? Snow What ?

I never thought I would see it snow in Apache Junction, AZ but today I did. It snowed for a good 5 to 10 minutes at our house. It didn't stick to the ground or anything but it did snow. The kids just loved it! Keanan was so excited he just wanted to go play in it and Olivia didn't know to think about it. Well I've been made into a lair today, but I'm okay with that. I'm always telling Keanan that it doesn't snow here. Keanan told me "see mom it does snow at our house."

Keanan's Little Shadow

Olivia just loves her brother! She is his little shadow and want everything that he has.


She steels his cloths and underwear and then bring them to us, so that we can put them on her.

My Purse Girl

Olivia has always carried my purse around so for Christmas I made one for her. Its not until resonantly that she started playing with it.

Just one of those Days

It was just one of those days you wished you had just stay in bed and not leave the house.

Poor girl this is her first bruiser. She fell and hit her forehead on a metal door post. It doesn't look as bad as it did last night thankfully.

I have no idea what happen to Keanan, but has another bruised chin and a scratch on his forehead.

Keanan's bike has had another accident. The first time I ran over the back wheel with my car, but it was still drivable. Dan gave me the hardest time about it and wasn't happy that I hadn't payed attention to where I was going. Well yesterday there was another accident, but it wasn't my fault. This time Dan drove over his bike with the truck. Keanan wasn't home at the time and it was so sad that all we could do was laugh about it. When Keanan got home he was so excited that he bike was inside. He ran over to it and before I could tell him what happened. He was on it trying to ride it. It was so sad because it wouldn't go anywhere and Keanan couldn't figure out why.

Freezing Weather

This last week has been really really cold here. I know everyone reading this is probably saying I'm crazy because it never get below 60 degrees here and that's not cold. Believe it or not for several days last week the high was only 30 to 35 degrees. It was so cold peoples fountains here had icicles on them and a lot of the plants here died. Including our poor tree in the front yard.

Keanan's Homework

I have started to do some pre-school work with Keanan everyday. He calls it his homework. I'm amazed at how well he doing with the coloring. He is really good at staying in the lines, for the most part. When he does go out of the line he wants you to fix it. I don't know what other three year old's paintings look like but I was surprised when he started coloring this way.

Bruised Chin

His poor chin. This is the third bruise in two weeks. The first one was the worst. He was so excited for bath time that he was jumping up and down. He slipped and hit his chin on the tub. It skinned it just enough to make it bleed a little. I'm really surprised he didn't split it open and need stitches. The second time happened at church. He was washing his hands and the stool slipped out from under him. He hit it on the sink. The third time he was at a friends house and the same thing happened when he was washing his hands. Poor kid. I am very grateful that he hasn't hit hard enough for stitches. He just has had a beautiful chin the last couple of weeks.

Play Time

I've decided that I don't need to buy anymore toys. All I need to do is get a bunch of boxes, bags, and towels with hoods on them and the kids will be happy.




I love it how they play together now. They have started playing actual games. Here they are playing Hero's.
