what we did today...

We did nothing exciting today. It was just a good day. The kids played...I got a ton done...not a lot of TV (a new years goal for me)

It snowed last night and the girls were super excited to get out and play. Laynie didn't last long once she fell off the tramp and got snow on her face. Sophie was bound and determined to make a snowman. She rolled all the snow in the back yard. She was getting so frustrated because Sadie kept knocking it over every time she had it perfect.
She finally got him finished and was so proud of herself!
I finally finished the valentines envelopes. I am so excited to have them. ***We start our 14 days of Love tomorrow***
I also made these cute heart bags for Sophie's teachers. We are going to fill them with goodies.
Then Daddy got home and we played soccer. Of course we had to dress up in our super hero capes and Minnie hats. Its the "uniform".


Just a great day with no major drama or stress...love it!

Week 2...

Build-a-Bear...

Grandma Debbie took the girls to Build-a-Bear in November and got the girls their cute animals. They have been attached to them ever sense. For Christmas they each got a gift card so my Mom and I headed down to get them some clothes. Of course when we got there they had to give them a bath. Each animal also needed to visit the "hospital". They had holes that needed fixing. They each picked out a few outfits and accessories. They had to dress them before we left.

Sally and Pinkie both look so beautiful in their new outfits!
I think we have a new favorite place to go!

Week 1 + ...

I'm going to keep going!

a BIG day...

Bodi and I have been wanting to get rid of Laynies passy for a loooong time. She loved it so much and if you know her well you would know that she is hard to deal with if she doesn't get what she wants. On Monday I decided that enough was enough. She is almost 3 and the dentist told us to get rid of it months ago. I cut the tips off in the morning a put one in her bed. At nap time she picked one up and said "Mom it's broken. Where's the other one?" After looking at all of them she just tossed them aside and when to bed. I was so relieved that she didn't freak out! After her nap she decided that they were all broken and should throw them away! I was so proud that I took her immediately to the store to buy a toy!
So far so good!

Week 53...

Another year done! Should I do it again? What do you think?

Christmas Adventures...

We spend Christmas Eve with the Romney/Wood side. We went to see Tangled in the afternoon...Loved It! Then we went to my Mom's to partay. We decorated cookies and read the Christmas story.
Cute little Bo
All the kids all ready for bed in their new Christmas jammies.
Christmas Day was so much fun. The girls were so excited that they could hardly sleep. Christmas morning the girls ran down stairs to see if Santa came. He did and brought them their American Girl dolls that they really wanted.
We had to have a tea party right away!
I was so excited for the girls to open these super-girl capes. I think they liked them.
The final gift from Mom and Dad were pillow pets. The girls have been begging us for them. We couldn't say no.

Later that day we made the trek down to Ephraim to spend Christmas day with the Anderson Family.
We had a super fun Christmas this year. Can't wait til next year.
