Let it snow let it snow


Snow is so pretty to look at when it is coming down. (Yes I know I am inside looking out and not in it) But how beautiful is God's creation

More snow fun


I could not resist taking these pictures. Jordan was sitting on the deck eating snow. He just had this look of complete concentration on his face.

Playing in the snow




Megan does not do well in the cold, so for her to actually be in it is a step in the right direction.. She decided to throw some snow at her older brother, but Caleb was not too bothered by it. And who can resist building a snow man....

Christmas Baking




Usually I spend an entire day doing all of my goodies, but this year I have broken it up over a few days. Maybe this way we will still have some left for Christmas day. I was in a delima of what to to for the day with the kids home, and I being home bound as well, I decided to make mommy's favorite goodies. Chocolate covered Ritz cracker sandwiches. The kids wanted to help so I gave them the job of making the sandwiches. They were to put Peanut Butter on a cracker and then top it off with a Ritz. They did pretty well. Caleb and I dipped them into the chocolate while Megan and Jordan napped. The mess was something else..... I am still finding PB in places I thought you could not get it there...

Fun snow days


This week had been fun for the kids as we have just a little bit snow.. I had to get a few pictures of the kids playing. Here is a before shots of how excited they were to go play. My I remind you this was at 800 in the morning... Oh well

Fun with Daddy




Tonight the kids wanted to "tustle" as Jordan would say. They got this idea, I do not know where from, but to take a flying leap off of the couch on to daddy's stomach. That did not produce enough adrenaline rush they had get a laundry basket as well, This went on for about 20 minutes or so... The good news is, no one wound up in the ER.... for the moment.

Christmas Program




We went to Caleb's Christmas program the other night and to hear him sing songs of Christmas and the true meaning just warmed my heart. It makes all of the running around I do worth it. Since Kera is in the same grade as Caleb, we had to get a picture of the two of them together.
