We went to the Crabtree's on New Year's Day for hot chocolate, waffles, and games.
We had a dance activity for mutual...
I made 300 cookies for a wedding. Supposedly someone else wants to hire me to do it again. We will see. I have no idea how much to charge though....
Banana chocolate chip muffins are a staple around here. I have the recipe memorized and make them every couple of weeks. We make a double batch and freeze them. Kimber and Cam get a little sad when we run out...
Cute gymnasts at a meet...
Demo-ing the fountain at my parents house. I can't imagine using a jack hammer. Seems like it would be torture!
While helping clean out the garage we found this old tin of nails. My mom says it was my Papa's (her grandpa). It looks super old but the date on it was from the 70's...which is old, but not old old :)
I cooked chicken in the pressure cooker for the first time...
Allison got MVP for basketball...
At the end of mutual most Tuesdays my girls normally take over the piano while we are cleaning up and putting the room back together. Glad I thought to snap this picture.
Cam found some cheap headbands at Icing. She got pig ears, deer ears, and bear ears :)
We stopped by the cemetery to try and pick up Ian's Christmas tree, but we were too late and the tree(s) were gone. I guess he'll get something new next year. Oops! But it was a beautiful day and the sunset was amazing. The view is amazing from his spot.
Konrad took Kimber and Rylee to Boise to check out Boise State. Both girls seemed to really like it.
I added to the entry wall. The pink tree painting was painted by Konrad's dad, Ken. I love it! I'm not sure the Seattle canvas will remain there forever, but for now its working.
It was so foggy one morning when I woke up...
Love me a pretty morning sky!
Sam had a bad fall at school on January 16th. She slipped in the locker room and fell hard into the splits. She was in enough pain that she actually asked to be picked up from school. I knew it had to be bad, this girl never complains or wants to miss out on anything...b/c I was picking her up she would miss gymnastics practice which meant missing the meet the next day. I picked her up and she still had tears in her eyes. She laid around and rested that day, she couldn't sit at all and walking was painful. I hoped it was just a muscle, but wanted to make sure so we took her to the doctor the next afternoon. She had an x-ray done, but the doctor didn't see any breaks or anything, so we left just knowing to ice it and rest and let the muscle get better. We got a call later that afternoon from the radiologist saying that there was in fact a small fracture to her ishium (her right sit bone) and that she couldn't do any sports for 1 month. They asked us to come back in two weeks for another x-ray. Poor girl! She couldn't even sit on the exam table so the doctor came in to her laying like this...
I had an amazing birthday weekend. 2 lunch dates with friends, watched Jakes basketball game, dinner and games with my family, and chair/bookcase shopping with Konrad. This was taken at Café Rio during lunch with my Lake Tapps peeps. (I went to Chiptole with Covington friends on my real birthday. And then Puerta Viarta with our parents for dinner that night. Mexican 3 times in two days. Amazing!) Love the people in my life...they make me happy!
Konrad (Sara and Steph) made chocolate chip cookies for my birthday treat
Cam is taking a soccer class at the YMCA. It is pretty cute to watch. She learned that there is a different way to dribble a soccer ball. She was using her hand when I looked up from my phone so I called her over to explain dribbling with our feet. She said she was confused as to why they wanted her to dribble! She also keeps trying to kick with the outside of her foot. Makes me smile every time!
A drawing from her "penguin game" (an apple tree)We see quite a few rainbows in January around here...
A picture I stole of Macie's facebook page of their family :)
Cute little "hamsters" I made for the preschoolers. By made I mean I glued eyes on puff balls :)
Sams follow up x-ray. The fracture is in on the left side, the edge of sit bone at the bottom of the pelvic bone.
One of my goals for this week was to clean out the piano music. Luckily the girls were around to help me b/c it was a much more involved task than I thought.
We had a YW board meeting at Puerta Vallarta. So yummy! Love these ladies (and those chips and salsa!)
