Grocery Store Restrictions

They should have a big sign in front of the sweets that reads:

"If you are pregnant, and trying to buy a house, this is not the isle for you!"

Dark Chocolate M & M's are my best friend right now.....not a good thing, because I didn't buy the small bag. :) Good thing Elise and Ben require that I share with them, this way I can't say I ate the whole bag all by myself.

Ehre's Prayer....

Jeff loves to use nicknames with the kids. Tonight when calling on various children he was using them during family prayer. He use a nickname in call Ehre to her prayers..... The funny part is when Ehre asked her Heavenly Father to help Jeff stop calling the kids names.  After the prayer she turned to Jeff and grinned, she seems to have his same sense of humor. ..these moments are classic. :)

Meeting the pilot.

Today we flew home...over all it went pretty good even if it was just my 34 week prego self, a lap child and two kids. Between flights the kids were able to meet the pilot and he even let them " shoot the guns"..... I have no idea why he let them touch the actual steering wheel..but they came out feeling pretty good!

Becks new baby quilt.

We've squired a new family within our family, I don't have permission to use their names but L makes beautiful quilts. My mom has purchased a few from her and this one is for Beck. I love all the animals and all the detailed.tiny blocks!

Wedding hairbows

Brian , Jeff's brother is getting married in a week! My mom....with the exception of me cutting out the pattern, finished the girls  two dresses for the event. Today I made the headbands and flowers to go on the sash. I think they turned out cute. These will also count as the girls early easter dresses....because I don't think I have time to sew 2 more. ( But I do have some ideas!)

Such BIG helpers!

They volunteered on their own to shovel the snow and then asked if when they were done if it would be ok to shovel the walks of two neighbors. One of them because he always does it for everyone with his snowblower and the second because we call them our neighbor grandmas and try to keep their walks clear. What great examples of service today! I've got hot cocoa for when they are done.    :)
