Still having fun in the snow!!

I thought this picture was so funny!! That is Ryker on the left, we don't have a lot of extra boy stuff laying around so he ended up looking like a little Valentine on Valentines day. We got to go sledding this week for family night. It was a lot of fun. This was my kids first time ever sledding. We always have babies and we don't want to take them out in the cold. But this year no more babies...HOORAY!! Olive didn't want to leave. It was dark when we went sledding and my pictures didn't turn out very good so I didn't post any. I'm sure we will go again.

Valentines day

Valentines day is not my favorite holiday. I was really excited for it this year for some reason. I did a lot of heart hair do's so maybe that is why. I had a lot of fun helping Tuff make his valentine box. They had a contest at school and I thought his box turned out adorable!!! He won the award for the most fun box. I knew valentines day was going to be a busy day so I celebrated on the thirteenth. My day could not have been any funner. We surprised Nicole at school with a bunch of balloons. I think mostly this year I celebrated my love of being a mom. I really enjoy driving my kids back and forth to school and that day I loved cooking too. I made heart shaped pizza and heart shaped bread sticks for dinner and for dessert I made heart shaped sugar cookies with a red heart candy on the top just like my mom used to make and miniature cup cakes all decorated different. Then on valentines day all the grandkids were invited to a party at my parents house. They made valentines for Grandma Bonnie and we took them to her and they made necklaces at Grandma Bonnie's house.

Ice skating

Tuff's class took a field trip to the ice skating rink. This was Tuff's first time ice skating. He did such a good job.

6 more weeks of winter

I think I can handle 6 more weeks of winter as long as it doesn't last as long as last year. I have serious spring fever and I can't wait to start my garden this year. I've been thinking of all kinds of ideas for indoor gardens so I can get a really early start. We'll see...I've almost got Jason talked into building me a greenhouse. We still haven't had a chance to go sledding this is about as close to it as we have got so maybe six more weeks will give us a chance to do that and hopefully go skiing.
