Christmas and other moments since then...

Ok...it has been a couple months since I have posted much of anything. So here's a quick overview of the family moments since then.

Snow Day.


Slugger still had to head to school, but Sparkle, Sugar and I got to play in the white sparkly stuff.





Christmas.
Quiet. Well, I guess as quiet as anything can be around our house. We spent the day with Nana and Papa. The kids had a blast. We made a birthday cake for Jesus, ate a lot of Nana's yummy cookies, and enjoyed the fun new presents that arrived under the tree.

Sparkle's beautiful new sweater. Made by Auntie K. Her favorite two colors...pink & purple.


Sugar got Dora, Dora, and more Dora. Her Dora car and Dora "dancer" outfit. She is a bit of a speedster on the car. Traffic violations galore.




Slugger is ready to go fishing. Another sport for him to get excited about!



Remodeling.

Probably why I haven't been posting much lately. Most of our free time has been eaten up by our latest remodeling scheme. It all started innocently enough. We just wanted to put hard floors in the office. That exploded into hardwood floors throughout the main level. We have finished the den. We also painted, removed popcorn ceiling, and put on new molding. We just moved on to the rest of the house. Last Saturday, we demolished the existing parquet flooring, plus the little half wall in the picture below. Now we are slowly, slowly installing the new, pre-finished flooring. Lots of work, but it looks beautiful so far. I love having a handy husband. I will publish "after" pictures when there is an "after" to show.

It will feel like you have a whole new house. :)

Fun to see new pictures and catch up a little bit.

And Sugar makes me laugh. Her cousin is very much like her; a little ingenuity goes a long way....towards cleaning up!
