More catch up....

One school morning we decided to have art class.


They love painting.....

Later on when we were back to the books Mathias decided to give Z rats.

He was saying, "got you" and "eat you" .....

He's making eating sounds.....Zerrick looks helpless. 

Our most used door during our first blizzard.  

Lovely snow. 


There wasn't really this much snow but the wind blew it up nicely like  this! 

We hand cranked ice cream during that blizzard.  Matt was gone for two nights and two complete days.  I have a better feeling for Ma in the Laura Ingalls stories......

Happy Birthday Keagan

Keagan turned three while we were in Idaho. So we made a cake and celebrated with the Skrivseth cousins this year. He was enthralled watching me make the cake. Had to have his little hand on that hat! gazing in adoration at it. Just about ready to blow those candles. He kept telling me that we couldn't sing Happy Birthday though. He's easily embarrassed! Silly guy! I rather like my little three year.
