A Random Warm Day...Hopefully nearing the end of winter!!!
Warm enough to even hang out some laundry! Yeah! No more line drying in the basement!
Warm enough for the girlies to eat their lunch outside!
Do you see the snow in the background? Still not quite spring yet, but it is getting there! Today it was about 50 degrees out so definitely warm enough without coats on. We even took a bike ride and it was lovely. Hopefully the spring weather continues!

Room Updates...
A sign in my room. And some flowers...fake, of course, because I can not seem to keep any thing green alive inside my house. And if you can't read the envelope, that is an early birthday card from Ambry. It has now been sitting there for a month. :) That girl is on top of things I tell you!
Pictures of my kidlets hanging in my bedroom. So sad, but those are the first pictures I have actually hung in my room since we have lived here. We have lived here for over 6 years. I am that undecisive about what to hang. Horrible, but true.
A close up of my lovelies.
The living room wall. LOVE it! Enough said.
Now I'm off to paint some more doors. I'm telling you, one of these days I will have a bedroom door again! It has only been a couple of months without one. :)

"Is it summer yet Mommy?"
You can't see the snow out the window, but it is there...along with Caleb's air compressor...but it is out there still. Poor honey can't wait for flip flops and bathing suits, just like her mom. Well, not the bathing suit part, but at the least the flip flops!

Delicious Pineapple!
From this...
...to this...
...to this.
Golden, delicious pineapple all stored up and ready to be eaten at a later to be determined date. So worth the citrus sores on the hands! Yummy!

HUGE snowstorm of 2011...a little late with pics, but still cool to see :)
The girls and Caleb on the back deck. Caleb was literally holding Piper up because she kept sinking down into the snow up to her waist and couldn't get out. :)
Piper sitting on the snow pile that is currently our driveway.
The snow was literally waist high when we started shoveling it. Crazy!
Uncle Gerrit stuck in our driveway. Check out Piper in the background! That is snow that she is standing on!
And one of Ambry doing the same. Almost looks like she is standing on Uncle Gerrit's truck!
Uncle Gerrit did finally get unstuck but it took Caleb's big work truck to pull him out. :)

Remodel continued...
Wow! 2 weeks of self-imposed distance from the internet and there are suddenly over a thousand emails to go through, tons of pictures to edit, and facebook updates galore. Of course, I can do without all the facebook updates, because if I see one more misspelled word, I just might scream. What are the schools doing to kids these days?? Good grief!
Our house is coming along nicely though. All of the wood floor is in now and we are waiting on getting doors painted and hung, trim primed, painted, and put back on just in Kobe Dean's room. The girls room is pretty much all done except for pictures hung. The same with our room and the living room. Now it is on to touch ups and cleaning up the huge mess. Super fun! Here are a couple pics of the girls room all finished.
Here is a random pic of the hall way as Caleb was finishing putting the flooring in. I still need to paint the trim around the bathroom door and the window in there. Boo!
I have lots more pics to come! So stay tuned. :)
