Great Wolf Lodge


Here are a few pics from our trip to the Great Wolf Lodge this weekend. The water park was awesome, however, the chlorine level in the air was way too high. Peter was sick the past few days so he just coughed and coughed and spent more time in our room because he couldn't breathe. My eyes burned just from the air. Other than that we had fun!...LOL The second day was a bit better and Peter was able to go on a few of the water slides. Devin and I went on 2 of the big water slides together.....the toilet was our favorite. Its actually called the Coyote Cannon but the idea of it is like a toilet. I did that one with Peter also...also a favorite. Logan attempted to go with me but he changed his mind rather quickly as we loaded on the tubes. He did go on the medium size slides though. Maybe next time. If we go back, it will be during the summer. There is an outdoor area also so the doors will be opened that connect the 2 which should help with the air quality.

Peter, Megan and Keira


Megan and Keira came down for a visit from Vermont again. It was very painful for Peter to have to smile for the camera but he suffered through it.

Happy Birthday to me


My nieces and nephews made a cake for me and surprised me with it last night. That was so sweet of them!

A prayer answered


This was the view out the front window this morning. Sebastian's prayers were answered...he had lots of snow to play in today. We didn't see any of it fall as it all fell overnight.

The kids had fun in the snow today too!

Dear God....


Please make it snow...I love the snow!

The 3 Amigos

The lost tooth

Devin got up yesterday morning and says Mom, I've got good news and I've got bad news"..."I lost my tooth but I think I swallowed it"....He searched the bed but it was no where to be found. He wrote a letter to the tooth fairy explaining what happened and was very surprised that she left him a dollar. He was expecting a letter back.....which may of happened if the tooth fairy had not forgotten until 6 this morning. We did have a snow storm last night so the tooth fairy might have had transporation difficulties...right??? I bet that would of worked if I needed a quick explanation as to my forgetfullness...I mean the tooth fairies forgetfullness.

a general update

Boy have we been busy. I haven't had time to sit down and write a decent post. I am still adjusting to being back at work. I really don't like going to work...LOL I don't mind the job itself but I would just assume be a stay at home mom. I also got called into the birthing center last night so I was up all night tending to 2 of Gods new creations. I got hom this A.M at 5:45...slept for an hour...got the kids up for school...slept for an hour and half and then spent 2 hrs in a dentist chair. Then it was off for my CT scan. Came home...got the kids off the bus..dinner...and then off to boy scouts. This is pretty much how my days have been for the past week...running from one thing to another and I am tired!

Our weather the past 3 days has been wonderful! high 50's -mid 60's. Peter was able to take his homeschool co-op karate class that he is teaching outside for their class yesterday. The only drawback is all the mud!. The yard is swamp like in some area.

Devin and Logan both tried out Karate this past week and they both enjoyed it. They will be joining Peter in karate twice a week starting next week.

I am fading fast so I am off to bed....
