Excuse me, it's the last day of February?

...and I have not blogged at all about February. This month should not pass with out a mention of Valentines day. The kids worked hard on their valentines and signed all 18 valentines by themselves. Drew of course chose star wars theme, and Mickey Mouse clubhouse for Lilly. They were homemade, with a 4 year olds touch, and they were very proud of their creations. (no picture below so be warned)

Nana and Boppa filled us with love and calories as Lilly and Drew made 24 vday cupcakes with sprinkles and lots of pink frosting. We enjoyed them (and shared them) for many days after vday.



Can you FEEL the sugar in this next picture?





An another note for February, Todd was away for valentines day, helping out at our church's youth snow camp, but did not forget to leave a secret-hidden gift for me. The will power was so strong by Lilly and Drew that literally as Todd was pulling out of the driveway, they yell, "mommy...mommy...there is a present from daddy under Drew's bed. let's go get it"

My type of kids.

Wintersong 2011







So much fun sledding!! We started out as beginning just in our backyard, but graduated (or got bored) to bigger and better hills.


Now that will give us some speed!


Up the wooden hill....


Ready with Daddy to tackle the big one.


Stop growing up please Drew


A rare picture with my little ones


Waiting her turn and very excited for the her turn to fly


Hooked in and ready for take off


Flying high


Where is Drew you ask? It was so sad, but Drew stayed in that line (probably 25 minutes sitting and waiting) and right as it was about to be his turn, I look over and he is crying and saying his head hurts. And sure enough......fever was present and he really did not feel well at all. So next year, Bigness will get a shot at this!
