Need To Blog...

I really need to blog...I feel like I have no time now that I have been working from home. I need to get my new schedule down pat and make some time for me! I have some great photo's to edit and share. At least I have still been picking up my camera and taking pics.

Must Blog, Must Blog, Must Blog...

My Sweet Sweet Valentines...

Happy Valentines Day...

We had such a wonderful day today! While the kids were at school handing out valentines I was busy at home preparing for our own special valentines celebration. Since we were young loves Travis and I have this tradition of getting Chinese take out and staying in. This has been going on for about 14 years or so. I love it now as I can take celebrating this special little day to the next level. I made the kids super cute valentines to hand out to friends. I surprised them with some cupcakes and chocolate and a little something extra to say I love you and how proud they make me. We had a delicious Chinese dinner and ended the night with a movie. With all the hugs, kisses and I loves you tonight, I couldn't have asked for a better day!

We made marshmallow pops for snack today

A little DSI play before school

Scarlett had a tea party for daddy, mommy and her. Not Ronyn cause she never liked him that day!

YES we are a rock band family. We get so into we just have to dress up! I must say the video is way better than the photo :)

I know I have not posted in awhile but lately I have enjoyed looking at other people's blogs and not keeping up with my own. We also have been a very sick family. We have had lots of missed school days, but lots of cuddly p.j. days! I am happy to say we are on the mend (I hope I don't jinx us by writing that)! We have also had an incident with chocking and a little girl who was afraid to eat for about a week and half...So stressful! I am also happy to say that she is back to eating but I am unhappy to say that she will probably never eat broccoli again :( The pictures posted are just some random ones. Things that we have been doing to keep our selves busy as this really weird winter passes us by. I must say today was a beautiful day! I took Scarlett for a bike ride to see if we could spot the Biebs but it turned out that it was just his daddy in our small town. Oh well maybe next time!

Way To Early But...

These are just so cute! I have started making Scarletts Valentines to hand out to her classmates. We searched Pinterest and we found "Love Juice". She really wanted to make these as it will make Ethan fall in love with her and her eye's will turn into hearts. Her words exactly :) All it is is a bottle of water with a single serving of kool aid and a straw attached. We wrapped the bottle in some wrapping paper and printed off some free printable Valentines from the web. Their is so many to choose from! The reason I started early was I have to make 40 Valentines and then some. Also I thought these would take a lot more time than they have. I am just not happy with Scarletts choice of straw. I hope I can find some solid pink ones to make it more matchy! Ronyn is still undecided on what he would like to hand out, but I guess he has lots of time to decide!

Just A Little Scarlett

and her daddy! These two were being so cute this morning I had to snap some pictures.

Boys

There has been a lot of talk in this house about bums, farts, girls, video games and hockey. It is a total boys house these past two days! I had my nephew Maven for the night (he is the one in the picture with the rice crispy on his tongue) and it has thrown the balance of this house way off. It has been a blast though as Ronyn has had someone to do boy stuff with. The best was sledding. My sweet little Scarlett who helps balance us out has been at her Nana's for two days watching movies and baking cookies. I am glad that she is there as sometimes when the boys get together she becomes the target for them to pick on. I hope when she comes home that she doesn't mind that I got rid of her cluttered room and reorganized a few things. This little girl hates change but her room was getting out of control with the Christmas mess and it was driving me crazy!

Cheers To 2012.

My at symbol won't work so I can't sign into my photo editing program. It is the only button that will not work on my computer....how strange! I know I have not blogged in a loooooooooong time but it is a new year so I am going to start with my 4th fresh start! I need lots of fresh starts. I get busy and I always forget to do the things that I love to do! For my resolution for 2012 I plan to do things that I enjoy and try to remember to do them! I am also going to enjoy the moment and not worry about what is ahead. I have had a year of anxiety and I am going to rid my self of it and enjoy now and not worry to much about later as now is what is really important!

Here is a picture of my growing kids. I like to call them my babies but I get told all the time that they are kids and not babies :) One day they will realize that they will ALWAYS be my babies!

~Cheers to 2012~
