Sunny Days

We love the Zoo. Noah had quite an adventure today, he was in charge of our visit! I also had a little fun with some editing.
The sun is very welcome around here, we have had some cold times lately. I think we are all over the icks.... I hope. It feels like we were all sick for 3 months. Things never stop, but now things are back up to full speed again! We have been busy busy busy. Life seems to never slow down, it just keeps speeding up. House hunting, kids, work, etsy, Portland to Coast.... So much going on, but we love it.
I just noticed....no pictures of Paige. Oops! I will make it up to you, I promise!

Happy St Patricks Day!

This is a favorite day in our house! Noah was a little shy.....? I don't know if its that we love the pinching, or the color green? But we do it big!!

Just One of the green things we had for dinner, Limeade with of course...a lime! We enjoyed green grapes, taco salad, (almost had green meat...thanks mom) and Kiwi's!

Gotta love Zach! He will always pose for a picture!

Even Paige had green food.

And for Dessert!! Thanks Mom!!
My mom always knows what is going to make us all happy! Even if its not what we should be eating! (can't lose weight on cookies!)

Dream House

Life has been quite interesting! Aaron and I are officially looking for a house!! This is so exciting! I can paint any wall I want, and no one can complain, or make me paint it back!! I know this will be a long process.....but well worth it!!

My dream house, is a 4,200 square foot house, with 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, a HUGE kitchen, walk in pantry, great room, scrapbook room, playroom, a nice private deck off the master, a daylight basement for guests, with bath. (so I guess thats 6 beds, 5 baths, so I need more sq footage...) large backyard, enough room for a dog, and a trampoline, and a 4 car garage (room for the big boy toys! Oh! And it has to come with a free maid, butler, and chef! If anyone can find me a house like that for $200,000, Please let me know!! Hahahaaa~

Sorry, I know that is a complete joke!! But one can dream!

(this house is for sale! But its only 2.5 million....I wish!)

Christmas injury!

Every year, I mean EVERY, one of my mother's stocking hangers breaks! This year, there was a little more to the incident... We were putting up the tree, and talking about the commercial side of Christmas. Noah asked which stocking was his, and Aaron pointed it out, he got so excited he kind of pulled on the stocking, and CRASH...down it came. Poor Noah cried really hard for about 45 minutes. (so hard he was sweating) His toes were black and blue, and bloody. Aaron gave him a blessing, and things calmed down. I waited for about 4 hours, my folks came home from the Temple, and then off to the ER we went. I waited just to see what the toes would do, he couldn't move them, so I was worried about a broken bone...

The toe I was worried about is fine. There is a small fracture on his big toe, its a hair-line, so the doctor said to keep him off his feet today! Then he can walk as he is comfortable. He will lose the nail, but that will take quite awhile!

This is the stocking holder, you can see that "frosty's" head is sideways behind his body... it weighs about 5 lbs.

And this is what happens when a stocking holder smashes 2 of your toes. I do have a "close up" of his toes, but it is a little gross....
