Since Saturday.

I have been a bad blogger. I've been sitting around doing absolutely nothing, thinking about all the

"somethings" I should be doing. Okay, not really. I've been busy. Not really busy, not too busy to blog, but

busy. I have no excuses except that I haven't taken any pictures.

But my kids have. Like this one of Joshua that Emily took.


I don't remember exactly who he was dressed up as but it was someone with a mustache and a flashlight.

I have a lot of things I should be doing right now.

Here's an example from a photo I just took so that I could blog today:


There are a few things I need to do in the kitchen; some that are very obvious and some not so obvious.

Obvious:
dishes
clean off table
organize fridge

Not so obvious:
finish painting
sweep
mop
make kids snack

I  love being in the kitchen. I'm always cold and its the one place in my house where I have the most chance

of being warm. Except bedtime where I get to sleep beside a furnace/man who doesn't mind if I put my cold

feet on him. And who will sometimes warm up my side of the bed for me while I wash my face.

And so now, I am off to tackle the kitchen where I can put my cold hands in some hot water.

And maybe later, I'll take and post some pictures of my really sweet and adorable children.

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...)

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.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
