My Creative Kids

Jenna is really creative!
We were given recently a whole bunch of these stuffed snakes.
They are suppose to be going to bed and they come down stairs like this.
My parents and I had a good Laugh!!!

We had decorated the downstairs for a party and the kids loved the streamers so much they wanted to decorate their rooms!

They did this all on their own with no adult help or ideas!!

Who knows what they will come up with next!!!!

The Rainforest

Our good friend, Jacob, turned 8 this week.
So we helped his mom throw a surprise party for him,
they gathered at our home and then we took the kids
to the Cleveland Zoos Rainforest!

There were a total of ten kids! It was a really good time!
And I think Jacob was very surprised and very happy!!

An Ant eater!

Crazy kids!!!

My two!

I think I should come more often!
It is green and warm, a little smelly. But, still green and warm!!!!

New Years Day Sledding!!!!

It was so cold out but, the kids did not seem to notice! We had a great time!

Girl Scout Cookies

Jenna has begged to join Girl Scouts with a couple of good friends from school. I have finally caved. So Jenna is now a Daisy Scout just starting this month! Well, they are in the middle of selling Girl Scout Cookies. If you are interested please e-mail me and let me know! I hate to ask since I know money is tight right now! I personally am excited to buy my own secret stash of Samoa's!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you!!!

To Me, From Me

Great minds think alike! And this is not the first time we have done this!

Happy New Year!

This picture was taken on Christmas Day as we were driving to Great Wolf Lodge! The kids loved seeing a rainbow! It was beautiful! Symbolizing Hope!

2009 has been a great year!! I did not accomplish all my goals but did accomplish many things!
