Happy Birthday Mom! For my moms birthday on Monday, the girls and I took her to brunch at Mimis and then we all took her to dinner at Olive Garden that evening. While we were at dinner it started to snow. By the time we finished, everything was COVERED in a thick blanket of snow! It was crazy how much it snowed in such a short amount of time. My poor mom had to drive home in the yucky stuff too. I am glad it didn't start to snow till after we got to dinner though because she wouldn't have come up if it started before!!
When we got home from brunch with my mom I was trying to get a picture of the girls together.
This is what I got. Silly kids!

Wednesday was my first time going to Achievement Days. The other leader, Rondee Adams, did the lesson on how to be 'Charming', a lesson about manners. After the lesson she gave the girls a bowl of Lucky Charms cereal for a treat. It was a cute lesson and of course the girls loved the treat. I do have to say though that we have a hyper bunch of girls!! Whoa, it's sure going to be 'fun' getting them to pay attention!! After Achievement Days I went to our Relief Society Birthday Social so I was gone from 4pm till about 8:30pm. Again, it was nice to get out for a little bit.
The girls and I have been sick, sick, sick all week. We all have yucky colds and none of us can breath. Yuck. It is not fun. Kailee is the funniest. She keeps saying, "Nose. Nose, bugging me. Nose, cleaned." haha, Funny girl!
On Saturday we bought a swingset for the girls! We had been thinking about it for a while and I got an email from Toys R Us earlier in the week about a sale they were having. Then Friday I got another email that some of the sets were an additional $100 off. So we bought one! I am so excited to have it since summer is on its way and Kailee will have something to do outside!!
For some reason lately, blogging has gotten so hard for me. I got off to a good start at the beginning of the year and now for some reason I have hit a wall and have a hard time wanting to do it. I set the goal to do it once a week because I didn't want the memories to slip away. I wanted to be able to have something for us to look back at to remember our lives. Ugh. I wish I had more of a talent to write and have it be fun and entertaining. One night this week I was looking online for some activity ideas for Achievement Days. I came across a lesson about Journals that suggested doing a Journal Jar. You list a bunch of ideas to write about, cut them into strips and keep them in a jar. Everytime you go to write in your journal you pull out a strip and that's what you write about along with events from the day. Good idea. I might do that, we'll see. Oh well. For now, it is what it is.
And, just because I think they are cute...
My two little best buddies. I hope they stay this way. I hope they will always be best friends.
