Does anyone else read this wonderful blog?

I stumbled upon it last night, clicking onto it from a friends blog. Wow, I read it for at least 3 hours. I have not been feeling well this week and reading this blog really put things into perspective for me. I really felt this wonderful connection with this special women who shares her life on her blog.

It really reminded me of my theme for this year to be thankful for what I have. I am THANKFUL that I have a body that functions (most of the time :) and that I have wonderful children who are healthy and happy.

SNOW fun!

Miah making snow angels in the backyard. Isaac wouldn't lay in the snow.

Miah at Plum Tomatoes, the local pizza place.
A tradition that was started at USU during Snow Days was to walk to the local pizza place. Since we have one two blocks away, we went and had lunch there. Missed you Jeff and Tiscia!

Isaac enjoying his pizza and garlic knots. Yum!

Snow at the beach!


We went to the beach to see the snow there. It looked really cool where the sand and snow mixed. The waves were the biggest we have seen yet.

SNOW day

Last night we got about 8-12 inches, so JD's work called it a SNOW DAY and he doesn't have to go in! YEAH! Now, if the wind would just stop blowing so we can go play in it!

Circus . . .

Yeah, I just bought $12 circus tickets for us! We've never taken the kids before, so I hope they like it! We are going on March 18th.

Saturday outing

We let the kids stay up on Thursday to watch American Idol with us. They were funny and put their chairs on the couch to sit by us, but still in their chairs. Funny kids!

I did not break the new camera! YEAH! I did drop it on Valentines and I guess we must have got fingerprints all over it trying to fix it. Luckily, JD figured that out for me. I was really relieved!

This week I had just been being so grumpy with the kids, ok basically with everyone. I told JD that I thought I needed some time to myself and asked him to take the kids to do something. He went and got me some breakfast at Dunkin Donuts, the kids favorite place. He told me that he was going to take the kids to a movie, so I asked which one. He was going to take them to see Caroline. Has anyone seen it? I had heard that it was kind of scary and to not take little kids, so he took them to a McDonalds with a playplace for a couple of hours.

In the afternoon, Kadia came to watch the kids. We went to one of JD's professor from LIU art gallery openings. It was good for JD to see some people and re-connect with them. It was great for me to get out! We also did a little shopping and got the kids a few things for Easter. I also got 3 new cuttlebug embossing folders. Yeah! It was nice, kid free day for me. I don't really ever get those since we don't have family to help watch the kids!
