A Star Wars Spa Night.

The boys did a Star Wars night which included popcorn and candy.
Joshua lasted for a lot longer than I expected before he fell asleep.
And Stephen had no problem at all staying awake.
I think Trevor may have dozed at one point.


While the boys enjoyed their movie, us girls gave each other facials, painted our nails and I braided the girls hair.
We first steamed our faces, then exfoliated with baking soda and finished it off with a ginger oatmeal mask.
Oh, it was heaven.
And then we painted hearts on our nails.
We're so festive!
Here we are with our oatmeal masks. They dried so tight to our skin~ it felt wonderful (and a little itchy)!
Anna looks kind of crazy...


Emily looks really happy....


And I look old...(and like I have a booger coming out my nose but no worries...it's just oatmeal)


But that's okay because I'm growing up and so are my girls.
It was a great, great evening.
I absolutely LOVE spending time with my girls!
Who knew that having kids could mean built in best friends?

I'll have to give that oatmeal mask a try one of these days! My mask of choice is usually an avocado but Chris gets mad when I waste one of those on my face. He just doesn't understand the price of beauty!

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...
