Watch, Read, Listen

  The kids had a day off from school so after we ran our errands/doctor/eye appointments, we played out in the snow for a little bit again. We had a snowball fight, but it was a little unfair. Abby, Mckenzie and a friend of theirs all against me. I think I ended up with snow…

We got maybe 6 or 7 inches of snow yesterday and into the evening. It was beautiful to wake up to rooftops covered in pristine, white snow. The kids had a blast playing outside while Scott cleared the driveway. I came out long enough to snap some photos and pick Cooper up a time or…

Today was one of those days. I was feeling bummed because I felt like I was missing out on being part of a group. Even as adults we want to fit in and be liked and today, I felt like I was the geeky kid looking through the window at all the cool kids hanging…

  This boy just loves to dig through my kitchen drawers and cupboards and he loves to “cook”. Some days my crock pot is filled with goldfish and oven mitts. Other days, its my blender filled with toothpicks 🙂

The girls wanted to make their valentine’s cards to hand out at school, so I found a cute Minion card for Abby to make and an owl card for Mckenzie. I have to say it was a lot of prep work on my part, but giving up an entire naptime was so worth it. (and…
