Sick days

This is how we spend our sick days.

While this was effective for awhile...it didn't last long before Trenton got really sick and bribing him with tents, tubes and other fun things quit working. So, we've been on the couch for three days. Hopefully the sun will stay out long enough for us to enjoy some of it.

Birthday Party!

We LOVE Simon!

Trenton's toys
Dancing
Flipper (his stuffed animal)
Trains
Turtles
& Family

Thanks for coming, celebrating and loving our sweet little Simon!

It's HERE...

I did it!
I finally finished our video.

Here is my warning... this is 16 minutes long!
It is broken up into sections. So, if you dare watch the whole thing, pop some popcorn and enjoy.

Christmas toys

Really... who golfs in their living room?

Christmas

Looking at the mound of gifts only made me feel like we were so spoiled!!

We made birthday cakes for Christmas Eve and after we sang songs,
we dumped all our sprinkles in all the crevices.
The cakes, not so yummy... the sprinkles, PERFECT!

To top off the holiday it snowed!!! It was beautiful, and didn't last too long. The boys were crazy for the sled, our snowman, and they had fun building a snow cave with Emile.

Thanks Shonda for the OMSI pass! We couldn't wait to go see the DINOSAUR (said with a roar)! He was just as big as we imagined.
