Middle of March

I made green (spinach) pancakes!  I kids thought it was GREAT!  They can't wait for them next year. Aren't they so green!
And with green smoothies...This is the aftermath of breakfast!

We were given this...Henry really enjoys it... well all the kids do


Happy Henry!

Its getting warmer...so what do they want is a popsicle!

Gordon is in Heaven to be outside, rollin' on the ground...such an outside boy!

Our climber

I just love curbside pick at the local grocery store...except when I forget to pick them up and get all the way home and remember I forgot to get them!

He just can't wait to be able to go outside!

Gordon is so proud of himself he got himself all dressed and is ready to go outside...

Beginning of March

Dave and I try to go the temple once a month...This was our date night for the first Friday in March, it was great to be there...so much peace and love felt...


The days are getting warmer...Gordon is dying to go outside... The snow is starting to melt and get slushy


Jonathan helping Sarah with her letters...what a great brother


One night it was in the high 30's so the kids stayed up shoveling and enjoyed the warm night!




Henry has done it again...but at least the bag was almost gone!

Playing with trains...


Playing in Sarah's room and I believe Sarah took this picture... But I love how it captures that Gordon is dying to wear shorts....


Enjoying the warm days and playing in the snow with sleds.

How doesn't love to splash in water...our Henry just loves the bath...most days!

Jonathan had finished a responsibilities and he didn't want Henry to touch the windows so he made a line of chairs so he couldn't get them!


We finished cleaning the toy room and then we were going to go to the library.

Father like son!

My adorable little Sarah...all ready to go to church!  Loving Grammy and Papa's outfit!


I know this is blurry... But this is one Sarah took and it captures Henry how he just loves a blanket to hold with his thumb in his mouth...especially with a knitted light weight blanket that Aunt Lori made for us!

March Snowshoeing....

The first Saturday in March we went snowshoeing; it was starting to warm up.  So Dave and I wore sweatshirts.  We walked over a frozen pond, which was really cool.  I mean in March it was still about 20 inches thick!!  Only in Minnesota...At first Jonathan was unsure, but by the end they were having a blast with it!



Ready to walk over the frozen pond!



Checking out the frozen ice!

Last of February

Gordon is my awesome cleaner, he wanted to vacuum as a dinosaur!


Jonathan wrote a not to Dave and I!  Love my little guy!


Playing in the snow!


Warming up after playing in the snow!

Enjoying the large amount of snow that we have received, don't have to go to a sledding hill to have fun! 


This is a frequent occurrence for Henry; if I don't put the cereal up.  Then he likes pour it out and eat it!


Biggest Snow Strom of 2014

At the end of February we got a huge storm with two snow days!







With all the snow that we have gotten Jonathan could stand and touch our 5-6ish foot tall fence!

On the second snow day the sun was out and we decided to make a snow cave.  The snow was so deep, it was a lot of fun!





The four of us!
Henry was sleeping and Daddy was at work!
No snow days for Daddy!




That was our first snow cave, it turned out pretty good!

So much snow!
