It was all about love and chocolate!

We are in the frozen tundra right now. No really my car was -8 this morning and that is without the windchill making it a grand total of -30. Fun Fun! I really almost called in the morning. My bed was so warm and my boys were snuggling and it took everything I had to get out of bed and get ready for work.

Onto the weekend.


Friday I ran to the store for our Valentine's weekend supplies. Then I went to grab my Sweet baby from school. His new thing to do when I pick him up is run from me and flop into this little turtle ball pit thing that they have. He laughs and laughs and laughs and then I have to go get him and he laughs some more. I swear his teachers think he hates me because when Daddy picks him up (which is like once every 3 months) he runs right to him and hugs him.

Anyway we came home and I lugged in all the grocery's and bags and the wiggling child of mine. I put on my comfy clothes and sat on the couch for 2 seconds to try and warm up. And just as I was about to  get up my sweet baby came walking in with flowers, followed by my amazing husband who also had a flower for me. In all the Valentine's days together Michael always gets me a single yellow flower. I love yellow and so that's what he gets  me. It was so sweet and perfect and just a nice little something from my boys.




We are dinner (left over pasta) and then got our pork ready. Okay I started to take pictures and then forgot so I will post the recipe later in the week because it really is simple. Here is the first step the rub.

We ended the night watching a movie after G went to bed. Boogie nights. Have you every seen it? Um it was interesting is all I have to say.


Saturday I woke up with all my boys! It was wonderful. Michael made us a big breakfast we drank coffee and just relaxed. Then we got our pork in the crock pot and payed and watched a movie (Monsters Inc.) Then it was lunch and naps for everyone. Once we all woke up Michael had to go out and plow. Then we exchanged cards (homemade) and had our delicious dinner. I love pulled pork. Then we had brownie sundae's which are my love language.


Sunday Michael was back at work it was -4 and just as I was about to call my Mom and say we were probably not going to go to church because it was cold they cancelled services. Grayson and I stayed warm and cleaned the house up. We ate lunch took a nap, Michael came home and plowed again because it never stopped snowing. Once Grayson went to bed Michael and I had another brownie sundae and watched some TV.

It was a wonderful weekend!

Happy Monday ! Stay warm!

Four Things right now

Four things about all of us right now... Grayson One- This boy has finally found his groove in 1st grade. Kinder to 1st was a big adjustment but he's doing well now. And he is a spelling champ! He does sooooo good on his spelling tests! Two- Hockey is life for this kid. He skates twice a week (once doing a hockey specific clinic and once doing family skate see below) His skills are really growing Three- He loves reading and so we are riding that wave all the way. Four- He has to wear his glasses full time now. What started out as hey wear these when you watch TV that is farther away or when you sit farther from the board has turned into needing them full time. Our school has a local organization that comes in and does eye assessments for free for the elementary schools and they sent home a letter saying get him to the eye doctor he needs glasses (well that was the jist of it) and we since we already had glasses from his eye doctor he just started with tho...

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a ...

Conferences, Grocery Pick up and trying to get out the door

I had grand plans to document our day on Friday. I was going for an every hour sort of thing and then after the 3rd hour lost track I will shoot for next Friday though we will see I'm off on Friday's ( all the happy faces for a 4 day work week and the $$$ saved on daycare ) It was our February break from school so Grayson is home too. I get up at 6:15 on Fridays which is sleeping for me because during the week I'm up at 5 and I head downstairs to do a workout. I'm in a funk right now with that stuff but I still move my body. Today I did a 10 min arm video and 10 min lower body video. I stretch for a few mins and I'm done just in time for Grayson to come wandering down the stairs. I chug some water. Check in with Michael and head upstairs to get Marshall and Charlotte from their beds. They both woke up dry (we are in the throws of potty training and are still in pull ups at night for now) They charge downstairs yelling that they have to pee and demanding...
