Our Saturday












It was a beautiful Saturday here!! The weather was terrific and makes us ready for spring. We spent some time today with some new friends. The first was this dog, Jake. He was friendly but a little bit of a nuisance in our situation....Ethan was entertaining him.











Brendan having a blast on our new friend.
















Aaron's turn next....















She looks like a pro doesn't she??




















She had the best time loving on this horse. She was completely fascinated by the whole thing. She rode him by herself. She brushed him and even got to ride him again with her brother. We just have to work on not leaning too far to the right. Brendan and Lauren both slid off of the horse and onto the ground. It scared everyone including the horse but no one was hurt and they both got back on and rode him again. Ethan enjoyed riding too but for some reason I did not get a picture of him up there. Thanks so much to Ms Deanna for sharing her horses with us ;)

Snow Day!!!





This is how it started on Thursday afternoon. See how excited he was???












This is how much snow we got on Thursday night and Friday morning!
Pretty proud of that snowman.










Next, the boys needed an igloo. Not sure whos idea this was.











but it turned out great!
























WE haven't seen this much snow since Michigan!














Lauren liked it the least. It was fun for about an hour until her toes got cold!









The boys played outside from 7am until about 3:30pm with a 20 minute pancake break.










We even had tears when it started to melt. Such a fun day and so many memories made. We made snow ice cream, another snow fort and lots of snowball fights!

A Peek at Christmas

We had an interesting Christmas. Aaron got sick then Lauren. Ethan had enough of Aaron's cough to keep us on our toes. We stayed home and had Christmas all by ourselves this year for fear of giving our "junk" to anyone else. We were unable to do our traditional meals and things with extended family but we were very rested and the kids are getting better.






























The tree that we almost couldn't get into the house :-)








Fairy Costume-she was so happy!













Serious cookie decorating....











and a gingerbread house.














Brendan was the only one that was 100% well.










A Shiner for Christmas!
