Chicks!!

Have I mentioned that we have chickies?!?! We were surprised when one of our hens was already sitting on a clutch of eggs. We had planned to wait for spring weather before trying to have chicks, but this hen had other plans. She’s been an attentive mama and we have 9 chicks that are half […]

Adeliza is 9!!!

Adeliza had many of her favorites today: pinwheels and salami and cream cheese rolls for lunch, ice cream sandwiches at school, and flowers and macaroons at home after school.

Celebrating Adi Early

We had fun celebrating Adi early tonight. I bought her lots of fun baking stuff, and she opened them while the Superbowl game played in the dining room (as we don’t have a usable living room right now). After she opened the gifts, I walked into my room and Azri is stuffing a Lego set […]

Watching Home Movies and Reminiscing

We had such fun watching old home movies this evening. A favorite was watching as my oldest was 2 1/2 holding her 2 week old sister on my bed and watching that poor baby getting flopped all over the place. All while my 1 1/2 year old rolled around on the bed. My husband pointed […]

Christmas Sweetness

On Friday, December 23rd … “Today is our Christmas and I already am reminded of how blessed I am.

I wrapped […]

Merry Christmas Eve

Merry Christmas Eve from us to you.

Planted!

First thing one does on New Year’s Day is undecorate and drag the dying Christmas Tree out of the house, considering the fire danger. But kids could not leave her just sitting there on the old wood pile.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Soccer Fun

We had a lot of fun this afternoon playing soccer as a family.  The girls are really looking forward to starting outdoor soccer this summer, so Trevor thought we should start practicing. :-).

Azri’s Latest Hair Cut

So, early into my shift at work today, I get the following text and picture from Trevor. Ava on the loose.   I arrived home at dinner and asked Ava if she got in trouble. She said yes, but I didn’t ask Trevor how he responded.   Later, Avalina told me that she cut his hair […]

Women’s World Cup Final and Hair Cuts!

After going to Chipotle with Trevor’s parents, we all spent the afternoon together. Recently, Adeliza cut a little of her own hair, so I asked if when Oma cuts my hair she’d like to help cut it.  I explained that she only has permission to cut hair with special haircutting scissors and with Oma.  So, […]
