31/365 {you gotta…}

know when to hold them…

Matthew must, because even though it’ s not evident in this pic, Matthew won!

30/365 {party girl}

All dressed up to go to a party… if she is like this when she is 5 I can only imagine what it will be like down the road…I think we are in trouble….

29/365 {baseball}

We aren’t big fans in my house, but baseball = spring… so bring it on… Riley is ready (and so are we).

You wouldn’t  guess that it was a brisk 10 degrees today by the looks of this pic.  I took exactly 3 shots and then went in (he was right behind me)

14.5 weeks now…time is flying

28/365 {celebrate}

Not only do I know one person with a birthday today but I know 2… must be a special day.

Happy birthday Mom

And to my bff’s daughter…

Happy birthday J…11, wow, how did that happen…you and Matthew are growing up way too quickly…seems like just yesterday you guys were sharing the double stroller

Hope you both have a great day and all your birthday wishes come true…we’ll have some cupcakes today on your behalf!

27/365 {read}

Last night I got into bed at 8:30, was nice and cozy and read for a bit.  A perfect way to  spend a cold night.  It was awesome.

Hoping to do the same tonight…

26/365 {Snow much fun}

the last of the tubing pics…

We got to the “hill” around 5pm.  The kids were all psyched and ready to hit the slopes so to speak.  So, after we got all the tickets, we sent everyone on their way…all 123 of them!  Yes, that’s right, our trip included 123 middle school kids, a few siblings and some great chaperones and it all went off without a hitch!  Our numbers were up by close to 30 this year; we were excited about that.  The night was perfect, the air was warmish…close to 40 degrees and those Ugg’s were worth every cent…my feet stayed toasty!  That said, I wasn’t outside the whole 4 hours, my friend, Julie and I did walk up to the ski lodge to grab some dinner, but seriously, they did stay warm.  I will be getting another pair…lol

It was pretty dark and hard to get pics and I was busy hanging with my friend…but I did mange to grab a few snaps of my crew…although none of Andrew….he wouldn’t be seen with me..ha ha.  (that’s not really true but I was trying to be the cool mom and not embarrass him with his friends… ;) )

on the way up the hill…the big light was shining directly in the face… :)

it’s good to the princess and get pulled; they were waiting in line for the up hill people mover…Syd was too tired to walk up the hill.  You can only ride one person per tube but you can connect up to 4 tubes… the kids loved tubing together

after the last run down the hill… he was tired and ready to go home

Josh, Matthew’s bff  was there since his brother is in middle school… good times for my boys and their friend!
