April Fool's

This morning I was talking to my sister Katie on the phone. NO surprise I know, but what she said what quite suprising. See Katie has always been the biggest tease alive. Those of you who know her, know what I am talking about. Well, she informed me that she had no desire to play any jokes on anyone today. What, my world is totally upside down.. She has been married for just under a year, and she informed me that she thinks she is changing. I guess, cause she said, I just don't want to stress anyone out. Bizarro. I have had enough of April Fools already...Hello 4 inches of snow.....what the? But it was fun to go out with the kids and our sidekicks (our neighbors next door)...or rather we are their sidekicks and play one last time...it better be one last time.



I love this face, especially because it is the one that looks remotely like me.

My own little Norse Viking

When I told my kids to put their arms around each other...Coco pulled a classic Coco move and refused. I should have told her to get as far away from david as she could. Anyone have any tips for a 3 year old with oppositional defiance disorder?

Freezing her little fingers in the snow but refusing to put on mittens.

Going to fetch our Side kicks...I'm pretty sure Gabe is in love with the little neighbor girl. HE wouldn't leave the porch til she got ready and came outside.


She finally came....
