Yesterday (aka, before all the snow, the last day of January), the kids and I went outside because they wanted to try to go sledding. The snow hadn’t fallen, but they still had fun. I wanted to share some pics I had gotten of them, but completely forgot to do so. Enjoy! Playing on the…
What a sore day. Our whole family woke with aches from yesterday. Some were worse off than others, but at breakfast Hayden didn’t think he could make it. Mike headed to the store after breakfast, so I took the kids upstairs to get ready for the day. After a bit, Violet managed to somehow jump/fall…
Today, our family ended up taking the day to go downhill skiing. None of us has ever gone! Mike and I tried to go once before, but they had lost power, so we ended up going home before we even got started. Violet didn’t have school and Mike and I took the day off. (Hayden…

Mike had an all-day retreat so the kids and I spent the morning cleaning and continuing our final dress rehearsal for that evening’s talent show. Hayden was dressed for his dance performance after we finished cleaning…

Yesterday turned out to be another BEAUTIFUL day. The kids and I cleaned in the morning because some friends of mine were going to be coming over in the afternoon. Once we got things cleaned up we had a dance party and then I let the kids play some Minecraft for a little bit. In…
We are ringing in the new year with salsa chicken and margaritas (just Libby and I are drinking these). Even though Hayden doesn’t get to drink margaritas he still likes it when we make them because he gets to have a lime wedge. Hayden ate three wedges like an orange. Happy Margarita night! (Oh yeah……
