James got sick in my bed when he slept with me last night and then all morning he has been really tired and not like himself. He asked to take a nap on the couch. He stayed there for a long time. He started to feel better at night.

Yay! Our tickets came in the mail today! Who wants to babysit?

She decided to fill out her valentines, today. Valentines are optional for Shelby's class, so he decided not to bring any this year.

7 a.m.-It's REALLY cold out.

Miranda February 9, 2011

We didn't do much today because it was so cold out. But, we did make snowy blowy ice cream. Gianni thoroughly enjoyed it!

Pretending to be norns with honey. Norns are creatures in a video game that the kids were playing today and that Jim & I both played a long time ago.

I sent Cole over to the neighbor's house with some cookies and a gas station gift card, to thank him for plowing our driveway yesterday.

My hero of the day....Steve!...our neighbor...he came over and snowblowed our whole driveway. And, then after the snowplow came by he came back and did it again. We really owe him, I think that I'm going to make him cookies and get him a gas station gift card. Yeah Steve!!!

Maureen February 2, 2011

We were out shoveling when this guy passed by & offered to plow out our driveway. We watched as he & his friend, following him in a pickup truck, stopped at other driveways up and down our street.

These are the only eggs I will buy now. I want to do my part in not supporting animal cruelty. Today I took a nap with Juneau. He loves being close with me. I have been so tired lately.

Marla February 1, 2011

I just wanted to let whoever put these lottery tickets in the Christmas grab bag know the results. I took my time scratching them and just finished a couple weeks ago. I wasn't doing so good...3 free tickets, a $2 winner, a $5 winner and then on one of the last tickets that I scratched (the one that cost $10) I got a $100 winner!!! Thanks!

Cat nap time

Maureen February 1, 2011

We're still having fun looking through bins of photos and other memorabilia that we're finding in the basement.

Margie February 1, 2011

I tried to take a picture of the snow coming down - but it didn't turn out too well.

He is such a big boy

Marla January 31, 2011

Fell asleep while reading tonight (I guess he takes after his Dad-sleeping and still holding the book up)

Miranda January 31, 2011

Happy Birthday Mom! (I forgot to take pictures tonight when we celebrated at my parents house).

Maureen January 31, 2011

Jim found the strobe light that he had been looking for in the basement a few nights ago.

My latest obsession! Joe found them at the hospital when I had Gabriele for my late night snack! After leaving the hospital, I couldn't find them at any store! Joe finally found them at Jewel! You should try them!

Maureen January 30, 2011

We went out to Kline Creek Farm, today, to see the new baby lamb. Stopped at the creek on our way out to the barn.

Margie January 30, 2011

I went in to brush my teeth this morning, but couldn't find the sink! Eventually, I hope that we will run out of balloons.
