The Little and Big Moments

 We are just wrapping up a four day self prescribed weekend.

We had to take advantage of all the snow we got.

So we headed up to the mountains.

 Everyone else skied while Cabub and I hung out.

Poor Cabub, he wanted to ski so badly.

And he was so tired.

Fourth kids have to be flexible.

 Then we did a little CSI for Sci-Fri

(fingerprinting, substance identification, animal track identification).

We love Jackie.

She makes everything so fun and always brings a treat to share.

After Sci-Fri, we headed to the pool, and then to a trampoline park with friends.

I love being a mom.

I love being there for the little and big moments.

What a thrilling adventure and marvelous opportunity.

I'm Going to Brag a Little

We have this whole document memorized.

 I am so proud of my kids.

I love this document.

I learned so much memorizing it.

Garden Fresh

On Sunday, we used up the last of our 2014 garden harvest.

We made it until March 1st.

This year, we have plans to expand the garden and add some new veggies into the mix.

I'm so excited to dig in the dirt.

Saturday's Outing

Sometimes I want to ask my kids...

Do you know how lucky you are?

Wrestling

 Wrestling has been so great for Daniel.

It is a tough workout,

but what boy doesn't love wrestling.

 Poor Daniel, he is so tall, he always ends up wrestling the older kids.

But it is good to be the small fish in the big pond.

It turns you into the big fish.

When we wrestle at home,

he is the big fish in the little pond.

Snow Graffiti

We secretly visited Dad's work.

We found his car.

And in the snow in front of his car, we painted

"Reserved for #1 Dad"

Littered with Memories

 I love how our yard is littered with footprints.

And if you look very close,

you will notice chicken tracks.

Our kids are "training" the chickens.

It's not working out so well.

 I love that there are about 98723487623 bunny holes spattered throughout the yard.

And watching our kids play king of the igloo,

or try and help Caleb climb to the top of the snow mountains...

....is hilarious.

And check out that sunset!
