Winter Is

 
Winter Is...
 
 

 
Naps on the couch
 
 
Good Reads.
With leaves for bookmarkers.
 
 
Lots of light saboring.
 
 
 
Snow Forts.
 
 
 
Dogs pulling a sled 200 miles.
 
 
And the musher behind them.
 
 
Coats zipped up to our eyeballs
 
 
Frozen Face.
Seriously, his face was frozen.

 
 
 Skiing

 

Falling down while skiing

 
 
Success! while skiing.
 
 
 
Lot's of yelling, "Do the pizza!!!" at skiing children.
 
 
Together.

      Skiing with small children is a bit like camping with small children always seems like a good idea.... ;) We do have a good time, it's just exhausting at the same time. I know you know about this. :) Glad you're feeling better Heidi. I always apprecite you stopping by...

    My husband didn't grow up skiing (he's only been three times, I think), so we most likely won't make it a family sport. Our kids haven't ever skied yet, but I can imagine it's not so easy. :) I think I started skiing when I was 10, so I wasn't really young, but it came fairly easy to me...not saying that I liked it, but I was good at it. Ha! What I REALLY LIKED was going inside for hot chocolate. :)
    Thank you! I'm glad I'm feeling better too. SOO nice to have energy again. Enjoy your evening!

Never Too Late for Friday Favs!

Yes, I know it's Sat. It's actually lateish Sat. evening. FridayFavs are actually supposed to be posted on Friday. Which is not today. Obviously. Oh, time management we have already decided you are one of my greatest foes. However, since the past couple of weeks have been, well pretty wonderful I thought I would share in more of the fun and favorite things we did together. These here are some of our Favs from when the laundry fairy (AKA Nana) was still in town.  Making sweet treats     And a Pinata And just for the record Pinatas are hard to make. It is a project that takes about a week. Not 2 or 3 days Unless you live in the South and can put it outside to dry in Oct.     Best. Dad. Ever.     Ironman. Meg (from Little Women). And a pirate, of course. I love them all. Well, the children dressed up as them anyway.     Yup. This here is the...

This Last we do look forward to

Growing up, going to school there were two days most look forward to. The first day of school...and the last. Ok, so there were some in between, but we are talking about MOST looked forward to. It isn't a whole lot different with home schooling, but I must admit now I get that feeling that you teachers must feel at the end of the year...sweet relief...and it sure feels great! This year the kids helped me put together some games for an end of year par-tay. But first we decided an end of year photo is a must. Here is to our future veterinarian and firefighter...Lord willing... Koen, of course, was upset (just a little) that he did not have a sign. I love you Koen boy. There was a lot of chalk smashing and drawing and that helped Koen feel better. Balloon throwing. More Balloon throwing. Balloon Races Pizza Making Some finger paint. Found this idea at this sweet blog. And why not just chalk paint ...

Desert Diorama: FridayFavs

This wispy thing called time flies by when you're having fun. Or not. Or when your kids are sick. And this week as flown by. For all those reasons and more. Though we I did sneak in a few special moments with one of my favourite little men.     We decided to take a morning (while sister nursed a sore throat by staying in bed, listening to Adventures in Odyssey and reading) to build a desert diorama. Like most things in our life, it was pretty much a mess to begin with.     But like my mom is forever saying, "Sometimes you gotta make a mess to make a thang better." Did you hear the Southern drawl??     And tada. Something to feel good about. It's actually a desert with an oasis. Pretty brilliant, I know. Ok, maybe not but good enough for this mess of a home. And this handsome boy, he smiled big.     Cause accomplishment always feels good. Even in the small th...
