Snow Days
Who says that Gingerbread houses are only for Christmas time? The girls asked to make some today and I thought why not? We had lots of Graham crackers and royal icing is REALLY easy with Meringue powder. This was a GREAT way to use up the leftover Valentine candy. :)
Some Fun Random Pics
I am just going to type everything at the beginning. I don't know why my text is always messed up. Ideas?
Happy Winter everyone. How are you fairing at this time of year? We are just chilling and having fun. I am so enjoying this stage of each of my kids. Jessica is in Kindergarten and loving it. I love helping in the classroom and doing homework with her. Her teacher is FANTASTIC!!! We had some fun with curls yesterday and her hair is still remarkably curly today. (These were from yesterday)
The picture in our car was after Devin's birthday at my parents. This is my favorite way to arrive home which is why we always bring pajamas and toothbrushes wherever we go at night.
Kelsi waiting for church
The night before- I still LOVE hearing my Dad read stories. The inflections and timber of his voice are so familiar and calming.
Kelsi just chilling and doing her "homework."

This is a really cool website my sister-in-law Robyn just told me about. Right now you can order their patterns for FREE. :) I like Free. :)
So I should probably update
Here are some fun pictures to show what is going on in our lives at the moment. (Tami- thanks for encouraging me to update...) Does anyone know how to fix the annoying text issues? That is one reason I have not been blogging as much. I don't like how the text goes down the side.
This picture is out of focus, but I love it. This pretty much describes our life at the moment. :)
I love that my kids are getting to be quite helpful in the kitchen. I was trying to get all kinds of things ready to take to Thanksgiving dinner and the girls shaped the rolls for me. :)
Kelsi decided that Devin's overalls were in fact hers.
Jessica LOVED thanksgiving dinner. She just kept eating and eating. This isn't the best picture, but she is sure growingl up fast.
We have a very happy little 11 month old boy. And messy, but that is another matter...
This is Kelsi at 15 months. The Mischievious grin runs in the family.
Kelsi and I made our family in snowmen after we dropped Jessica off on the bus. It stunk that the snow had so many leaves in it, but it was great packing snow. She is kissing the snowman. Afterwards, she was really cold and hungry and could not decide whether she should cry or smile.
And Devin has started...
Halloween!!! (Finally)
Here are some pictures finally from Halloween. The girls were Princesses and Devin was a spider inspired by his chosen method of crawling (hands and feet). We had lots of fun. :)
Alison Gainer got me started. She found 5 yard bolts of fabric at Walmart for $5, but by the time I got there they were ony $4 and the pink was only $2.50. How could I resist? Thanks Alison for getting me started and making dresses with me (She made an amazing Belle for her daughter), Project Runway for giving me courage, my childhood dreams for inspiration (and fine- Disney), and my sweet girls for giving me a reason and for being patient with me when I turned them into dress forms. :)
