Favorite pictures from the week...

Charlie plays trains while sitting in the train table drawer. And as you can tell...he gets really mad when he can't get out.
Jackson's first cup of cocoa for the season.
What's better than a pillow of fresh laundry?

Pin the Eye on the Monster



Mom + Wife + Plumber

I had a minor problem with my drain...Chad was at the University...I had lunch guests on their way over...and dinner guests coming later that evening. There was no time for a plumber, so I took matters into my own hands. The drain is fixed. Enough said.
(Who ever said they didn't need a roasting pan?)

Plymouth Fire Station No. 3

The highlight of last weekend was the afternoon trip to the fire station. The boys and I enjoyed a beautiful Minnesota Saturday (34 degrees) with our friends the Etzels...checking out the fire trucks, spraying the fire house and eating hot dogs. I've enjoyed reconnecting with my childhood friend Susie (Etzel) and getting to know her kiddos...we've been inseparable...not much different than when we were younger!

We don't have much to report from MN other than a couple inches of snow this weekend, Chad and I had a date night Saturday (we found a new wonderful Sushi restaurant), the boys have snotty noses which will last until April, the dogs are well and LOVED the snow, Chad is crazy busy and I luckily found out today that I don't have a stress fracture in my foot. My bone scan was clean so the Dr. thinks I have small tissue trauma (as he called it.) If the cortisone doesn't relieve the pain and inflammation within the next month then we are on to a cast and crutches. Keep your fingers crossed that that doesn't happen!Jackson LOVED spraying the fire house. He was very focused.
Charlie and his buddy Louie...poor little ones always have to be strapped in the stroller.
Something caught their eye and it wasn't my camera.
Charlie was screaming he was so excited to be standing on the firetruck next to his big brother!
