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!

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

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

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review.  Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
