The month of January

Bonnie turned 7 months old!  She is SO CUTE!

It actually did get cold enough for a fire this winter.  We've had an unusually warm winter so we were excited to lite it up a few nights in a row.  We made Smores and they were very tastey!

We can't get enough of these two rascals!  They are two peas in a pod!  They are looking at a family picture book of themselves and just cracking up! 

Since we had so many nice days to be outside, we were outside A LOT!  The girls love to be outside and play in the dirt and explore the yard!

Evelyn has a knack for drawing!  She's so good at it!  She loves to draw and color and will do so hours!!  We have many sheets of her art work on display at the house and she love to show off her work to visitors!! 

 Bonnie looks like she is being starved doesn't she?!!  She started eating graham crackers and cheerios and animal cookies...then she went into avocado slices, bananas, peas, carrots, and her favorite...homemade mac-n-cheese! She is SUCH a good eater!  Little Bon Bon!!!!!! 

If you come to our house around 6:30pm every night, you will hear loud, bumping music on the streets coming from the house because we have DANCE PARTIES!  The girls typically get dressed up and we put on music that has a fast pace and upbeat tempo...Evelyn really likes Techno!!  The girls dance until bedtime and it's hillarious to watch!  This is Claire doing the 'Robot'.

Guilty Pleasure!  We got a deep fryer recently (everyone should have one) and we made homemade potatoe chips with homemade ranch dressing.  BETTER than the restaurants!!!  Mmmmm Good! 

On this day outside, the girls were riding their bikes and they came across and worm.  It was baking in the sun, but not quite dead yet.  The girls decided to bring him "gifts" of flowers and dirt and grass.  They arranged their gifts around the worm in the form of a wreath and then they watched it dry up and die.  Oh nature!!  LOL!

We had a great New Years spent with Peter and Julie (Gordon's brother and his wife) and their son Jared.  We played games (I think I won every game, but who's counting!!!??)  We had yummy snacks to eat the whole night and the traditional sparkling cider to toast with at midnight. Since having kids, our 'night life' has changed quite a bit, but we have found that we enjoy New Year's spent watching the ball drop in NYC on TV.  It was a fun night and with great company! 
Happy New Year!  (a little late!!) LOL!

...testing. testing. .... yep, still here!

Sooo, our computer crashed AGAIN!  It's been less than three years since we last had a computer crash and now it has happened again to a less than 3 year old computer!  I didn't like that one anyways!!  We had a friend work his magic on the thing and was able to retrieve some things that were valuable to us and hadn't been backed up on our external hard drive yet...so THANKS to him for that!!  The computer works, but not well enough and it basically just wants to die so we FINALLY got a new one!!  Thank you tax return--even though that's not how we intended to spend you!  OH WELL!!!  We're back up and running and I am loving the new computer...it's so much more updated and better than what we had before!  I am learning new programs and trying to figure out setting it up to the way I like it. 
I have sooo much to post about, but no time to do so right now...but wanted you to know WE ARE HERE and getting back in action!

So HAPPY NEW YEAR in February and I'll be back soon to post about life, love and our pursuit to happiness!!!

Anticipation...

We caught Evelyn sitting by the fireplace just staring and we asked her what she was doing and she said..."I'm waiting for Santa."

Roll out the RED CARPET!

The living room in the new house had red carpet that was...old to say the least. ;) We were given the blessing to remove the carpet and reveal the beautiful hardwood floors that were hiding underneath...safe and protected all these years! It was so fun to tear it up and get rid of that old stinky carpet! Now the floors are exposed and we love them! This room is our 'storage' room while we are living here...don't mind the two pianos and exessive storage racks in the background...just focus on the floors!! :)
