Update time again

SLEDDING
Awhile back we were visiting my parents and we were trying to find things to entertain us. We decided that it was the perfect day for sledding, if we could find enough snow. Well we happened to find enough snow so we went sledding for the first time this winter. The kids really had a blast. We thought that we were going to end up just pulling them around but they actually went down the hill pretty good.



Carter Sleeping
The other day we were having lunch and I left the room for a minute to say good-bye to Nick. I came back and this is what I found...


Carter sleeping in his pizza!
Brooke's Wedding
Nick's littlest sister was married on Feb. 6th. It was a really special day. For some reason we don't have very many pictures. Hopefully we can talk Nick's mom into duplicating hers. Anyway it was a great day and we are so happy and excited to Brooke. Here are two of the pictures we did get.

Last but not least, our candy house...
We have been cooped up inside because we have had colds and it is really cold outside so we have been looking for things to do. Well we made some dog houses out of boxes a couple of weeks ago and the kids absolutely loved them and played in them non-stop. The only downfall was that they couldn't stand up in them and Carter would get pretty frustrated. So I decided that bigger would be better. We decided to make a gingerbread house. The kids had so much fun decorating it with the paper candy. They call it the candy house and they love it even more than the dog houses. They can all fit in it at the same time and they have a blast!

Cute idea, My kids love to play in boxes. My cousin made a car out of a box and put a plate for the stirring wheel and paper plates bolted to the box as wheels. He love it. Kids love the simple things. Sorry again bout your grandma.
