Farmington Kuoppala's

Now that I THINK that I am getting the hang of this, we will try an entry (smiles)
What's new with the Farmington Kuoppalas:
Well, Dave plowed snow for 23 hours last week (13 of them straight in one day). He was ready for a nice long relaxed weekend and sleeping in was his priority which he managed both Saturday and Sunday! Our initial intent was to drive up north for the weekend but the Thursay snow had Dave behind the wheel for 10 hours and driving another 3 was something he did not want to do so we will try to pick another weekend.
Tanner is scheduled for his next surgery on his arm the 31st of March. They will remove his hardware (2 plates and 12 pins) and give him another 6-8 weeks of healing time so he should be ready to go by summer. He can not wait to be (as he would say) a normal kid again and not so restricted from sports. Tanner is looking in to joining the Army after he graduates, something every Mother loves to hear but we won't stand in his way if that is what he wants to do but we want to make sure he gets all of the facts first. Looking in to that.
Mitchell is growing like a weed, he will be tall like his Daddy! He has some of the funniest stories and is the cheapest entertainment around. Dave and I are doing the "same old, same old" with work and work. (smiles) Gearing up for another busy summer at the sod farm and they are already taking orders. May sell the motorcycle...Frans are you still interested? We decided that we can't drive the boat, camper and motorcycle all at once so giving up the 2-wheeler. All of our toys are summer toys and Dave has such limited "extra" time in the summer for fun that we decided to spend more time camping and fishing and not worry about his time for the motorcycle. So Frans if you are still interested let us know!
An idea for the blog site....we should post birthdays, anniversaries, special occasions each month just to remind everyone. What do you think???
Well I have to run for now...need to order my umbrellas for crafting...

I don't think we are going to be buying a motorcycle anytime soon...:) but thanks for asking....Frans would love it, but now is not a good time for buying toys:(
I think we should post B-days, etc...But, then, I would probably still forget them!
