I (puffy) Heart the Dollar Tree!



Look at the cool loot I scored from the Dollar Tree! Cars Valentine's for Jack, pretty Valentine ribbon, some cute hair bows for Sophia. I also found all of the princess party stuff for Sophia's birthday coming up soon. And the yummiest find, heart marshmallows for Valentine's day hot chocolate!

Grandma's Cabin



Last weekend my in-law's offered to have the kids sleep over at the cabin that they are building above Mt. Pleasant.



The kids had a lot of fun riding on the snowmobiles.



Alex is old enough to drive one by himself now.



And this is where Paul and I went:


Across the street from this:

Ahhhhhhh, peace and quiet. Thanks Mom and Mark!

I know it's technically Friday but I've been up cleaning my kitchen floor for the first time since the crazy Christmas break.

I am thankful for the realization that I CANNOT do it all. It is impossible. This is finally starting to sink into my perfectionist brain.

I am thankful for a new calling into the cub scouts as a wolf leader. I love the boys and I am excited to have some time with Max without my other kids.

Last of all, my little princess...isn't she the sweetest?

Christmas Aftermath

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! Ours was great...lots of family and good food and happy children playing with their new presents. I am exhausted, I went to bed last night at 9:30, which is really early for me, woke up by 8:30am and I am still tired. Oh well, today feels like one of those lazy type of days anyway! I plan on alternating playing with my kids and the new toys (especially Rockband!) and cleaning my house which is in shambles. I will post Christmas pics when I find my camera cord! Have a relaxing, lazy day!
