Grammy's 80th B-Day

We don't get to see my grandparents very often so it was so wonderful to spend time with them and for Aidan and Kirsten to see them. Brian was very disappointed that he couldn't be there with us. I love them so much and miss seeing them. It is very hard to be so far away from my entire family. We have such a large family on my Dad's side (he is one of 12 kids) and we rarely get to see everyone. I am so happy that we were able to see so much of our family and be there for my Grandmother's 80th B-Day. Happy B-Day again Grandma!!! We love you and miss you terribly!

Backyardigans

We went to see the Backyardigans this past weekend. It was pretty good. Aidan was very sad when it was over. He wanted them to come back out and sing some more. Both Aidan and Kirsten love to sing along to the music. We have a few of their CD's so they knew most of the songs. Brian was out of town, so it was just me and the kids (and their cousins, of course). We had 3 seats and only used one. They both sat on my lap the entire show.

I love to watch Aidan and Kirsten playing together. They are really starting to enjoy eachother's company and they are always looking for each other to come and play. It is great to just sit back and watch them interact. Aidan is such great big brother.

Having a little fun with Shealynn.
Talking to Gramma.

Hockey Anyone??

As usual, our weekend was pretty cold up here and Aidan decided he wanted to play hockey with Brian and I. So, while Kirsten was sleeping we had a little indoor hockey game. Aidan wore his "helmet" and made sure that Brian and I had one on as well. I love the way Aidan is looking at Brian in the second picture. They always have so much fun together.

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Just wanted to take a moment to say Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! We love you and miss you all!!

Time indoors

We have been spending a lot of time indoors lately. Not only is there a ton of snow (close to 3-4 feet) but it has been freezing lately, we're talking 8 degrees Farenheit. I haven't posted any pictures for a little while, so I thought I would take a few pics of the kids playing the other day. They look like they could be real chefs, don't ya think?




One of our favorite weekend past times in the winter is to take a nap together. The kids like to lie down in our bed and watch some our home video from Disney World and then we all have a little nap together. Brian got a picture of us this past weekend. It is one of the coziest things. Not only do the kids love it, but so do I.

More Snow!!!!!

Yep, we got more snow over the weekend. Here are just a few shots of the kids enjoying the snow. It was pretty deep, they had a hard time walking around in it. Aidan kept asking me to take him out of the snow. He liked eating the snow... Brian was sure to tell him only to eat the white snow, and steer clear of the yellow stuff :)

We also took them down a few hills on their sled. They loved it. We walked them in their sleds to the park, but I didn't bring my camera for that.
