Nothing Special

well there isn't anything exciting going on around our place besides us all circulating the stomach flu and colds!  So I am again attaching random photo's just for fun.  For a moment in time I was going to attempt to do the "project 365" where you take a picture for each day of the year and scrapbook it a week at a time.  That last about a week, and here are a couple of the photo's I took.  

Cody and I actually got to go on a date with no kids!  It was so much fun!  We went to dinner and a movie.  It was so nice just to be alone together and have a grownup conversation with no interruptions besides the watier! LOL.  
Cody was on an oatmeal cookie kick for a while and wanted to make cookies about every other day.  Of course Asa wanted to help!  So here's Asa all ready to help make cookies!
Coen being silly and thinking the red light that comes up before it takes a picture is funny.  
And of course the only other female in the house.....Lexi poo.  She was so tolerant in letting me take pictures.  And yes it took like 10 tries for her to actually look at me.  Just like the kids! 
This is the view out my back porch.  I wish the neighbor's horses would have been right there, but they weren't.  It's still pretty.  And my camera took a pretty good shot into the setting sun! LOL.  

Sorry there isn't anything more exciting going on!

Photo overload

Well I haven't updated with pictures of our kids and what's going on. So here we go. Of course they are backwards, but oh well....

Asa moved up as a sunbeam in church. He loves to go to his class, even though there's not as much playing in primary as there was in nursery.

Asa has recently found the excitement in dressing up. So on a daily basis he will morph into several different characters. The dragon/aligator (whatever he decides for that moment) Then he'll put the cape over the dragon/aligator to make it a "super hewo". Then he'll be batman. Sometimes he'll put the cape on the other side to be superman with just clothes on, but most of the time he likes to be batman. Coen doesn't much care for any of it, but think's his brother is silly.


I was vacuuming one day and this is where I found Coen. He was so scared of the vacuum he was hiding into our bed. It was so funny! When I vacuumed my bedroom he panicked when I got to that side of the room. I had to take him out so I could finish.
Snow day. It was a beautiful day and the boys were having fun outside. We had like 6 ft ice dripping from the roof and then it broke. Asa was playing with the remnants.




My poor poochie in the backyard wondering what all the fuss is in the front. She loves to be involved.

A new addiction....er...I mean hobby

I came across some digital scrapbooking templates and thought I'd give it a try.  Since my kids do not cooperate when I enter my craft room, I thought I'd try this.  for some reason they don't bother me much when I'm on the puter.  I haven't spent a single penny on anything yet, though I will have to pay to have them developed.  I am pretty happy with the results and it took just over an hour to learn how to do it and create the two layouts.  Don't worry, I am still very much addicted....I mean....In love with Stampin up.  And I will always love getting my hands on paper and glue and other embellishments.  For some reason I am so afraid to actually get down and scrapbook.  So these templates that I can drag and drop into seemed so easy....which it was!
