SNOW 2012!!

Feb 20, 2012...1st chance to play in the snow...1st snow of the year!  Just wish I didn't have to work.  Hailey and Lindsey had fun at Pop & Mimi's in the snow.  Sledding and making a snow man, they put their creativity into good use...

And when I got off from work, Hailey wanted me to go "sledding" with her...bad idea!  I haven't been on a sled in a loooong time and especially after the snow had iced over, then making the decision to slide down my parents hill in the same track they made earlier...well, it just wasn't smart...we'll leave it at that.  BUT, noone got hurt, thank goodness!

                                Before the Crash: Happy & Excited!



                                Riding...rather fast on ICE!: Trying to slow down...


                                The Crash:  :(.... Realizing that was not a good idea!

                                Scrapes & "I'm Sorry's" to a precious 5  year old...

But... "Frosty"(as Lindsey say's "Frossy") the Snowman makes everyone feel better!  I love Hailey's idea of the leaves for the ears & hair...or hat, either way, it was creative!

(and my dad was a great photographer!)

Finalized! ~ Hailey's Ballerina Bedroom Redo

I am totally singing the  HALLELUJAH CHORUS !  After months of contemplating Hailey's bedroom redo and realizing after I started that this was harder than expected with tons of DIY projects...it's DONE!!   Well, at least for now.  Possible that I will continue with cosmetic procedures later, but for now...here it is... Just a walk down memory lane... even though it's totally embarrassing with overflow of clutter in which I strongly dislike... Oh my...look at the bedskirt, lol!  Felt a tad bit sorry for Lindsey who thought she belonged with her favorite stuffed animals in the hammock.... But anyway, after painting her walls pink and hand painting sillhouettes of ballerinas...it was on!  I have been so greatful that God placed the perfect people in my path to finish Hailey's room with one of the Dance mom's, Jenna Pratt who exchanged a ballerina comforter set plus pillows and curtains for a video baby monitor...absolutely perfect! ...

A little bit of sunshine and new endeavors

The weather is warmer and the girls love our backyard paradise. I'm so grateful the both enjoy imagination play, hand-me-down swing sets and space to roam. Hailey has been enjoying her gymnastic class, tricks at home and trying to give me gray hairs....                                                     These girls love their trampoline!                                      Some of their made up games...surprise tag from the great down under...                    Always time for a picture while sitting and playing on the trampoline.                                        They got the biggest kick out of the static ele...

Busy Weekend ~ blowing noses, birthday dinners & books!

Poor Lindsey still has the "yuckies"...thank goodness tomorrow is her 18month check-up.  Maybe( as much has I hate medicine ) they will give her a small dose of an antibiotic to kick the "yuckies" out of her system.  I know she would appreciate it and would be so grateful to never...ever see the nose suction again...ever!  I even thought it would calm her nerves to let her take it out on one of her baby dolls, but she still cringes and oh boy, she's a fighter!   Thank goodness Hailey enjoys helping me clean...after countless times washing hands, scrubing table tops, vacuuming and dispersing 1/2 of a can of lysol into the air...I think we're making progress...I think... We were able to go out a few times for Chris' and my mom's birthday dinners...Hibachi & the Home Place!  Even my Uncle Fred came in town to go with us!  We came back to my house afterwards to give mom her birthday blessing.  If you're wondering where Chris is...he decided...
