Catching up

January 17, 2014

I have pictures from the last 2 weeks waiting to be posted so I’m just going to lump them all into one catch-up post…

The day we got back from Florida there was a massive cold front that moved through.  They even delayed school which meant Maxwell just got to take the day off! (when they delay opening until 10:30 and you only stay in 1:00 it doesn’t make much sense to go!) But, not to worry, there was plenty of work to be done around the house…

and he loved getting all bundled up to venture outside!

When we got back I also learned I had the flu. Lovely. It wasn’t too bad though and I think that was maybe because I had gotten a flu shot and perhaps it lessened the severity?  Don’t know but I’m just grateful no one else around me got it!

After a few freezing days, we were back to beautiful weather on Saturday with low 60’s and sunshine!  Perfect day for Jack’s birthday party!  The boys got to bounce, eat doughnuts, play with buddies and have a great time.  Maxwell even got his face painted!  I think Spencey had the most fun of all crawling all over the wet asphalt and mud ruining his pants, chowing down on some doughnuts and spilling chocolate milk all over himself!

Happy birthday Jack!

We’ve all had fun these past two weeks playing with new Christmas presents…

and watching plenty of movies when it was cold outside. and, who am I kidding, also when it wasn’t that cold outside. Really need to cut down that screen time!

Then to top off the week, yesterday was construction day at our house!  Susan and the boys had a fun construction filled day that included a trip to Home Depot and building a construction zone at the house!

Love their adventures.

Looking forward to a long weekend ahead.  Hope you all have Monday off like we do!

Would love to hear from you! 4 Comments

    Bummer to get the shot and get the flu too. Glad it wasn’t bad. Happy anniversary on Sunday to you and Robert!

    Maxwell is very concerned about safety. Perhaps he wants to work for OSHA.

    Too funny. Hope you like construction in the house. Looks like Maxwell’s set up shop for awhile. :-).
