Heres some pictures!

Anna and Stephen got to play outside today in the snow and loved it. I think Anna could stay playing in the snow forever if we let her.
This morning Annabelle came to me and told me to come and see Joshua. This is what I saw.
Here is our front room. Just a plain old front room. Notice the vacuum. Yes, I do do housework! Actually I was moving the girls art table from their room to the front room. Hopefully it will help them to keep it tidy. Plus I will be watching like a hawk making sure it is clean!
Here is another picture of our front room. The chest that the tv is sitting on used to be a dresser that trevor and I redid. It was a lot of fun to do. That is our house. I would have taken one of our bedroom but trevor wouldn't take the swing down!!! HA HA HA!!! Just kidding obviously! We are counting down the days until a year is up and we can have our own place again. Although we are very blessed to be where we are.
So far we love Boise. It is feeling more like home all the time. I got called to be the Valiant 9 teacher and the Achievment Days assistant. Im really excited about these callings. I really enjoy working with the young kids. Tevor has yet to get a calling. He has not complained yet, I doubt he will. He is really enjoying his job and is being kept busy. Its nice to have him home everyday at 5 if not earlier.
All the kids are doing great. Happy, healthy, and very energetic.
Thanks to Grandpa Barwick we all know how to do headstands. Even Trevor who probably does the best out of all of us. Its something to see!!! One day I will get a picture of it to show you all! Stacey I know you tagged me and I will post it tomorrow!

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Knowledge

Our dinner tonight was filled with little tid-bits of new knowledge for our kids. It started with me quoting a saying my mom used to say "Tough titty said the kitty when the milk ran dry." I've said it for years to my kids and tonight was the first time they ever asked what a "titty" was. Trevor taught the kids "tallywacker" and "willywang" (I think that was what the last one was...I'm no good at remembering the technical names) We told a few riddles and then chased each other around the house trying to put underwear on each others heads. It's times like these that make me remember my own childhood and how much fun we used to have together...Thanks Mom and Dad!
