Thank you Krista!

Sat. I was invited to Krista's for a day of scrapbooking. She had some great chili for lunch and of course we had lots of sweets. Suzi and I drove together. Also I meet Amy (from Kokomo now living is Noblesville area) who scrapbooked digitally. I worked on my 365 photo challenge book and am very excited about how it is coming. Since then I have already changed one thing but as a whole I really like it. If you haven't started the 365 photo challenge already I really think you should. After only a few weeks I am already glad for what I have done. Even if you don't blog them its nice to have some of the small random things of daily life you will forget even next month. And you can start today it doesn't have to be at the beginning of the year!!

Building with Daddy's lincon logs

I am glad for another snow day cause I realized that I had a lot of Chloe pictures here lately. Gavin loves legos and things that make something. He loves to make things and take things apart (like his cars that are not for that) and see how it works.

Oh my is that me in another picture?!!!

Here we are all playing with Scott's giant cards he got from the gift exchange at Aunt Dar's. I don't know if you can tell from the picture but they are about 5x7. We were playing and Chloe keep saying Nemo and we couldn't figure out why she was talking about Nemo but really didn't think about it too much because she is always yaking. Then all of a sudden I realized why she kept saying Nemo... can you guess what we were playing.... GO FISH! She can really say some funny things when you least expect it. Fun night when it is below zero outside. The kids had another snow day because of the temp.

Snow day

This picture is funny because it show my kids just the way they are. Gavin is not 'playing' in the snow he has to have a job - shoveling. And Chloe is perfectly content running around making snow angles and enjoying the snow.

Dick and Jane

Chloe started reading about a 9 months ago and really didn't need a lot of help. I got this book from the library and she enjoyed reading it so much I got it and another dick and jane book for her to read. She loves reading any chance she gets. The funny thing is she will blow you away with her reading but can't tell the difference between a 12 and 21. I guess she is a typical girl.

Big girl sleeping

I took this picture of Chloe sleeping to remember how she always has to sleep with someone. It is someone different all the time but she must have a friend. And of course she prefers an animal of some kind. This is Cowie. Yes she has very creative manes for her friends. Kitty meow meow and Oikie are a few I can think of right now.

Second grade ain't what it use to be!

Here are the boys reading Judy Moody. For the month of January Gavin is to read at least a 100 page book and then take a test over that book. He has really come a long way this year with this subject.

Hard hard work!

Here is Chloe doing hard hard work as she would say. She had brought home a page of homework from pre-k and was so excited to get it done. The page was writing the word red and coloring red things. Very hard hard work!

On the net at 7 years old!!

Here is Gavin doing one of his favorite things. Playing on the (my) laptop and watching Sponge Bob. Life is good!

Grandma's house

Blogger and I are not getting along right now so I had to put my other picture in a new post but it goes with the other from 1.8.
