This is a post to apologize for my lack of posting. In my defense, I tried (a couple of times...), but I couldn't get Blogger to work. (Anyone else having trouble with the "publish post" button not working?)
Anyway, a lot has gone on in the past month. Eli had his first birthday, we took a trip to Mississippi to meet our new nephew, we started potty training, and the list goes on. I'm going to do my best to do some detailed catch-up posts on all the big events over the next few days. If Blogger cooperates...

The Gospel
Hey all, just thought I'd share this video. This guy is a poet (and probably the only poet I've ever understood or been entertained by), and he's got an awesome gospel presentation in this video. His name is Propaganda. Enjoy!

Whistling
So I finally got a video where you can make out Eli's whistling. It starts with Micah's attempt, and you don't actually hear Eli until briefly at the end, but I got it. Enjoy!

February Pictures
Life's been busy, so my apologies for not keeping the blog updated lately. Here's February's pictures to tide you over until I can come up with a real post.

Swagbucks
Okay, so this post has nothing to do with my family, but I wanted to say a little something about Swagbucks. If you've never heard of them, Swagbucks is an online points system that rewards you for searching the internet (among other things). You set up an account and use their search engine, and you can win "Swagbucks" when you perform searches. Points can be redeemed for many prizes, including gift cards.
I started using Swagbucks a few months ago, and I've earned more than $30 in Amazon gift cards, just from doing what I already do online. There are other ways to earn Swagbucks besides searching, if you would like to try them, but I find that even just by performing my typical searches, the points add up pretty quickly.
So why am I telling all eight of you who read my blog this? Well, two reasons. 1) I think it's a good deal to get rewarded for something you already do. 2) If you sign up through my referral link below, I can win extra Swagbucks when you win. I generally don't try to get people to do things purely for my benefit, but I think this is helpful to anyone. And if you want to sign up, but don't want me to get credit, you can certainly just go to Swagbucks.com and sign up there. :)

December pictures and Christmas
So, here's December's pictures, including Christmas at Grandma and Grandpa Brown's house in South Dakota.

We had a great time up there, as usual. Some of the highlights were helping Kayla's fiance Travis move into the house that they just bought and making flowers and invitations for their wedding this summer. We also got to go looking for bridesmaid dresses. Of course, we played lots and lots of Mexican Train dominoes (or Dom-ee-ohs, as Micah calls them).
Micah had a great time, too. He went outside several of the days we were there to play in the snow. There's a fast-moving creek right across the road from the house, and Grandpa and Micah had a great time throwing sticks into it. We came home with lots of gifts, including the movie "Happy Feet," which Micah calls "Baby Penguin Movie." He likes to dance "like a penguin" now....sooo cute!

Just to tide you over....
Well, I'm way behind on blogging. Yesterday, I finally uploaded pictures from December to my computer. My project for the next couple of days is putting them online and updating the blog with our happenings. Until then, here's our crazy son to entertain you.
