The sky was so pretty and yet weird this morning.

Miranda February 11, 2010

G's breakfast. I wish I liked Oatmeal...for some reason, I just can't get into it!?

Maggie February 11, 2010

Tools I use to get through a day at work... either it's an easy fix, needs a little magic, or a lot of patients!

Jen February 10, 2010

Emily got her first shots. I felt so bad for her.

Marla February 10, 2010

This cross was the only thing that we noticed that got knocked over from the earthquake that we had this morning. I have a shelf with crosses on it in my kitchen. This cross that we got from New Orleans had fallen off of that shelf.

Miranda February 10, 2010

It might be hard to see, but this is some of the Earthquake damage that we had. We also have cracks in our basement floor (which I was told that they would have come at sometime with the settling of the house). What a day!

Maureen February 10, 2010

Finally coming inside after school, then sledding, then playing outside for an hour with Shelby.

Miranda February 9, 2010

I'm trying to ripen an avacado faster and thought this brown bag trick was going to work? It's taking a long time though...

Maureen February 9, 2010

Coming in from shoveling, while it was still snowing & blowing outside.

Marla February 9, 2010

Saw a lot of these today.

Betty February 9, 2010

Maggie gets to pick the color of her floppy hat...

Maggie February 9, 2010

I've been tucking these in my arm pits for a week and it still doesn't seem to fix the problem... hum... (insert sad face here)

Margie February 9, 2010

9 PM and it's still coming down. Jesse is still hoping to get a snow day out of this storm.

Monday, February 8

Jen February 8, 2010

My friend came over to visit and say good-bye.

Miranda February 8, 2010

I'm so tired of getting shocked because our house is full of static! We are going to look into a house humidifier soon because it's so bad.

Maureen February 8, 2010

Oh, she does love her father! I hope she still feels this way in a few years, when she's a teen!

Marla February 8, 2010

As I was walking through the hall by the library at school today, I noticed that this was Cole's class' artwork. Cole's is the first one in this photo.

Margie February 8, 2010

Playing Barbies in the same swimming pool that her mom used. Deja vu!

Sunday, February 7

Jen February 7, 2010

couldn't pick one pic I have started packing, and I also got this cute bikini for Emily

Maureen February 7, 2010

Watching the Superbowl with a few pets

Marla February 7, 2010

Eric, Cole and I bet eachother on the outcome of the Superbowl coin toss. Cole picked "heads" and Eric and I picked "tails"...Cole is now richer.

Miranda February 7, 2010

Boys watching the Superbowl!

Donna February 7, 2010

Anybody got a file? We ate last night at Flagstone Pub in Geneva. Behind our table was a windoww sill with bars, and on the other side is a pool table where a couple was playing pool. Gianni, of course, had to get up there and study what was going on!

Saturday, February 6

Jen February 6, 2010

Janet came to visit. and Jess came over to we had a sisters night before I leave. We saw Dear John.

Marla February 6, 2010

Eric and I escaped to Milwaukee for the night (Thanks Maureen). We ate at "The Safe House", I remember Margie and Colleen talking about going there.

Miranda February 6, 2010

Napping together (G woke up when I took the picture)

Maureen February 6, 2010

They built an indoor snowman!

Friday, February 5

Miranda February 5, 2010

This is my purse...Since having G, I have hardly used it! Of course, it is all filled with baby things! : )

Maureen February 5, 2010

I love this person's yard. They also have one of those Grimace jumping things, a coin-op carousel & a big statue of a black glove. It makes me want to do something creative & artsy in our yard, too. Maybe, this spring, I will!

Marla February 5, 2010

They are roller skating in gym class. So, I snuck by the gym to get a few pictures.

Margie February 5, 2010

I'm going to hop on the bulletin board bandwagon! Mine is not quite as fancy as those school ones, but I do put up a new one each month with the kids' artwork.

Thursday, February 4

Jen February 4, 2010

Got a haircut

Miranda February 4, 2010

I was browsing through some old pictures today and found this one of chocolate cake from Portillos...yum...might have to get some tonight! : )

Marla February 4, 2010

Dylan is on the Dean's list again. It's funny to me because in high school you didn't want to go to the dean's office but in college to be on the dean's list is good.

Maureen February 4, 2010

Outside the Oprah Winfrey Show studios!

Tuesday, February 2

Marla February 2, 2010

First voting experience under his belt. They wouldn't let me take a picture as he was voting (it's not allowed).

Maureen February 2, 2010

Six more weeks...

Margie February 2, 2010

I now live in the middle of nowhere. Translation: This is the middle of nowhere. Keep out of this place. I love reading kids' writing when they are just figuring out how to do it. It is like a fun puzzle. And yes, all evening I was in the midde of nowhere and had to watch out for snakes and dinosaurs and stray dogs.

Miranda February 2, 2010

Anyone have any tips on how to clean a stove top?

Monday, February 1

Jen February 1, 2010

I went to babies r us and found these new bottles. I'm going to see if Emily likes these they are the closest things to breastfeeding since I breastfeed and bottle feed.

Miranda February 1, 2010

Guess who figured out how to open the cabinets! : )

Marla February 1, 2010

Don't forget to vote tomorrow. These are the two people that Vaughn has been helping with their campaigns...so, if you don't know who to vote for....

And, Vaughn went bowling for fun last night...Wow!!!

Margie February 1, 2010

I have this pocket chart hanging up for my child care kids. It has velcro ABC letters and pictures. Somebody (not a child care kid) wrote this. I don't know who, but I like the idea of "cozy homes."

Maureen February 1, 2010

Can we come in, now?
