Feeling the Burn

After consuming our homemade pasta meals, we retire to the basement and work off the meal!

Making Pasta

The kids expressed an interest in cooking so we went big and made pasta. It was a huge success! As I cleaned up the incredibly messy kitchen afterward, I commented to Doug that it could have gone two ways: bust or success. We got lucky and it was a lot of fun.

Everlasting Love

Grant insisted that his Monkey needed a "bath" right before nap-time. Which meant that Monkey wasn't available for their daily nap. Rather than nap alone, Grant chose to nap near his bathing Monkey!

It was quite an episode that now summarizes nicely!

Mustache Men

Ahhhh, they grow up so quickly!

100 Days of School Project

Morgan celebrated his 100th day of kindergarten on February 6th, 2012. He was asked to put together a presentation depicting 100. His choice was a bug with 100 legs. I'm very proud of "our" creation! The bug has 50 red legs and 50 brown legs. 50 + 50 = 100!

Included is a picture of Morgan and Grant posing by the bug which is displayed outside his classroom!

Family Ski Day

Grant seemed into the concept of skiing so we took a chance and took him to Eldora for a morning of skiing. And he loved it!

The worst part was the temper tantrum because he wanted to ski on his own, sans a harness, like his brother and we made him use the magic carpet rather than the actual ski lift!

Morgan is ready to move onto the "real" mountain!

Hooky Day

Doug and I played hooky in early December and went cross country skiing in Rocky Mountain National Park. We had a great time!
