Let Me Tell You About My Day.....

-Our day started with a 7:30 wake-up call from Brad, we had MOPS today.
-Next we rushed around and where 10 minutes late.
-Now the fun part. Owen begins to cry his head off when I drop him off in his class.
-15 minutes later the child care lady comes to get me because Owen puked all over himself and her. Some of you know this is what he does when he gets too worked up.
-10 minutes later the child care lady comes in and lets me know Claire is crying her head off.
-We leave MOPS 1.5 hours early, I'm not real happy at this point, but I can't sit through my lesson with two screaming children.
-We get home, both of my babies have a fever and I start to feel like crap.
-Today sucked!
-The picture is of my two sicky babies who for the most part were in this position all day long.

Another 1st Birthday at the Cabin

The drive......approximately 5 hours



The lunch......hot dogs, chili, and chips.



The Company.......lots of friends and family



The cupcake......Celia and I made it in the cook stove like Great Great Grandma Myrtle



The presents..........thanks to everyone, Claire was spoiled rotten!



Hanging out with the Birthday Girl



Our cross-country ski adventure.....we were all a little rusty but had sooooo much fun!



The last day with just the grandparents and us.....what lucky babies!



We had so much fun spending Claire Jean's first Birthday at the cabin. It brought back memories of our little Buddy's first Birthday. We had about 30 people there to celebrate. The kids played in the snow, we ate and ate and ate, rode Aunt Katie and Levi's snowmobiles, and even took a cross country ski trek. Sunday morning we woke up to a fresh blanket of snow, it made the experience even more magical. What a blast can't wait to go back!
