Beauty Pagent...

The girls put on quite the show the other day and although there was a little too much make up going on- they looked pretty cute! We got a little runway action too. Oh, Heaven help us in a few years!

Missing my Papa...

I told Dad last week that I needed a date so we planned to go on a super cold motorcycle ride yesterday because the weather was SUPPOSED to be in the 40's. When we had snow on Sunday and it stuck around on the roads for a bit AND the temp changed, I knew our ride would be out. We decided to go have lunch and hit a few stores instead. It was just what I needed, a few hours with him! Thanks Dad! I love you!

Shoes...

Roman LOVES shoes! If you leave them out, he will get them and put on a fashion show for you!

My artist...

I am a crazy Mom when it comes to keeping the art supplies away from Roman. He will draw on anything and I fear my new furniture will have perminant marker all over it if I'm not careful! With all the bigger kids able to get in my craft stuff and the girls art desk in their room, its inevitable that every once inawhile that little guy will draw all over the walls. This time he chose blue crayon and pink marker. Beautiful choice of color, but not on my wall kiddo!

Roman...

Roman and Willow get along pretty well and one of my favorite things with those two is when Roman pushes her on his toy! Willow lifts her legs up and he goes across the entire room about a million times. It is too cute!What a strong little guy!

A fun new treasure...

I have had my G-ma Arthur's sewing machine for awhile now and I finally got it out last week and figured out how to use it! It's been fun and nice to give my old machine a break after 15 years of use.It would also be fun if Roman would stop playing with all the buttons. He's relentless!

Grace gives the lesson...

We have been having a difficult time with Grace and her lying lately, so when the last eposide came with the missing quarters and the multiple lies, I said, "Thank you for finally being honest, but as part of your punishment, you need to prepare a lesson for family home evening and give it on stealing and lying. I am pretty bummed that I missed the show last night but I will have her recap it for me!

Dates with the kids...

My friend got me a TCBY gift card for my bday so I used it to take each of the kiddos out on a date the past week.We had fun and I think I'm hooked on their stuff right now! Its something I try to do often- steal one of them and force them to go places with me, but usually if there is food involved, they are happy to be seen with me! Grace and I went on Wed waffle day and it was yummy! Love you Grace.

Virginia's house....

My kids adore Virginia's new house and they have a ball every time we go over for a visit. We went last week to hang out for a few hours and the stairs were the most exciting thing!Thanks for being a great friend, we love you guys!
