It was a sad Valentine's day. All the girls are sick with that cold/flu. Olivia and Sonoma stayed home from school on Friday. Kate decided to go so she could go to a birthday party afterwards. So she took and picked up Olivia's Valentines. By the afternoon Bob started getting sick also and by 4:00 he was in bed sweating. Yuck!!!! He did get me a very cute card (Bob kind of cute) and a cute shirt. I got him 3 cards, I love Hoops and YoYo and so everytime I saw one I bought it. Yes I am ill and I enjoyed the cards so much more then he did. They make me laugh so hard that I almost pee my pants. I also got him a 1/2 a box of See's Candies his favorite. I had a great self date and watched Nick and Nora's Playlist on DVD all by myself (bob was asleep next to me).
I hope that everyone gets better soon, I am really tired of disinfecting my house and I have done about 12 loads of laundy in 2 days.

California State Capital
We had a great afternoon visiting the California State Capital. When the girls were little we used to go to the capital grounds and feed the squirrel. So this time we not only feed the squirrel, we also went inside the capital and did the tour. It was neat to see each county's respiration of what resources where in the county. We also saw where our local lawmakers work and vote on issues of the state. What a great and relaxing day.

Christmas Holiday's
We had a wonderful Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Grandpa and Grandma Van Horn drove in from Utah on 24th. That evening we went over to Grandpa and Grandma Rutledge's house for there yearly Christmas Eve party. We ate, watched the kids open a present and played the elephant gift game (I think there were 47 numbers past out). We then came home just in time to miss the pajama elf delivering new P.J's to the kids.
We were then woken up around 6:30 Christmas day, to 3 anxious girls wanting to see what Santa brought them. Sonoma got a DVD camcorder (watch out U Tube), Kate got all new cake/cupcake decorating stuff, and Olivia got a Barbie Christmas. When then all sat around opening other presents eating my Mom's famous Orange Rolls and Monkey Bread YUM!
Over then next couple days we watched lots of movies, played the Wii and got plenty of horseback ridding rides in. Oh and Grandpa Van Horn got 1 Mt. Bike ride in.
We are so thankful for the wonderful blessings we have be blessed with and the opportunity to have the Grandparents here to celebrate the life of our Savior Jesus Christ. We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a great 2009!

Christmas Picture that didn't make the cut
This is the picture that was the best one that was taken, but it didn't make the cut. Reason being is that cowboys legs were cut off. Every time that I see this picture it makes me laugh. What a great afternoon of laughing and joking around. I am in love with our horse cowboy, he just puts up with anything and doesn't really make to much of a fuss. He always is very aware. When my Dad and I were out of a ride the other day he was starting to get annoyed because we weren't going home and it was getting dark. It is funny how he is aware of what is going on. I am thankful for my girls and how great they are. I love each and everyone of there personalities. I am quite thankful for the family that I have.
