Finally

So finally, for the first time since we moved to Cleveland, we went sledding. We had a blast!

Quiz Time

I found this on Jen Harvey's blog and thought it was fun. Maybe I wouldn't have thought it was so much fun if it had ended up rating me as a terrible person. Green works for me and is fairly accurate to my personality, although I'm not sure I always bring out the best in others, in fact I sometimes feel just the opposite.

What's Your True Color?

My Result: Green

You're green, the color of growth and vigor. Good-hearted and giving, you have a knack for finding and bringing out the best in people. Green is the most down-to-earth color in the spectrum — reliable and trustworthy. People know they can count on you to be around in times of need, since your concern for people is genuine and sincere. You take pride in being a good friend. For you, success is measured in terms of personal achievement and growth, not by status or position. Rare as emeralds, greens are wonderful, natural people. It truly is your color!

What are you?

A Saturday Matinee

Today we took the kids to see Wizard of Oz at a local Middle School. The production was really good and incorporated kids from elementary through high school. The play, including intermission, was three hours long and our kids where engaged the whole time. They even had a real dog playing Toto.

Tyler Lamborn is one of the kids in the picture above (2nd from the left) and he did a great job.
So if your interested in exposing your kids to a little theater arts I would definitely recommend this show. We had a lot of fun.

What Am I Thinking?

Molly and Dillon both have there own blogs now. I thought this might be a fun way to suck them into the world of blogging. Did I say that, I mean I am trying to follow the words of the Prophet and teach my kids early on to keep a journal. If any of you have kids that might be interested let them know. We'll see how this goes.

Texas

I love Austin in January. It's a nice 75 degrees and sunny. Too bad it takes the winter to get to a livable temperature. So I am posting LOTS of pictures from the trip and here they are.


My family . . . they definitely put all the fun into dysfunctional.


GG Bobbie, we love you. Oh and you got to love cousins, we're just missing one.

The newest addition to the family, Danielle, aka baby Danni.


This is us never wanting our vacation to end.



Poppy's ranch, lots of fun and an opportunity for Travis to bring out his inner cowboy.
Hey, no Brokeback jokes. I think he looks hot.


Train ride at the park and feeding the birds with Grammy.






Digging for Dino bones.

I was creeping closer and closer to get just the right picture of sweet little Dillon. Right before I snapped the shot he flung a whole shovel full of sand right into my face. Not so funny. I had sand in my hair, on my camera, down my bra, and just about every other place you can imagine.


That's all for now.
