Winter Play

We  had a ton of SNOW this winter! The kids have had a fun time playing outside...even little Charlie enjoyed himself for like 5 min! We didn't have a sled, and I was too cheap to buy one, so we turned to the next best thing...my big metal kitchen bowl! Perfect for little, tiny bums. We had fun making snowmen, and painting the snow too!

I LOVE this little profile!

This is his face after about 5 min. of the snow and cold!

These two had a ball in the snow! On one of the coldest days I think they spent close to 2 hours
outside playing with all the little neighbor kids.



Yes...Popsicles are still a favorite at our house...even in the winter!

French toast...or should we say snow toast!

Cooking with Mommy

One of my favorite things to do is bake with my children. Yes, it is a bit messy, and hectic, and squishy in our tiny kitchen, but I love how excited they get to help and taste....they love to taste.

Field Trip

Today Jamie and I packed into our van and took the kiddos to Spokane for the day. We had a blast! The big kids loved the escalator at the mall, and went up and down, up and down...Charlie and Sydney just chilled in their strollers...we took turns going in the stores the mommys wanted to go into and that the kids wanted to go into...Jamie is such a great friend...we could talk forever...if only we didn't have so many interuptions!

Crafter Gal

Gracie has turned into her mothers daughter...a crafter gal!

 She loves to cut, glue, glitter, and

create beautiful things. 

Happy New Year!

For the last 3 years we have spent the New Year with our bestest friends the Hansen's and the Garners at the Sundloff Family Cabin in Duchesne.  It is the perfect snowy place to light a fire, play rock band, eat, drink some bubbly, eat some more, dance with Michael, play in the snow, and ring in the new year!

Christmas 2010

Our first trip home since moving to Moscow was for Christmas Break.  We stayed with grandma nanna our first night after driving in a crazy snow storm, then we spent the rest of our time staying with grandma and grandpa Sundloff.  We had such fun having Josh all to ourselves, playing with our cousins, and spending time with family and friends.  Santa came and brought magical memories and gifts for the kids...they even heard him Ho! Hoing! outside on Christmas eve.
