Sledding

Nice little Sunday afternoon sledding on our property and checking out the progress on our house.

Chiefs hockey game

Abi- "this is more fun than I thought it would be". Of course their favorite part was the fighting. The Chiefs smoked the other team 8-1.

Sometimes I feel crappy. Sometimes I can't find my happy place. Then I wake up the next day and everything is perfect and right again. I just look around everything is so good. So many sweet little reminders of a happy life. Care bears tucked safely in our bed, a busy calendar of events, swim lesson bags packed, skiing with the bigs, and Catie kisses. Best-est life eva.

Ski Saturday and Jump Bounce with Cate

Cold and sunny but a good day was had by all. Cate made it down the big mountain four times!

Picking stuff for our house is the fun part, but also scary. Lets hope it all looks good! These are some fun pictures I found to help us decide.

Home sweet home

Framing is almost done

It's one big mud pit

The kids got to go inside and see their rooms.

Getting so excited!!! Can't wait to move in.

Mountain kids

After taking two weeks off for illness and just being busy, the kids had a great day back on the mountain on Saturday. Their lesson went great and they didn't want to stop, although finally tuckered out in the afternoon. Cate went up the big chair lift to the top twice, and loved coming down attached in the harness. Only a few minor crashes. A great ski day was had by all.

These pictures were taken by Lookout Mountain's photographer.

About me

I am a working mama of three amazing children with a sweet husband that makes cookies with the kids while I'm at work and saves me cookie dough in the frig. In other words he's pretty darn awesome. We are lucky enough to have everything so I started this blog to record our blessings, preserve our memories, and remember the love we share.

Brad and I met at WSU forever ago and have been married 10 years. We have been through everything- college, jobs, promotions, weddings, vacations, babies, fixer-upper house, cat, dog, chickens, boats, trailers, losing my Momma, moving across the State, and countless ups and downs. We are living the dream, up all night with a screaming baby and scraping poop out of undies like it's no ones business. But I wouldn't want to do it with anyone else.

I think of myself as a too much kind of person. I feel too much, love too much, worry too much, and laugh too loud. I suspect I was born with an extra dose of sensitivity that I am learning to embrace as a quality. I'm obsessed with my babies, love my family something fierce, live to kiss my husband, be creative, and for long hot summers. I blog because my heart is overflowing and I may burst if I don't get it out. I miss my momma dearly and carry her in my heart always. I strive everyday to be a good person, happy, and appreciative.
