First Day of WW points plus

This is what I had for dinner tonight. It was really yummy.

Baked Potatoe with spray butter, salt,pepper and a dash of ranch, Worcestershire chicken and yes those are veggies. I choked them all down and gave it my best shot but I really don't like broccoli and cauliflower.

I did end up going over my points only because my manager bought us pizza for lunch today and that is my weakness. But I thought today was much better than I have been eating.

Caitlyn is sitting next to me eating my leftover ice cream cake from DQ, oh man it looks so good. I think I am ready for bed it's the best way not to eat.

When the sun comes out...

Evan saw the sun today and thought it was a great to swim. I tried to reason with him but he had his heart set on swimming so like a good mom I will humor him...

Beautiful Day

Cleaning out the pool and filling it up.

Then of course the swimsuit

1st try.. Yes, I said 1st try.

It's cold, I want out

 

WWAAAA... I am cold. I want to go in.

Mom said, "Now Evan are you going to listen to me when I tell you it's too cold to swim?"

Evan said, " Yes, I will listen too you."

Here is the 2nd try...(within about 30 seconds of the 1st try.)

Can you see the shiver in him.

Once more, I am out of here. (no that is not snow on the side of the pool, that is soap from cleaning it.)

Now he is really done. He got dressed and had a picnic lunch on the living room floor.

The joys of being 3 and very stubborn. Always wanting to do the things we want to not what were told. I guess this is a lesson for life.

John 14:23-24“Jesus replied, “If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. He who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.”



Family Game Night

The game pieces are Blue(Felicia), Red(Jeremy) and Purple(Caitlyn)...

Jeremy said, "we should play with all primary colors" and I said, "but Blue and Red make Purple". Jeremy said, "that's ironic Blue and Red make Purple and me and mommy made you (to Caitlyn)".

We thought that was funny and so true. See how when you put two great colors together you get an even more beautiful color.

I just love spending time with the family playing games and talking together. It is some really special time to all of us.

My Birthday!!!

This year I am 33. I had a really great birthday. We went to Paraiso for lunch and came back to my house and played games. John, Joy, Bill, Karen, Shaley and Missy even came up from Oregon just for the day and of course Jeremy, Caitlyn and Evan were there too.

The Logo Game. It is so much fun. Lots of trivia. Jeremy is the Grand Master (that's what he calls himself anyway).

Yummy ice cream cake from DQ. Evan is helping blow out the candles.

opening presents from the kids and Jeremy.

I got a calculator (mine just died and it was from when I was in high school) and I got a mini organizer. I also got an Amazon gift card, Michael's gift card, lots of flash drives (for all my pics), snow shovel and oddly enough I got a toilet seat (apparently I needed a new one).

 

An extra special gift from one of my best friends Cheri. A collection of Studio Calico scrapbooking stuff and sweetheart candies my favorite.

I had a really great day. Thanks to all my friends and family.

Project Life

This box is huge. It is big enough for a microwave but that is what my project life stuff came in. Evan can fit in the box with the lid closed and still have room.

All I got was one small box and a pack of 12X12 paper. I think they could have saved a tree with this one.

This is so random

So I thought since there is always a theme to the blog today there would not be. It is just a random few days of things to do.

First these crazy's had crazy hair/hats/bull horns??

Then the Dragon Happy Napper needed a pirate hat? Okay whats next.

Jumping. Evan is complaining that his knee hurts today. I wonder why.

Hiding under the spiderman couch on the sofa.

Drawing tessellations

A huge salad for dinner. YUM!

Hope you all enjoyed a couple of random days doing random things.

Another Day of Snow: see what we did

ANOTHER DAY OF SNOW

 This is what we did:

Looked out at the beautiful snow

Measured it

Had a funny face pancake breakfast

Yummy!

After lunch Evan had a sucker

Lunchtime

Played in the snow. We collected icicles and Cailtyn and Evan had a shop where they were engraving snow.

Spaghetti Tacos for dinner

Took our walk around the block and by the park.

Made Snow Ice Cream (Thank you Mobley family for the recipe)

It was a little too sweet for our taste. Maybe less sugar would have been good. But is was fun and worth trying.

This is what mommy did after the kiddos were in bed

Before...

After...

Not perfect yet but alot better. Hey look there is a table under there!!! I might actually be able to start a project and find where it is.
