A Picture Update

It's Friday and a long weekend and I couldn't be more grateful.  It has been A WEEK.

On Monday the girls and I took Luna on a winter adventure.

On Tuesday I took Luna for a sunset romp and then Maya and I went for a treat while Cal was a dance.

On Wednesday I took the afternoon off and went to visit Hanna, Mitchell and Shambles.  Later Chris and Maya read together.

Yesterday morning at 5am I walked Luna and IT WAS SO COLD. 

Today, with the impending snow storm, we all got home early and went out in the snow. Later on we had a movie night. And Luna was high maintenance, as per usual.




Have a great weekend!  I'll be back on with the wrap-up on Monday night!

Timehop Tuesday

Today we have toothless 1st graders!

Weekend Wrap-Up: Happy Birthday G-ma!

First up...HAPPY BIRTHDAY G-MA!! Here’s an early a Timehop to celebrate. Hope you have a wonderful day!

This weekend was easy breezy. Yesterday there was some shoe shopping, STEM projects, Luna time and vegetable curry making. The girls and Chris went over to friends’ house for the Vikings game and I got a long and lovely afternoon to myself.

Today after church we headed to Boom’s house and played with Lucy! 

Her baby sister is due this month...and we are all very excited. 

This afternoon Chris took Callie skiing for the first time! Fourth graders can apply to get a free ski pass, so he applied a couple weeks ago and they went today.  She LOVED it!

While they were doing that, Maya, Luna and I had a winter adventure as well.

Have a lovely week!

TGIF!

I didn’t take many pictures this week. Here’s what I got, and half of them were taken by others: A little bit of Baby Mitchell, a little bit of crazy Luna, a little bit of games with Pa!

Tonight we had a Gosselin family dinner! We had made arrangements for G-ma to pick up the girls from school but I left work a little early so I passed her leaving for pickup while I was getting to their house. So she told me to go get wine. So I did! And then a bit later I got this cute picture. 

We had a fun and crazy family night!

And we got our first whole group picture with Mitchell (minus Shambles)!

And we had to do a goofy one too, of course!

Poor Luna is just sitting there wondering why she has to deal with all these crazy humans.

I’ll leave you with something that I found online and made me laugh out loud because it is 100% me and Chris’ personalities and what would happen if we were split up on a plane. 

Chris has been in SO MANY weddings. LOL.

Have a great weekend!

Timehop Tuesday

Happy Tuesday!

Weekend Wrap-Up

Happy Sunday Folks.

Here are a few pics I forgot to post from Friday.  We found a giant snow hill (thanks to plows) behind our house. They did not seem to care that they didn't have snow pants on.

On Saturday we went over to to Boom's house for one last hurrah with Mari and Josh.  Lucy wore the Olaf hat I found in our winter gear bin and I couldn't stop taking pictures of her cute head.

Then we all went to lunch!



The girls had a sleepover with G-ma and Pa last night so Chris and I could go to my staff holiday party.



On the way home we got ice cream.



Today we went over to our friends Josh and Alison’s house for the Vikings game. Chris juggled apples, the kids played a lot of weird games that looked like just lying down and the Vikings pulled out the win in OT!

Tonight we played some Mario Party before bed. The girls are both not excited to go back to school tomorrow (and I am feeling similarly if I’m honest) but it was a good distraction for all of us.

I’ll leave you with some videos from the weekend. The first few minutes were the girls taking videos on their own during quiet time and they are a bit hilarious...click here!

Have a great week!

A Picture Update

Ugh it is Friday already!  These two weeks have flown by but also Christmas seems like FOREVER ago.  So here is what we were up to this week.

Monday: One of the neighbor boys came over in the morning.

Then we played in the snow and played games (with no help from Luna).



Tuesday: We met Boom and Auntie Mari for lunch!

Then Cal made Rock Cakes from her Harry Potter cookbook. She is really getting in to baking.



Dan, Hanna and Mitchell came over for New Years Eve!

And Shambles too!

We played games, including Mario Party, which was HILARIOUS. Hanna and I had fun giggling and I snuggled sweet little Mitchell.



Mitchell was awake after his feeding so we got some good pictures of the cousins!



Then it was time for more games- UNO! And around 8:15pm we did the countdown and threw confetti.



Wednesday: 2020 started out with a beautiful sky!

We spent New Years over at G-ma and Pa's house with them and Auntie Cat.  We did more playing games and playing in the snow.


Thursday: I didn't do a good job of taking pictures yesterday.  The girls wanted to try out the treadmill in the morning.

And later we went to lunch with Boom, G-ma, Auntie Mari, and Auntie Cat and then the girls went to hang out at Chris' office so we could go see "Little Women."  It was SO GOOD.  But I didn't get any photographic evidence.

Friday: We went over to see Boom and Auntie Mari this morning and went sledding!

And then Boom made cheese art for lunch.

Have a great weekend!
