Love is in the Air

Dillon made his Valentines Mailbox today and he is so excited. He also wants to change his name to "Ships". Not likely.

The Last One

You know it's the last one when the typical rules don't seem to apply. Charlee is so cute, and so much fun, and she definitely gets away with a lot more than the other two did. I guess I will be the one paying the consequences for that.

Toys while she's eating (after a few tears I gave in)...

Snacks on the couch with daddy...

But look how cute she is, how can I resist?

Oh the excitement of getting a package in the mail. GG sent these great bird houses, among other things, to the kids for Valentines and they just couldn't wait to get started. I can't wait for Spring to hang them in the kids garden. It is so nice to be thought of on this Valentines Day, Thank You GG. We Love You!!!!

An Amazing Man


Quoting an unnamed poet, President Monson said: “‘Here and there, and now and then, God makes a giant among men.’ President Hinckley was such a giant – a giant of knowledge, of faith, of testimony, of compassion, of vision.”

I will miss my dear sweet Prophet,
President Gordon B Hinckley.

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.






Take this test!


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!

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.
