Our copy of Tangled (the Disney cartoon) arrived on Wednesday. I tucked it away and told the girls they could invite a friend over for a late night of pizza, playing and a movie. This small event turned into quite the girly gathering! Megan invited a set of twins, Claire invited her friend Allie, and …

Spring has sprung (sorta)
We have had an unusual amount of warm weather this past week. Our family has caught spring fever. What happiness warm weather brings! There have been walks to the park, hours of sidewalk chalk, running around the neighborhood with friends, and we even started on a little yard work. Unfortunately we all woke to a …
Doin’ a little prankin’
Happy April Fool’s day! I love this holiday. I am convinced it was created for mothers. It allows us to get a little crazy and have a little fun apart from our daily routine of parenting and housework. This year I read up online about a few fun things to do in the kids’ lunches. …
Ski Date: Deer Valley
Just like last year, I managed to get a free ski pass to the world famous Deer Valley resort. I thought it would be fun to bring Manina along this time so we could make a date out of it. Manina was pretty nervous. So nervous, in fact, that her anxiety was making her borderline …
Pins were the real winners
We needed to just get out of the house the other day, but it wasn’t warm enough to play outside, so we decided to go bowling as a family. We’re not big bowlers, which is obvious by looking at the scores below. Claire and Drew (he took the second shot) could barely get the ball …
Yummy!
Seriously, what could be better than these huge chocolate dipped cones? Well, maybe how they look AFTER they eat those chocolate dipped cones! KK & Meg all messy and probably super sick to their stomach!
Busy, busy
Where does the time go? Well I am pretty sure I know! We get through winter by keeping busy with various activities the kids enjoy doing. I love keeping the kids involved in activities, but I also cherish my lazy days so somehow I managed to cram all of our activities into two days (Tuesday …
There’s a new cook in town
A few months ago Seth started tinkering around in the kitchen. Yes, I did say kitchen. Trust me, I was as shocked as you are. He doesn’t really enjoy cooking the normal recipes we have around here, but rather he prefers to experiment. My first recollection of this momentous occasion was when he started making …
Vacation Day 4: More Disney Fun
Wednesday, February 9, 2011 We were all pretty tired from a full Tuesday in California Adventures. Megan, Jacob and I left early so we could get fast passes for everyone to see the World of Color show. When the rest of the crew arrived at the park, we split off again. Jacob and Megan really …
Vacation Day 3: California Adventures
Tuesday, February 8, 2011 Unlike our Monday at Disneyland, we were able to get right into the park on Tuesday. Since it was “magic morning” at Disneyland, where some passholders are able to get in early, we decided to go where the crowds weren’t: California Adventures. The whole morning, we probably only saw a handful …
