Fancy Nails

Grandma Tyler found some cool nail strips that you cover your nails with. They were really neat and the girls had fun trying them out. Nothing like leopard nails. We will have to get these again for school spirit days. Thank you Grandma Tyler!

Silly Blake

Tyler and Chloe are in swimming lessons and so Chloe got a new swimsuit today. As she was trying it on, Blake stole her bottoms and immediately put them on his head. He was running around playing as if he had a new hat. Needless to say Blake was not happy to give up his new hat.

Chloe looks adorable in her new suit. Blake's face shows his disappointment! LOL...

Cinderella

Grandma Tyler, Mom and Chloe went out to dinner to Taggarts and then saw Cinderella at the Canton Player's Guild. This great girls night was one of Chloe's Christmas presents. We were excited to have front row seats right in the middle.

Chloe was thrilled to get her picture taken with the two step-sisters. She liked their part the best and thought they were very funny. She told me she would like to play a role like theirs when she gets older.

We had a wonderful evening and enjoyed the play very much.

Missing Abby!

Since it is winter, Blake has been missing the opportunity to play with the Linda next door's doggie, Abby. Almost everyday he looks out our kitchen window and waves to Abby who sits in the window across the driveway.

Blake stands right on the window sill. Just so you know, Haley is right outside of the pictures view ready to catch Blake if he slips, but he could stand there for quite a while. He usually is not happy with us when we make him leave Abby's view.

Ice Cream in a bag!

Tyler's reading story from homework gave a recipe for homemade ice cream you make in zippy bags. We were excited to have had all the ingredients and so Tyler and Chloe made some for their evening snack.

shake, shake, shake....

The end result was DELICIOUS!

Chloe new name is "sprinkle queen!"

Lego Fun!

Tyler truly enjoys playing with legos and we have realized that Blake is just as interested. It is so nice to see the two boys playing together. Tyler is such a great big brother.

Eye protection!

Daddy cut the onions for our sauerkraut ball recipe. We have learned over the years that swimming goggles can double as major eye protection in the kitchen.

No tears when these are used.
