cocoa

Cocoa just isn't nearly as good if it isn't over flowing with whipped cream, marshmallows, and all over your face when you're finished.

snow day

We had snow last Thursday and I am ready for another snow day!  We had popcorn for dinner, tons of coffee and cocoa, reading, and movies.  We ended up with 3 whole inches of snow- which is a lot in my city!

Reading

Reading...one of my most favorite things to do.  My oldest is a reader, my youngest can't read yet but already loves books.  I'm still working on my boy.  He loves stories.  He has an unbelievable imagination.  But to sit still long enough to finish a book... well he really does try!

Popcorn

I'm not a writer and trying to find things to say about these photos is a challenge for me!  Somehow I have to let the photos speak for themselves.  We eat popcorn 3-4 times a week, so I'm sure I'll have many more photos like this throughout the year.

Another year...

Happy Birthday to my beloved.

BIG

She might not *really* know how to play minecraft, or read, or write stories... but by golly she will try!

Play time!

It's another day-in-the-life kind of blog!  I missed the first few weeks of January so I'm playing catch up.

Often the kids play together but sometimes they just want to do their own thing.  

Frances will play with *any* dolls- even G.I. Joe.

I love that sweet face!

Lover of all cats.
