Crazy, crazy January/February weather
The weather here has been absolutely crazy...crazy, I tell you! For example, last week Sunday, we drove to church in near blizzards and then this week Sunday it was sunny with temps near 50!
Since it had warmed up so much, Bry and Dean wanted to do some sparklers.


I just had to post this pic--ignore the messy garage and just check out Bry's outfit. Nothing says I'm stylish like wearing a tye-dye shirt with comfy shorts and winter boots. Ha! Goofy girl! :)

Check out Dean's cheesy face! He was loving those sparklers!

Oh, I am loving this weather, but I have to tell you, I am kind of missing winter. Yikes! Did I just say that? I have to say, though, that if there is one bonus to living here, it is enjoying all of the seasons, and I just don't feel like we have had a winter yet. Oh well. I guess we will just have to make do with doing sparklers in our shorts and coats. :)

Don't worry...more posts will be up in the next couple of days...we've been busy with the Thanksgiving week last week and crocheting and painting and school and...the list goes on...

Pics are from about a month ago when Dean had all of his beautiful curls still intact.

Hard at work.
This is what I get to see every day. I am so blessed!

The 3 girls who braved the very, very cold weather on the morning after Ambry's sleepover. 8:00 a.m. game...freezing winds...yeah, it was cold.

Luckily, I am a crazy hoarder and had enough hats, coats, and gloves to clothe everyone. :)

Apparently, I need to work on capturing the jump shot. I think I will have to bribe Piper to jump for me later. :)

Pure joy!

So glad Ambry has such good friends! No pics of all the tye dye fun. The dark and my camera just weren't cooperating. Not to mention, trying to take pics with 7 girls around four big buckets of dye...scary! I decided to supervise instead of try to take pics. Hope you understand.

Hope you have a "chillin' Friday"!
From Ambry



Yup, she really would sit like that with her legs up and her head just poking out of the water. Goofball! I LOVE that girl! :)

Just a few more of the kidlets...



Ambry has turned into quite the little camera poser, whereas Piper on the other hand is just a total goofball. Her posing is something totally different. She is leaning this way and that, hands on the hip, or arms folded. You name it, she tries to pose it. Oh well, that is the beauty of just taking your own pics. You know the kids personalities and even though the pic might not be someone else's idea of "perfect", it is definitely mine. I think their personalities just shine through and I love it!

The kidlets...




I managed to get some pics of them. But, good grief, is it ever difficult to get all three of them to look at the camera and smile. I was jumping all over, making weird sounds, pretty much just about anything to get them to smile. Stinkers is what they are! :) I don't know how you do it

Kobe Dean 11 mos. pics continued...


Ambry and Kobe Dean...twins! :)

And my one of my favorite pics of him. There is just something about that sweet little look he has on his face. LOVE it!

Now if I can just get Piper to take some good pics. I can't seem to get her to sit still for more than 2 seconds and even for those 2 seconds she is pulling faces or just being completely goofy. Such a stinker! And she is one that I actually need some new pics of. Oh well. With all this gorgeous weather hopefully I can persuade her to go and sit in the sun for me. :)

Reading Time


Every day Ambry takes Kobe Dean to her room to read books to him. It is the sweetest thing. I happened to have enough initiative to actually grab my camera and snap some pics of them together the other day. Look at those faces! Adorable!

My Little Helper



Ambry is the biggest help ever. She took it upon herself to read books to Kobe so I could get lunchy ready for everyone. She kept him happy and entertained. I am so thankful to have such a good helper like her! Upside to her reading out loud to him, is she is getting school done too. :)

World's Largest Cherry Pie!

Go ahead and click on the pic if you can't read it as is. Crazy how much went into this pie! All I could think was I hoped that they ate the thing. I would hate to see that many cherries go to waste! Yes, such a dork I am. :)


This was on the way back from Mackinaw Island. I saw the sign for this and Caleb obliged me and stopped. I am such a sucker for these kinds of thing. :) But at least I can say that I saw how big the world's largest cherry pie was!

Ambry's First Soccer Game!


Ambry and her friend Grace waiting out the fourth quarter.


Kobe slept so nicely in his carseat. Piper was another story. I couldn't get her to sit still for even one picture! :)

Ambry couldn't have been happier! They won their game 1-0 and she even had fun playing in the rain.

Two little readers


Ambry thought Kobe needs to "start learning while he is still little". Her words, not mine. :) So she has started reading to him so hopefully he will know all of his letters when he turns one. Quite ambitious of her, I thought.
