My Precious Family - snugglin' on the couch!
Dad and the Boys playin' Alvin & the Chipmunks. Can you see Caleb's shiner? A couple of days before they were having a "disco" . Dad had helped them tie a flashlight to the ceiling fan. They twisted the rope and then would let it spin around and made a disco ball. It was actually a really cool effect - to go along with all of their funky dancin'! Well, Caleb decided to do it by himself and stood up in the chair and got whacked with the flashlight really hard!..A few days later he rolled his whole face up in the car window and his nose and head got stuck in the window. He was yelling Help!!, and by the time Adam got there his nose was bleeding and he was still stuck. Adam had to rescue him - how do boys come up with these things?

My awesome class! Here they are dressed up as bats for their bat play they wrote themselves. We have been learning about bats in Science, so they wrote an informational play and performed it for the other elementary classes. They did such an awesome job! I am blessed with the best class ever!
Phase One of the Snow Fort. The boys and Adam worked hard packing snow into storage tubs to make the first phase of the snow fort.
Here's the final product. Dad stayed up late to finish it. He said it was his lifelong dream to build an igloo (and it probably was). Very authentic! Jonah has plans to make a snow chair and couch. His mind is always spinning, just like his Daddy's!
Caleb takin' a peek inside. It was actually big enough inside for them to sit in. Jonah got all the way inside. Boy was he excited! We couldn't get Hannah to go in..... A little boy's dream fort!
Snow Day!!! I don't know how much snow we got - but I'm thinkin' it was at least 8 inches. What a beautiful way to celebrate Valentine's. Caleb summed it up best -When he woke up on Thursday and it was snowing, he immediately yelled out "I'm so 'cited, Thank you God!!!" Ditto Caleb.
Our new additions! This was an early Valentine's present. These are our 2 new guinea pigs, Jesse and Rosey. Caleb named Jesse after a certain movie he's obsessed with (Buzz Lightyear), and Jonah named Rosey, because she has pink eyes. They are very gentle and actually pretty cuddly. We are all so proud of our new pets. -- I was asked if Hannah was scared of them...Definitely not, in fact they should definitely be scared of her. Curiosity and a one year old, a lethal combination. I'm just waiting to see Hannah strolling one of the guinea pigs around in her stroller!
