Lovin' his cars

This is pretty much how Aaron spends his days

Spring is Springing

This past week the weather has been so nice, on Sat. it was
almost 70!! Even though it has cooled some, it has been a nice
week, for which I am very thankful. Today for the first time
in a loooong time I took the kids on a stroller/bike ride. It's
amazing what some fresh air can for this mama! I feel like a
new woman.
On Sat. the girls decided that they wanted to wash the van, I
couldn't resist a few shots of their efforts.




Helper dude


Greta was inside the glass door looking out as I sneaked out
for a moment. It was so cute to watch Aaron talking to her
though the glass. Check out his reflection in the window (and
her reaction!) Lots of love going on there!!

When you are making homemade baby food that you
should never push "MIX" without the lid on!

Family Dinner

Last night I was able to help my mom serve a meal at her house.
She had all of my dad's siblings and spouses over. All but 2 were
there so it was a gang of 18! My mom does a great job of making
everything look so nice. It was really fun to help and see all my
aunts and uncles whom I have not seen in a long time.
I'm bummed that my picts turned out yellow. If I was smarter with
my camera I would know what to do to fix it. I'll get there...

Here is the table. My mom has tons of these pretty glasses, which
she calls peanut butter glasses. I guess when she was a kid that
is what peanut butter came in! Now they are collectables.


Nice shot of your bald head, dad.




Thanks, Shannon for keeping the kiddos so I could go!!

Snow Day

I have been wishing and wishing for one last big snow before
spring comes. Well, yesterday I got my wish! It snowed a good
5-6 inches, for sure the most we got around here all year. Well, it
wasn't quite all I had hoped for. I was hoping for a whole morning of
peace and quiet while the kids played outside...
About 10 minutes after they went out, the following awaited me at the
front door. Apparently he did a face plant in the snow.

I was a good mama and made some cookies while they were playing
