Fun times in February!


Wow.  Where did February go!?  We did a lot and had fun...but it went so fast!!
Mom and Dad have been getting spoiled, on weekend mornings these days...the boys have been getting up, will get dressed and then will close the door to Mom and Dad's bedroom.  Then they come out to the kitchen and make their own breakfast! 

A few clean dishes from the dishwasher, a little High Fiber Cereal and milk and they are happy boys!

This month we were also very excited to get the big boy beds that Grandpa made!

We painted their room and made space for the two new big beds!  Grandpa really knows how to make our boys happy!!  And we got so much extra storage space...12 drawers on each bed frame!!  Yea Grandpa!!

The boys were almost as excited about their reading lamps as getting new beds!


This month we had quite a few nice days...including this one where we went for a hike with some friends.  All the kids had so much fun at this tiny creek and bridge...

...that we ended up staying at this spot for about an hour!  The kids were moving rocks, making dams, and sending anything that floated down the rapids.  The simple joys are the most rewarding!

The boys are really enjoying chapter books these days...it means longer reading sessions!

Mom and Dad got to get dressed up to attend the Corvallis Montessori's annual auction dinner.

Dylan is taking these pictures...not bad!  The boys got to go to their own party at the school while Mom and Dad were at the fancy dinner...pizza and movies for the boys!  Cole saw that Mom and Dad were getting dressed up and said that he wanted to look pretty too!  So he went to his closet and put on a short sleeve button up shirt and then a long sleeve button up shirt over that.  He was desperately trying to find his clip on tie...but alas it couldn't be found.

Dylan asked where the rest of my dress was (the sleeve), and said if I just lifted up that side of the dress the waist would be even too.  I told him that it was supposed to be off the shoulder and have a off center waist.  He just gave me a look like that was crazy!
Cole took this shot of Mom, Dad and Dylan!

Notice the Elvis tie!

It was fun to have an opportunity to get dressed up and raise money for the boys school!

It is sunny here in the winter...sometimes!
This is a self portrait of Cole.
