Hailey & Lily in Des Moines

Last weekend we met our friends Sara, Taron and Lily in Des Moines for some fun and swimming. The girls really missed each other and loved playing together.

Hey Everyone

I first of all want to apologize for not keeping our blog up to date. Ever since the move, i've been on the road every week, and we've been totally struggling to keep up on things. (Like I should actually be doing the dishes right now). With that said, I wanted to tell you about a couple of cool things.

This term marks my halfway point in the MBA program. I'll be so excited when this is over so I can return to being a dad and husband fulltime. (and yes Dave, marketing manager).

HP has been doing GREAT on the potty. She pretty much goes on the potty every time she has to go, but we need to work on nighttime next. We're so proud of her. It's funny, we give her m&m's and stickers each time she goes, but she doesn't put the sticker on her shirt, she lifts her shirt and puts it on her belly.

Beth has really rocked Eden Prairie kids and is a great counselor. She does this while making sure i have time to do homework and travel. I don't know how she does it.

My favorite band Phish is getting back together so hopefully I'll get tickets for the Hampton, VA shows. Keep your fingers crossed. We are going to see Ben Folds next Friday and are super excited for that.

Happy Bday to Jules! She turns 40 (i know i'm being nice here, really nice) tomorrow. We love you and hope you had a great time last night. Dad, when she turns her next big birthday, can you please do it on a weekend!

Well, hope this updates you a bit. Again, we know we need to get more into this, but bear with us for a bit.

The big 28!

It has been a wonderful birthday. Depite the fact I am shocked I am 28 years old, I had a wonderful day. Thank you to all of you who sent cards and called with birthday wishes. Things have been very busy for the Dahline family but we are all doing well. Today Hailey and Jim suprised me with cards and a nice gift. I recieved several phone calls and cards as well, all of which were great. And for the first time I saved all the cards until my actual birthday, well except for one from my brother and sister in law. I was able to spend the evening with college friends and had a great time, Hailey made a good friend (possible future boyfriend) Jackson and had a great time at his house. Thank you Sarah and Derek for having us, we had a wonderful time with you and your families, and your house is amazing. It was a great party, we hope you enjoy your gift.

On another note, my brother and sister in law welcomed their first child into the world yesterday 9/12/08. Mira Lynn Kinsley is healthy and doing well. Mira will forever share her birthday with my sister Brianna which is great for both of them. Congrats Jeff and Keisha, welcome to the wonderful life of parenthood! We are so excited for you and cant wait to meet Mira.

With that, Good night!
