It's WAY too cold

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, I do not envy those who are working outside today. Hang in there fellas, spring is coming!

The big 1-0

Yesterday, Ian celebrated his tenth birthday! Double digits!

We had a really fun time last night with family, lots of laughs and cake of course! Everyone agrees that we are so blessed to have such an amazingly caring, sweet, bright, loving boy in our lives.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY IAN BAE!

Snowy days

We were very lucky to have a white Christmas this year! I'm not sure I remember more than a few of those living here. It was really fun for the boys to play in. And we've been blessed with a few more little winter storms since then.

I like to look at the snow from the warmth of the living room, but yesterday I was feeling bad that I hadn't tussled around in the winter wonderland with Isaac. He wasn't thrilled to get all bundled up, but once we were out there he was in heaven!

One of our neighbors dogs hopped over the fence to join in the fun with us, after a few licks and a lot of laughs, she jumped back over the fence into her yard.

Isaac loved tasting the snow from different parts of the yard, which was hilarious. He just had such a blast, I forgot how much I don't like being cold!!

It's been a while. . .

I still can't believe that the holidays have come and gone. They seemed to flash by so fast before my eyes!

Thanksgiving was a big success, Ian and Michael helped me to create a marvelous feast, which we then schlepped to my parents house. Poor Isaac didn't eat anything except crackers that day, so his belly was too full for any turkey.

Christmas came zooming in at 100 mph. The boys had a blast making cookies for Santa. Who must have really loved them, because he certainly blessed us with lots of fun toys and gifts!

Baba and Gigi (Michael's parents) came to visit for the Christmas holiday, unfortunately we got slammed with a terrible winter storm, and he had to get home before he got stuck. Baba stayed the whole week, which was wonderful! We had such a great visit with her, and can't wait for them both to come back!

New Years was pretty quiet around here, I think we were all asleep, or just about, before the ball even dropped!

We celebrated our nephew Jacob's birthday, and now it's on to Ian's big day on Tuesday! I can't believe that he's going to be TEN! A whole decade old, man how time really does fly by.
