Valentines Day Project

I am so awesome! I figured out the crayon art thing and made it for Robert with the boys. Turned out perfect for Valentine's day and doesn't look at all girly! I am just so amazing! Not proud...Just super awesome!

Alestair

He did get dressed himself.
Yes the shorts are on inside out
Yes there is snow outside.

Alestair's "birsday party". All his friends came.
like a billion of them they ate cookies, spilled
water and left. 

Who says boys don't do anything like "tea parties"
Yeah right. They just call them birthday parties!

He has an idea! So super cute!

Emmett...He is cute.

Snow Day 6

It hasn't stopped snowing. Until I went out to take these. I wanted to play with the boys instead of carrying my camera so we didn't take pics the last couple days. IT IS SO COLD! 

My foot prints. kinda almost making it to the cement.
This is under a bit of tree cover as well.

The wind came with the snow. Snow Boy tried to stay up...
He is failing.

Just beautiful!

Yes we ended up with a little more than a foot.

Under the eves. Our wagon is completely filled and stuck. 

Our "cleared" walkway. As soon as we would clear it;
the snow came back to it. Like a magnet.

So

Snow Day 3--Videos!

Snow Boy was put together today. 

Yep still snowing! You can see in the videos how it snowed. It pretty much snowed like that since the 15th of Jan until it stopped. It was wonderful. We are very happy. Wish Robert could be here with us more but still very very happy! As you can see...it snowed a bit after we took pictures yesterday and continued through the night. These were in the afternoon.

Yes Emmett is still driving in the snow that is as high as the
wheels of his car...because that is safe and how we do it here.

"We stopped. Why?"

Tried to build another snowman but this snow was so powdery
we couldn't get it stick together. We just rolled a ball of snow
around until it fell apart. Emmett tried to pick it up. He is super strong!

I tried to sled with Emmett on a garbage can lid. It didn't work .
Emmett and Alestair got to do it and had fun.

Snow Day 2

Well it stayed past church and kept snowing. Still hadn't gotten under the trees very well. We were happy! It was freezing! Robert has to work to get all of his workers out and make sure they are doing their jobs safely and all that so we don't see him as much when its snowing. He usually comes home for dinner and ends up leaving sometime in the night to come back for a possible nap in the afternoon and then to leave again. 

Emmett wiping off the car. You can't drive in
the snow with snow on your car. Duh!

Can you see the "OH NO" face he is making? Just a bit? He lost his boot and
got stuck..OH NO!

Alestair really liked my scarf and insisted on wearing for
the rest of the day.

And we have snow! Day 1

It snowed. Only a little more than a dusting...you know like it happens here in Washington close to the beach and all. So we made sure to play in it before church thinking it would be gone when we got out.

He has a really good arm! Not to mention some aim!

I think this is my favorite picture right now!

Emmett HAD to drive in it. He is a daredevil!

He was just looking at the snow. Told me he loved it.
