More Fun!

Have you ever done this?!
This was soooo funny!!
The kids took turns being "bandana man" and telling stories.
We laughed so hard...the kids thought it was hysterical!
The next morning before school I had to scrub the little faces off their chins!
OK....here was some more crazy fun...
Have you ever put shoes on an animal and watched them try to walk?!
Sissy got these new snow boots and she was sooo excited to try them out!!
We were all crying we were laughing so hard!
She looked like she was trying to walk through a foot of snow, picking each foot up as high as she could!
We are easily entertained arent we?!

Random February Photos...

Last weekend there was a HUGE sleepover for 3rd-6th grade girls
in our AWANA program at church.
Some of you will know G Kendall was the hostess for this event and it was awesome!!
There were 35 girls that attended and about 10 adults
(myself being one of them)
It was an action packed evening to say the least!
The girls all arrived friday afternoon right after school.
We fed them spaghetti for dinner and that was quite a task!
Then they rotated in four groups around to different events...
Spa treatments that included an oatmeal mask, parafin hand treatment
and nails painted...
They also had story time with Miss G...
Craft time making a scrapbook and also a picture frame...
Gym time to run off some energy...
A midnight hike through the woods...
An after midnight chocolate fountain with all the trimmings...
As you can tell we were VERY busy!! It was after 3:30 am before the whole house was sleeping!!
While Taylor and I were at the sleepover this is what the "3" boys
were doing...
Dad went and bought a second controller for our playstation.
I dont think he had to work to hard to keep them entertained!
They are pretty cute though arent they?!
Some of you wont know who this is...it is my brother George.
He came down from KC to visit over the same weekend as our sleepover.
I thought this was a neat picture because this is the first time the boys have sat next to him!!
They are still pretty shy around him but now that he is playing video games with them they think he is pretty cool...
he knows how to get them through the tough levels!!
Sissy can sleep in the strangest places!
I found her in the boys costume drawer...
it looks pretty comfortable doesnt it?!
Just a pic of Dingo doing what he does...
keeping an eye on things.
The cows in the next pasture like to play games with him.
Thanks for checking in with us again!






HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
Hope you all had a great day
with your loved ones.
I had 3 valentine parties to go to at school of course...
they were all great fun.
When the kids got home from school I had this
set up for them.
Some cards, a cookie and balloons.
We pretty much had chocolate and candy for dinner!!

More Snow Days!!

We've had 4-5 snow days since January.
This week it started icing early Monday morning around 7am...
then we were off Tuesday and Wednesday.
The kids love to play "home school" on snow days.
This picture is during our "lunch time".
It is also fun because they get to go to school in their pajamas!
Here they are doing an art project together.
They had cut pictures out of magazines and were putting them on this
paper to make a big picture.
Remember the storms I told you about in the last post?...
In this picture you can see our large spruce and how it got blown over.
We should be called "crooked tree ranch"...
All of our trees our leaning!!
This is a picture of our new barn during a snow storm.
I thought it was kind of a neat picture.
