A picture worth a thousand words


This picture does not even capture what all happened on this day! These two spell TROUBLE! We were out exploring some land when we see these two walking back like this. Notice my son has no boots on. My daughter has her brother's boots, coat, and hat on! Cole is carrying her boots and wearing an oversized (mom's) sweatshirt (after I gave it to him to wear cause he was shivering!). It is freezing outside.
They tried to jump over a small stream and needless to say did not make it over. (I think this runs in the family! Oh, but that story is for another day!) So, Cole being the great big brother jumps in to save the day. Literally! So, he gave his little sister his warm clothes and dry boots and walked back with her through an alfalfa field in sock feet and they were giggling the whole way! Uncontrollable laughter. I knew this was going to happen when they went down by that water. I sure know how to call 'em. I guess I must be grateful that my boy stepped up and took care of his little sister and had a little fun too. I don't think they will ever forget it. I should have taken video of this moment, but the picture will always remind me of this day.
Oh to be a child again!

HAPPY SPRING






OK, I know I am jumping the gun a few days early, but with the way my life is going right now I will miss getting the greeting out on the first day of Spring so I am doing it while I can!
We had a beautiful day today. The sun came out and it was warm! So me and the kiddos got our mud boots out and took them for a stroll. Me and my little girlie got matching polka dots of course so we can look cute and muddy! Just took a few pics of us being silly. I know I know mine are not muddy yet. They'll get there believe me. Next time we'll all jump in the puddles. The light was fading fast so I took what I could get. Hope you all are enjoying the days being longer and the sun coming out and warming us up again.
Here's to SPRING!
