Random

How 'bout I just post a slew of random pictures and call it good?  I'm so wishy washy.  I kind of want to be done blogging, but I'm not doing well documenting life any other way, so I don't want to give it up quite yet.  Anyway. January was rather miserable with sickness, even though we were blessed with gorgeous weather for so much of the month.  February is looking up.  

To start, Ross built these bunk beds in the kids' closet.  I still need to paint them.


And their room looked like this for a while:


But it's coming together nicely.  I am seriously going to post when it's all done.  
Hopefully within the next week I can find time to paint.


I found this idea on pinterest.  Talk about minimal effort with maximum results!  
They loved it.


And we got our first real snow last week! Woo!  
It's gone now, but they had fun while it lasted.


And Valentine's was lots of fun too.  I hosted our preschool party, and loved decking out the house and having an excuse for lots of friends over.

Big News

Here's a family picture from over Christmas.


See that new cute girl there over on the right?  Meet Kia.  The soon-to-be newest member of the family!  Sam and Kia are planning to be married in May, and we are super duper excited.  We love her already, and can't wait for her to be a part of the family.  Congrats (a little be-lated) guys!

5th annual hilltop excursion

The wind was not our friend this time around.  Holy Cow. We were pretty limited on options for going though, since we hadn't been to Manhattan as a family in a looong time. And we were only there for the day.  I was totally not feeling up to going.  But as always, I'm glad we made the effort.  Maybe someday I'll plan better and actually use some props or something.  For now, just glad we got what we did.










Thanks Dad, for taking these for us!
