February already???

Is it really February already? I love how fast winter is going by because it's not my favorite season, but the other seasons are going just as fast! In just 2 weeks we will be driving to Georgia/Florida!! Vacation here we come...

Last year I made a little Valentine station for all of us to take the time to send a little note of love or encouragement through the month...Autumn reminded me yesterday it's time to get them out again! A digging in the basement I will go!

Found our family mailboxes!!!

Bedtime for Levi...

The other night it was bedtime for Levi and I walked him upstairs and did or usual routine (brush teeth, say prayers and laid him in bed)...Levi knew daddy was working and was pretty creative with a reason to sleep in mommy's bed! He started to whimper and it went like this:
Levi - I can't sleep in my bed.
Me - Why not?
Levi - Because there is a black stinky shoe in my bed.
Me - A black stinky shoe? Where?
Levi - under my covers hiding.
Me - I don't see it.
Levi - it has one eye and talks to me.
Me - what does it say?
Levi - I don't remember.
Me - well we prayed and asked God to protect you so no need to worry! He is with us!
Levi - well, can I sleep in your bed?
Me - No! But Alex can sleep on your floor if you want him to.
Levi - ok.

Alex slept there and as they were falling asleep I could hear Alex telling Levi how God was going to protect them and no need to fear!! So sweet! Levi continued to talk about the "one eyed black stinky shoe that talks" for a couple of days...pretty descriptive for a 3 year old!!! He cracks me up!!!

Snow Day!!!

Kids had a snow day yesterday... We slept in and stayed in our pjs ALL day!!! In the afternoon we put snow pants and boots on and went out to play! The weather has been crazy again this year in Michigan! 2 inches of snow one night and 42' the next day! Rain last night with a high of 56' today...crazy!!!
