Happy Birthday to ME! Today was my birthday. It was a wonderful day! It was really a great birthday weekend. Adam spoiled me Saturday with an amazing gift.. a Cricut! If you don't know what it is I will explain more later. If you do know what it is Yippee for me! Adam and I are having a great time playing with it!

I have come across a few more fun bog I wanted to share. Two more cooking blogs! I have tried three recipes from this first blog and loved all three of them. They were all practical and used ingredients from my kitchen!

We all went sledding today. There was plenty of snow and sun shine! The perfect combination! 

Ari had a blast! Last year she didn't like sledding. Totally different this year! She was so fun! When asked if she wanted to go down she would say no, but as soon as someone got ready to go she was in their lap ready.

She was so great at holding Jordan's hand and walking up the hill over and over!

Kalixta likes to sled with her Daddy! Or anyone really. She always needed a buddy.

Britain would slide down all by herself and then just walk right up again! No whining. No complaining! She was such a trooper!

Zoe got so hot playing she had to dip her face in the snow to cool off!

Nikolas always has a good time outside with his Uncles and Aunts!

Tori slept the first little while we were there. Then she got up, ate, and had a little look around!

She even went for a ride. I don't know if she enjoyed it, but she didn't hate it!

I absolutely love the way Zoe's hair was at the wedding so here are some close ups. Marci pulled it all back into a ponytail and curled all the hair. Then using bobby pins she pinned some of the curls to make it fuller and pretty! The results were gorgeous!!

Adam went to a school assembly today honoring science. At the end of the assembly the science fair winners were announced. Zoe got 2nd place in grades k-3! She was so pleased. She said she saw Adam before but she didn't put it together! I am so proud of her.

I started potty training Ari last week. The first days were ROUGH, but I think she is getting it. She had only a few accidents the last few days! She started telling me when she has to go!  She hasn't went poop yet though. That is the hardest part! Hopefully tomorrow. 

 When she is done we have a candy jar! She loves it, of course!

Wish us luck when we venture out of the house tomorrow!!

Ammon got super student of the month today! I didn't even know he was getting it! I am so proud of Ammon!

I got my wish! It snowed all day yesterday and all night. We now have so much snow. When I went out to start the car I really realized how much snow was out there. Adam had to snow plow so he could get out of the driveway! No Joke! This is how deep the snow is. This all fell last night!

Tori has thrush. She hasn't been fussy or bad, thank goodness. I called the doctor and he said to try something called Gentian Violet before bringing her in for a prescription. Just like it's name this stuff is violet. It turns everything purple. Tori's mouth, clothes, chin and my clothes and skin. It is pretty funny. Whenever anyone sees her they laugh and ask what she been eating!
