Evan's Valentine To Me

 He said this was a picture of me running in a field of flowers and one of the flowers was a giant, but it was a nice giant. That's why it's smiling.

He wrote the word "love" all by himself, without asking Tom or me how to spell it.  So sweet!

Snow Bunnies

 

 The boys asked me to build a snowman so I made a "snowbaby."  I couldn't muster up enough energy to make one any bigger than this. 

 

 

 Tom took them out to play the following weekend while I went shopping, and they made a "real" snowman! It's a very impressive one, too!!

 

Snow Daze

We got a big snowstorm on Feb. 13th that dumped about 14 inches on Leesburg. I'll admit that snow looks quite pretty on the trees and the field behind our house, but I don't have much use for it. The boys were quite excited about it, though, since it was the first big snowstorm Dylan had ever seen, and the biggest one Evan had seen since 2010 (which he didn't remember.) 

 From Fergie's eye level, it was just a solid wall of snow!

Christmas In February

After 4 or 5 cancellations (due to bad weather and illness) of our planned trip to take the boys to Waynesboro, PA to celebrate Christmas with their grandparents, we FINALLY got there last Saturday. My Mother-In-Law still had her Christmas tree and decorations up because she wanted the boys to get to see them.  They loved it.  They opened their presents and we had lunch and then my Sister-In-Law Becky and her twins Ava and Aiden dropped by to surprise us. The boys were so excited to see their cousins and it was warm-ish enough that they were able to play outside for a little while.

 Dylan loved his giraffe "Stuffie"
