Brr!

We are out running errands with Daddy today. Keira and Tyler are at school increasing the sizes of their brains. Little Liam has finally fallen asleep. Poor guy has a cold. He has finally gotten "used" to me squirting saline up his nose--as used to it as one can that is. It's nice to be in the sweet company of my man. It's a safe comforting place for me. Even, dare I say, a warm place in this frigid cold Colorado weather--whopping 5 degrees today!
If you are bundled up inside with a hot mug of joe or tea, think of me, drink an extra cup and enjoy your peaceful time snuggled under a blanket-so-soft-that-it-hurts! Cheers!!

My Daddy

For those if you who don't know--my Dad quit his stable job, packed his bags and followed a desire planted by God to serve in Haiti for three months. We miss him dearly.

I got to talk with my Daddy for a few minutes tonight. When I asked if he was enjoying the yoga classes one of the younger mission girls was leading on base, he quickly replied, "Oh! I'm suppose to be there now. I completely forgot!" Well of course, me being an avid lover of yoga who barely gets enough quiet time to appreciate its calming effect, told him to get his butt to the class! Stephanie and Mom quickly agreed. It's an awesome workout, great socializing (no talking required) and a healthy way for Daddy to relax, meditate on God and stretch those achy muscles from his hard work week.
Though I was sad to stop talking, I'm proud of my Dad for stepping out of his comfort zone to socialize and work out unlike anyway he would in the Springs. Good for you Dad! I'm your #1 cheerleader...and your favorite!

Grocery shopping and balloons

Yesterday I needed to "swing by" Sunflower Market to pick up milk and some protein for lunches. What was suppose to be short and quick ended being about 90 minutes of free entertainment and shopping for baking supplies for Fridays baking project! We had a blast!






The making of a chicken!


A RED motorcycle

Meet the pink and black horse known as Melody!--Paige--


Chloe--ooohhh Chloe--She asked for a chicken which she named "Rooster".
 


There is an egg inside the chicken!
 
Tyler making Motorcycle noises.
M waited so patiently while the guy made his pumpkin! There's a scarey pumpkin head in the middle of his balloon.
M was all about the veggies and fruits. This is an apple.
Chloe getting her flower painted.
The finished flower. There are sparkles on her face too, but my Iphone didn't capture them.
Waiting at the check out line--right next to the candy. That was fun!
