Basketball season

We have started basketball season again... for me, I ride the pine for hours at a time... During one of the two hour practices I was chasing caroline.. here are her pictures of me.. (I don't drop my kids at practice.. maybe sometime I will, but for now I stay for everything)

Chickens... Yes. We finally got chickens and the kids are bonkers about them. Had I known how excited they would be I would have done this sooner.. We have fluffy, cookie and well, I forgot the last one...

Lunch date

Emily and I took a little break from Christmas shopping. It's hard to believe she's almost 6

Tennis

Every winter the kids take tennis lessons. Here they are

Emily in the backyard

We have been walking out with Andy during hunting season.. the kids seem to really like the dead ducks... maybe a little too much...

It's been way too long since my last post.. These days we are on the mountains of Sun Valley for ski season :)

Henry and Papa Steve

 

My dad was here for Christmas.. it's always nice to have him around :)

Bathroom redu

 

 

I was tired of the downstairs bathroom, so I tackled it in a one day project.. not to shabby I do say so myself!

Winter Basketball

 

 

 

Henry participated in the Upward basketball program this year. I have to say he's becoming a great player.. He has learned skills that put his mom to shame on the court. I love this kid...

skiing

 

 

 

 

 

Finally, caught up with blogging.. Back to skiing!

Friday with Friends

 

 

 

 

Every Friday the girls and I meet friends with other girls at a local area to play. They have been having the time of their life!

Henry reading

 

 

It has been exciting watching Henry learn at school this year. He loves to read to us now.. I can't believe how big he's getting.

A day upstairs

 

 

 

 

 

Te girls were very quiet the other day so I ventured upstairs with my camera and found Emily painting Caroline's toes. It was so adorable. Henry was quietly playing in the mirror and watching the girls.
