The Missing Piece

Reagan loves putting puzzles together. She usually works on the ones under her dresser, but we recently pulled out a bin of older puzzles and she found one that she used to LOVE.  It's a mermaid puzzle someone gave her as a gift.  She has been putting it together the past two nights and last night, she asked me to take a picture of the finished product.

"Mom, take a picture and I will hang it on my wall!"

I love my 4-year-old.

Sending our Love

I'm so excited about the package I sent Keith yesterday, which is scheduled to arrive this Thursday. That's right! Valentine's Day! The whole family came together and pitched in notes, magazines, and goodies for Keith so that he'll be sure and feel loved on love's biggest day.

I hope he gets the package on time. I know he will love and appreciate it!

Mommy Cakes

I just love this article from a wonderful blog I follow on a daily basis. Women are definitely the caretakers of other women! Another reason I am so happy to have 3 sisters, 2 daughters, and a great mom! Check out the article when you get a chance and have a fabulous Friday!

Good Morning from North Dakota!

Pancake party

We enjoyed yummy homemade buttermilk pancakes last night for National Pancake Day. They were delicious!

More Snow!

 

Keith had to use the Bobcat to get rid of some of the weekend snow!

Northern Exposure

Here are a few photos from Keith's day on the job site. Makes me want to bundle up by the fire with a warm cup of tea or hot cocoa!

Reagan giggles

Reagan learned about PEACE and QUIET at school and gave me a visual on it.


Recent nighttime and mealtime prayers:

"Dear God, please help my oranges to get good. "

"Dear Lord, help us eat coconuts."
