws a wrench in things to have people come for that long.But we had
a great time. It is so fun to be together. We love you all .

Leif got in on the action

Grandma and Lily baked a cake together. We had such a good time.

One of the major events of the week was building a chicken coop. The weather didn't cooperate and they weren't able to finish it but they got a good start.

Jake loves his dad and Cub Scouts

Jake is growing up so fast. What a handsome dude!

Just hanging out

We went to see Bill Cosby at the U last night. He was great. His show was 2 hours and 15 minutes long and we laughed the whole time. He hasn't lost his ability to tell stories and get the audience to laugh. It was really fun. Craig and I drove separately because he came from work and I just met him down there. I made a wrong turn out of the parking lot and ended up touring the parking lots of the U of U Hospital and even their power plant. But luckily I just kept going and eventually came to a road I recognized. I did arrive home safely and at the same time as Craig (I left almost a half hour ahead of him because he had to walk to his car and get out of his parking lot). However, alls well that ends well.







Craig sent me beautiful roses at school for valentine's week. Everyone in the office was jealous. He takes really good care of me. Ellbie liked them too.
Ellbie got her hair cut today and gussied up for Valentine's Day. Yes I agree. It is sick when you talk about your dog on your blog.








It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon and we decided to go snowshoeing. We went to one of our favorite places up above Francis. It was really fun. Saturday night we went out to dinner and a show with Ben and Maggie which was really fun too.Of course I don't have pictures of that. Ben and Maggie stayed overnight and played Mario Kart. They were both a heck of a lot better than I am. As you can see, Craig enjoyed the competition.(Sorry Ben and Maggie- it's not a real great picture.)

Bob and Bobbi came up today. We went out to lunch and then came back to the house and played cards. It was fun to catch up. We hadn't seen each other for a while.

We took a video of us playing with Rock Band. Yes it is sideways. If there is a way to edit a video, I couldn't figure it out. So just turn your computer.

When we got home from the Christmas party, Ben and Maggie set up Rock Band. They had gotten the Beattles music for x-box. We all sat around "rocking out" til about 1:00 in the morning. It was really fun.







Last night, December 26th, was the annual Hansen Christmas party. This year the party was at Karen's. There were 36 of us there. That is about half. We are getting to be a pretty good size group. It was a fun evening.
