I didn't take as many pictures as I wanted to. Hosting 25 people on Christmas Eve didn't allow me much time to do so. We had a wonderful Christmas with family....hope you and yours did also!
Carlee's first pony tail. She actually let Aunt Angie put one in. :-)

Okay, so we had another Easter dinner, but at my dad & Nadine's. I didn't realize we were going to attend the get-together until last minute. It was Friday, so just the kids and I took the trip to the big town of Ogema. It was nice to see Terri and Jack this time. I knew the boys would like to play together, so that was one of my main reasons for going. Carter loves visiting people, and they hadn't seen each other in a while so it was the perfect opportunity.

Earlier in the week, the kids and I planted some flower seeds.First step was to cover our table with one of Jay’s old bed sheets (the “A” Team ….lol)We planted Moss Roses, African Daisies, Shasta Daisies, English Daisies (I’m seeing a pattern….can you tell I like daisies?) and Cosmos.We’re not that far into it and Carter tells me “This is boring.”Well, I can see from his point of view how it could be boring right now , but I explained to him that it will be exciting as we watch the seeds grow into beautiful flowers which we will plant in our flower bed when the weather warms up a bit.Carlee lost interest in the whole process after I wouldn’t allow her to dump potting mix onto the floor.
Getting ready to plant flower seeds.

Carlee started singing the “A, B, C’s” this week also.You probably can’t completely understand what she is saying as much as I can, but go ahead and sing the tune yourself and you can probably follow along with her okay.
