Happy Valentine's Day!


What do you like to do best on Valentine's Day?
Eat candy and lie around
Give out cutesy little cards
Say I Love You to your "special someone"
Build snow forts!!!
  
pollcode.com free polls

Well I don't know about you, but I'm sure the kids from our family would either choose the first or last answer to that poll. ;) There are lots of snow forts all over our yard, made up of mounds of snow, and a few have really cool caves inside.
Here's Alexander in the snowplow-pile that is currently under contruction (tunnels and such) and I think he's out there working on it right now.

Abel looks in on his fort while I take his picture.

Caroline hollowed out both of the caves that we have now. Here she is by one of them.

Here's Benjamin in Nathanael's mound/cave.


Have a great valentine's day building snow forts, eating candy or whatever you do and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

Kitchen remodeling, girls' weekend, birthdays

To get the house ready for the move (or it might be because the cupboards are falling off...) we are remodeling our kitchen. Here are 3 pictures showing the different stages of the process:

1. The kitchen- empty and void for the first time we've lived in this house

2. After everything got ripped out

3. Almost completed, we'll take another picture when the tile is put in on Tuesday.

A few weeks ago Liz took the girls and 4 friends up to the Whiteface Lodge for a Girls' Weekend. Going around the table from left to right starting with Sarah Green: Sarah, Suzanne Taddeo, Elizabeth, Sarah Taddeo, Arnesia Glisson, Hannah, Susannah, Caroline, and Debra Glisson

Happy Birthday Nathanael!! He turned 9 on January 30th.
