Snow Much Fun!

Its snowing!!!! Today the girls wanted to go out and play in the snow so I thought why not, I'll go too. It was a lot of fun. Paige wasn't so into getting all her stuff on but once outside she had a great time. Bryan got out the little snowmobile and the girls had a blast on it! Paige loved the rides she got from her sisters. We went sledding and built 2 snowmen. Here's a few pics to show our snow time fun.






Paige really loved sledding down the hill. She kept saying "Again mommy, again!"



Olivia loves the snowmobile! I would say she is a lot like me, wants to go fast and doesn't care who is in her way, watch out!

Morgan was really into making the snowman. I would say this was the best packing snow for a snowman.

Our finished product. What a fun afternoon we had outside!

First Hair Cut!

Well Paige got her first hair cut yesterday and did wonderful! I know it may not seem like a big deal to most but for me it means fun! I didn't cut off much, it just needed the long shaggy ends cut off so it is all the same length.

Before the cut. Her hair was a lot longer than what it looked because of her curls.

After the cut. I thought the curls would be gone but they are still there. My little girl is growing up!

What was I thinking!

Well yesterday I joined facebook, probably not a good idea. I did it mostly because of youth group but.........oh well.

Thanks Amy!

Well I've been "tagged" thanks to my friend Amy :) Now you get to learn a little bit about me.

1.What are your nicknames?
Most people call me Em. I've been called Emmers too. My Grandma always calls me Emmy Kay. I had a few other nicknames in highschool but no one uses them anymore, which is ok with me.

2.What game show and/or reality show would you like to me on?
Definitly What Not to Wear, what woman doesn't want a $5,000 shopping spree! Sadly (well maybe not sadlly) I don't think my everyday clothes are bad enough to get nominated to get on the show. I would though volunteer to dress up in some terrible clothes and let you take pictures of me so that I could get nominated. The other show I wouldn't mind being on is Trading Spaces.

3.What is the first movie you bought on DVD or VHS?
I honestly can't remember. VHS was so long ago, I probably didn't buy one till Morgan was born and it probably was a Veggie Tales movie.

4.What is your favorite scent?
Bryan's cologne - Happy for men, I love it! I also like spiced cider candles from The White Cadle Barn, oh and sweet pea too.

5.If you had one million dollars that you could only spend on yourself, what would you do with it?
Let's see........I should probably be smart about it. I'd invest some, pay off the house, put some away for the kid's weddings, paying for 3 girls weddings is going to be expensive!!! Then I would have a shopping spree!

6.What one place have you visited that you can't forget and want to go back?
Well its not one place in particular, I would say I loved the cruise Bryan and I went on 6 years ago (wow that was a long time ago!). It was in the Carribean. Oh and Puerto Rico, thats where Bryan asked me to marry him, awwwwwww :)

7.Do you trust easily?
Um........I used to but probably not as much now anymore.

8.Do you think before you act, or act before you think?
I act before I think, well at least I like to think I do.

9.Is there anything that has made you unhappy lately?
Work has been pretty slow for Bryan so there has been some ups and downs.

10.Do you have a good body image?
I like to think so. I like my body much better now that I have had 3 kids than what I did when I was in High School.

11.What is your favorite fruit?
I like pears, strawberries, watermelon, and catelope

12.What websites do you visit daily.
I am big into blog "stalking" I guess you could say. I must admit I do visit Craigs List often too.

13.What are you been seriously addicted to lately?
Probably being on the computer

14. What is the last song you got stuck in your head?
Well you are going to laugh.....one of the songs that the girls sing on the bus. Paige has now learned it and she sings it all the time, it is so funny! " My name is choo-choo Charlie, I know karate, punch you in the body, oops I'm sorry, don't tell my mommy, don't tell my daddy, my name is Crispies!" I am going to get a video of her singing it, its too cute!

15.What is your favorite item of clothing?
I've really been loving my comfy pants and sweat shirts, we are trying to keep the heating bill down so I think it is always cold in the house.

16.Do you think Rice Krispies are yummy?
Only if they have a LOT of sugar on them, or in scotch-a-roos and Rice Krispie Treats

17.What would you do if you found $100 laying on the ground?
Look around to see if there was anyone around and if not I take it and go shopping.

18.What items could you not go without during the day?
A shower ( I know that is not an item but it is a must!), lotion, and my ring.

19.What should you be doing right now?
Well lots of things but I don't want to do them. Laundry, my kitchen cupboards need cleaning, starting dinner.

20. Name 3 people who should be tagged
Rachel, Jennie, and Heidi

I Voted......

Did you? I didn't even have to wait in line. Liv and Paige came with me and we all got our own "I voted" stickers. Afterwards we came home and played outside. What a beautiful day it is! I think this may be the last 70 degree day we are going to enjoy this year. Heres a few pic of us enjoying the morning.
















Static anyone?

Liv and Paige enjoyed a little swinging too.

Happy Halloween

What a busy day Halloween was! Olivia had a party in her classroom in the morning and Morgan had one in the afternoon. I was able to make it to both of them and we had a lot of fun!

Morgan was a snow princess this year.

Olivia wanted to be Sleeping Beauty again this year

Paige was a Cheerleader this year. She has a new thing now for pictures, she closes her eyes and says "cheese" and won't open them till you take the picture. I also had to take her to the doctor between parties because I thought she had an ear infection. Turns out no ear infection but she is being treated for a sinus infection. She is doing much beter now!

Here are the three of them before trick or treating. They had a wonderful time, the weather was awesome, couldn't have asked for a nicer day!
