february fun!

a little super bowl fun with some of out besties in town...we are sure going to miss them next year! 
 go seahawks!
 my girl is "farm fresh"
 thanks dad and gale for the cute shirt!


 a sweet card evelyn made for her cousin tanner...i just love these!
 this little chunkier hasn't missed many meals! :)
love our chunky babies!
 the girls had a fun overnight in portland with their cousins gwynn and payton.  of course aunt tiff and uncle charlie made it super fun with making their own personal pizzas!  and then we woke up to a yummy breakfast...thanks again for watching our little ladies!
 sweetness!
 just a little bumbo time...

 this girl!  
boy does she have an imagination!  i'm loving all her stories lately about her pet chickens and moose.  she even covers them up with blankets in the garage and she has a big one for the moose.  the other day we were sitting at the table having lunch and she said, "mom, i see an elk and its looking right at me!"  "and i see a moose too!"  "if its still there when dad gets home, i'm going to tell him to shoot it, cut it up and cook it to eat!"  
 ev and amelia entered 8x8 paintings in the art show in town.
evelyn's was an owl, she drew it and painted it all by herself!

 amelia's was a squirrel...they were both so proud of their paintings!
 the cutest running partner ever! :)
 amelia decided she was going to scrub my walls for me...
 i could get use to this! :)
 last week was the logging conference.  with brian and i being on the board it keeps us really busy during the week.
the carter boys and tenbusch girls enjoying the BIG equipment!
 oh these four can get pretty giggly together!
 in some instances..
february sure went fast!  
hope your all have enjoyed our un-winter like weather we have been having!

no school=field trip with mom!

 miss e had presidents day off and it was a gorgeous sunny day so the girls and i decided to take a road trip.
first stop, roaring rapids fish hatchery.  it was awesome!  the girls had the place to themselves and just keep feeding and feeding the fish!
 these sunny days we have been having makes it tough to stay indoors.
 evelyn practicing her photography skills..
 and now amelia's turn... :)
 oh these two!!! ;)
 fish!!!
 lots of lots of big fish!
 next stop silver falls...
 these little ladies hiked over three miles!  
so impressed with them!
going under the waterfall...so fun! 
 hiding out in a cave...
 another waterfall...ev decided that she wants to visit each waterfall at the park, sounds like a perfect bucket list to me!
such a beautiful day to be outdoors enjoying my girls!

valentine fun!

valentines had came and gone but here are a few pics from some of our fun!

evelyn's valentines for her classmates, she had so much fun making these.  
she cut out and signed all 26 of them! 


she is my crafty girl for sure!!!
her teacher requested a no candy valentine party and it was actually a lot of fun.
here is mrs. gibson trying to get the straw on her stick...super fun game!
Ev and a few of her friends giving it a try...
they each got to make their own smoothie to enjoy during the party...
pass the marshmallow was also a fun game, the kids really got the giggles! :)

Ev with a few of her friends...
valentines treats at home...
showing of her heart hat she made at school....
when you have three little tykes, you do it up right at home for valentines...which means LOTS of chocolate covered strawberries and raspberries to eat! :)
and heart shaped waffles with strawberries, whip cream and sprinkles!
miss amelia is so proud of her new beaver shirt, just so happens she got it on valentines right before we went for a hike...i think it made her run faster! :)
i couldn't end a post without a picture of this sweet face!
hope you all felt loved this month! :)
