January 2014 Instagram

He helped me clean a glass of eggnog out of the dining room carpet. Why do people put carpet in dining rooms? Merry Christmas present to us! ...much needed for our new house

Quiet play

Watching the little mermaid with my cuties. It's their first time to see the original. Kenna is ecstatic!!

Mr Personality. +

Happy New Year:-)

Using our free tickets to see...frozen!! The kids are very excited about this surprise!

Red Robin, cheers!

Entitled "this is Daddy" by L.G. Bolger

Making the kids collect all the Christmas things throughout the house and put them with the tree. Sad day:-(

Anybody wanna borrow a movie? I feel like we've got every one. Ever created.

Making some stock for chicken soup!

Had to make a sign today, for a wedding in the morning. Nothing like last minute!! (Thanks to Pinterest for inspiring brides in the 11th hour:-)

Look what I made tonight! It's not fondant, it's really smooth buttercream. Happy Birthday Ardyn!

basketball has started...so we get another magnet for our van!

Our favourite "cure", super sized!

Thank you Tetris, for giving me the skills needed to pack the trunk after a Costco shop

Sneak peek!

We got a used fire pit for Christmas. Testing it out today with sticks from the yard. 55 degrees outside today. The coats and hats were a little over kill:-)

First manicure from her Christmas gifts!...I think this was from Janessa and Jillaine

It's school day for me today too! And I have to take notes for my poor memory. All the personal/impersonal, plurals and genders may be confusing me a little:-)

Playdoh time!

That is a huge bag! Putting the tree away this year is easier than ever, thanks to our new bag!...the box finally died, can't say I'm too sad about that. Easy peasy!

I believe this is the coldest its ever gotten here, by a long shot, since we've lived in Va Beach (10 years)

Things I should hope I never have to translate, or say..."your wife is big"

Kids making beds in the closet:-)

A space ready for the piano! Gonna get it moved here soon!

About 70 reasons, pictured here, why I am so glad I don't deal with winter on a regular basis

A huge pile of pancakes...and all that remains. These 5 kids are eating me out of house & home!...at least there is some left for me this time:-)

My calendar is here! It's January with Brent's family! #familycalendar

Happening now:-)

M is for mouth


Mitten match up
She got ink on her once used uniform. Don't ask me how. Grrrr!

When kids work remotes. Haha. Little couch potatoes!

He's a "bam-pire", he says

Someone brought this itty bitty to my house, and forgot it in my freezer. #dangerous #itsminenow

I feel like these rainboots are the fashion statement of my life

kayemargaret - maybe it depends on what looks best? I think of it as...the one I remove (chores etc) is the top one, the one I never take off is the wedding one.

This picture pretty much epitomizes Brooks' personality. He is a super enthusiastic Debbie Downer

Instagram Dec 2013

 
Grey did this, and loves the way it looks, a lot. He will be sad when they mysteriously get repositioned. 

A little "midnight dinner" for my hard working man. Ain't nothing like reheating;-)

Spider-Man and Superman are playing very hard today

Tidying up the bookshelf:-)

Loving fall!! #countryinthecity
I guess it's technically winter now:-)


Pic - taken by Brooks

Souring my milk. And now we wait.


Ladies, are you ready for this? Tomorrow is the day we make coasters!

Sonny, making something for his daddy for Christmas...shhhhh!

Pizza party for Christmas!

It's Maisy Daisy!

Look, I have a beard!

The many faces of b.j.b.

Multiple personalities?

Lazy Monday breakfast. White chocolate raspberry coffee, with white chocolate drixxle, and biscotti. #homemade #delish

Jamberry experiment, just applied! Day 1 #jamberry #juliejams

Brian came home late, and I made him fresh salsa...then lost motivation to clean up after myself before bed. Good morning to me!

Kenna: how many more days before we can skate on the lake?
Me: Uhhh, never
It might feel cold, but it's not that cold!

Mini Christmas store - for Cubbies only. Fun is about to be had by all!:-)

My first loaf of bread in my new-to-me bread maker!

Jamberry nail wrap experiment, day 3. I'm pretty much sold on these things!

A weird pancake flip yields devilish results:-)

It's a little chilly today, but the ducks are out!
Which you can't see from this pic haha

May, saying cheese, eating cheese

My slave labour

Oh no, they're back! Perhaps I should issue a warning;-)

Mini quiches, coming right up!

Kids pic!

Kids waiting for their cue in the first of two performances. Christmas cantata time!

Pic from our Bible Study Christmas party on Sat

A little late getting them out this year...but getting it done!

A pencil in a cup of ice - what are you doing? "it's just my test, mom. I'm testing it out"

Christmas party conundrum. Decisions, decisions...

Bib necklace...target jewelry for Brian's work Christmas party

Go fish in the sun

Getting my party face on!

This is happening now:-)

Grey: Wow where did we get this huge can?
Me: it was daddy's
Grey: What!?! He drank from that girl can?
**pink is never for boys** ;-)

Mornings are about to get a whole lot more gooder 'round here

Ducks, this time, a better view;-)

A vintage Christmas village. Given to us by Brian's uncle & aunt (Bill & Jonne). They didn't have room for it when they moved. The kids adore it!

He does it better than me 

White hot chocolate with "whup" cream of course. In a favourite mug:-)

All our presents are wrapped and ready to go! We are blessed

Pancake Friday!

Ok, kinda gross. Grey sustained a little eye injury this week while playing with Sonny. It was just an accident/play getting carried away, but it actually was a real injury. I suspected over-drama at first, of course. This is above the colour part. The blood is fading, so I think it's healing well. He hasn't complained of discomfort for a few days. Praise the Lord!

@riekefamily all I did was make cookies...around 12:30. Haha. I would put my mess making abilities up against the best of them;-)

Snowman fun! #bigcookie

Merry Christmas!

And for my Canadiana...:-) Merry Christmas

Two blondies bathing...:-)

The peas cancel out the chocolate(s)

Every time I'm in East Beach a different house captures my fancy. Today, this is the house

You better watch out, Santa Claus is coming to town!

a quick pass through downtown on christmas eve:-) we love our busy downtown with all the cranes and ships

ice cream for dinner on Christmas eve!

Burning off Christmas sugar by making snow angels on the carpet:-)

If you can measure happiness by bags of trash, and I think you can, we've had a good day. So blessed! Merry Christmas to all, and to all, a good night.

I love it so much! Thanks babe!


Epically moody child. Nap time?

Wish me luck! Vintage toy fun, coming up!

Oh boy! This is only about half the people...people only!! Yikes. This may be more than I bargained for!

Progress...

I did my first Jamberry nail application on myself today! Looking good! Lets hope I like this look for 10+ days:-)
