After Christmas and New Year's was done I took down the decorations and put up our snowflake decorations. I then found the kids camping out on the stairs and when I asked them all why they excitedly replied so they could lay under the snowflake lights! I guess next year I'll find them a safer place to hang!
Whitney was gifted her cousin's collection of ponies for Christmas and they had some crazy hair so Whitney & I spent a day doing a pony salon. I was pretty impressed with the results!
Poor Tucker was just getting over the cut on his forehead and then ran into the coffee table and game himself another scar on his face!!
The weather was SO cold in January! We went to the movies and tried other indoor activities to get us out of the house.
I did the mystery reader one Friday and I came dressed up as "Fancy Nancy" and read the Fancy Nancy books. I knew the girls would love it, but I was surprised when all of the boys were just as excited! Whitney's teacher declared me the best mom ever. That made me feel good, but my kids make it easy, they love all the stuff I do and it encourages me to do more.
Our kid's main Christmas gifts came a few weeks late, but they were just as excited to get them late!
We took the Wheelers up to the cabin for the weekend and went to Lakeside Lodge while the cabin warmed up. The lodge and it's grounds were so decked out with lights, it was fun!
Birthday Boy!
John started digging this hole and Vic & Tommy finished it into a tunnel. I wish I had taken a picture of John and Vic snowmobiling. John taught Vic how to really explore and climb on a snow machine and Vic was in heaven!
I got called to be an activity days leader so for my first activity we painted owls and hearts for Valentine's Day. I am so sad to not have my visiting teaching calling, but I'm sure I'll love this one as well. I have a cute group of girls.
