Another snow day at the end of Christmas break....I was planning on crafting and getting things done, but I did not! I found a recipe for a one cup microwave brownie and told the kids we could make it today. After they got baths I started mixing the ingredients and Drew was super excited, Kylie was a little Leary because it had applesauce in it (I don't know). Well, it was a total Pinterest fail! The kids would not even eat it!

Here is Drew's reaction after he tasted it!

Snow ice cream seems to be all the rage right, I only saw it posted once on Facebook last night and decided to try it, after I had made snow cream with my kids I started seeing everyone post that they did this today! It was too snowy and cold to go to school today and t is the first day after break, a lot of day care centers and other businesses were closed too, so I guess everyone was home trying to find something to entertain the children. After we made ou snow cream, Kylie decided we should add to it, she wanted chocolate chips and I wanted peppermint, so we added both! It was ok...not as creamy as normal factory made ice cream, but not bad!

No more baby gate

And no more front on Drew's crib....he is such a big boy!

January 3....brrrr....it's cold outside

January 2nd

Mom: "what are you doing?"

Kylie: "making a carpet!"

Not sure why we needed a "carpet" like this...

Snow, snow, and more snow! Todd snow blowed twice today and we still can't see our front step!

Day One of 2014

What a great day to be a Spartan!! Todd and I really wanted to go to the Rose Bowl, but after not getting tickets and then being offered tickets at the last minute and both of us instantly being stressed to find flights and then almost having panic attacks, we didn't go. Yes we were a little bummed today, but at the same time, I was so happy to be home. We had our family over and just had a laid back evening! So glad the Spartans won! 

These two.....

Drew will pretty much do whatever Kylie wants him to! This morning I got out of the shower and Drew had his Halloween costume on and Kylie's wings on!

Fun times

They love being together

Kylie and Drew have loved spending time together during Christmas break!

Happy New Year!!

Drew has his first ear infection of the year! He started not feeling well on Saturday and I got him into see the doctor today and she confirmed that he is sick! Of course I have been used as a Kleenex for the last couple of days, so now I am feeling not the greatest! I woke up this morning with pain in my ear, so I had the doc look, she said they were fine, so I just have a cold! Todd seems to be fine and other than getting her flu shot today, Kylie is fine!

Party

Kylie's school does all holiday parties the Friday before the holiday, so yesterday was her Halloween party. She is Ariel this year. Aunt Becky, we have an idea for next year but will need your help :)

Nice weather

Last night was a beautiful night for a stroll to the park!

Go Tigers

Kylie out grew her Tigers shirt, but that doesn't stop her from watching the game and cheering for the Tigers! When the game started tonight, both kiddos stopped what they were doing to watch for a second.
When I first tried to take a picture, Kylie asked if she could take pictures!

Cheese

A weekend of possible lasts

Possibly the last Bon fire on Friday night, it was chilly, but the kids had fun and so did the moms and dads!
Saturday was Kylie's last soccer game, the girls played well and Kylie even scored a goal!

Fall love

The kids loved playing in the leaves tonight!

Aren't you going to take a picture?!

We were at Old Navy and they had this cute cut out! Kylie stood in it and then asked if I was going to take her picture!

Best Friends

I love when my munchkins play nice together! They have so much fun!

Parade

Last night we went to the Byron Center Homecoming parade, we are slowly learning how to be Byron Center involved. :) Drew was not a big fan of the loud fire trucks at the beginning, but loved the rest, and Kylie lived it all :)
