Pictures, Moose, Food, Piano !!!

Sooo glad its thursday, my love comes home in the morning. I'm needing some adult conversation after 3 days of talking about super heros and power rangers I'm going a little crazy here. After we left the grocery store I drove to the flood range to take pictures of the beautiful sunrise. As we were driving around I told Lan man that I wish we could see a moose with a rack since all we have seen are females of babies, and all of a sudden I look up and there he was walking up a hill of course he got over before I could stop but I know where to look. We came home and and cleaned , I cooked a delicious beef stew, and then me and Lan-man made so yummy oatmeal cookies. While Landyn was practicing his piano I took a few snapshot of him they are really cute.

He is shirtless( as usual) but I did a 1960's look on the picture with the cornered edges

He has his tongue out a little bit, it was out more but he poked it back in when he saw me trying to take a picture of him. That is what he does when he is concentrating.

New day new hobby

Another great day hanging out with my kiddos, after we finally got the truck to crank( apparently you need to plug your truck up if its -40) we had some running around to do in town. Came home me and my little buddy watched Real Steel pretty good movie.  I finally decided to try a new hobby, and its going pretty good I think :) Im making a blanket now I will picture it later, but here is the next thing I will be working with its my favorite color purple !!

So after taking to some people and looking at the picture a while it seems to have yellow cast, so I tried to play around with it a little bit I like them both but I think the new one here is not so yellow. One day I will get this editing down :)

~~An Early start To my Day ~~

I had a pretty good day, it started a little to early for me but thats ok. My sweet girl decided we should see daddy out the door at 5:30 this morning. We tried to take a nap a couple times but that doesnt go over so well with a bored 7 yr old. Come on school start back :) But its always a good day when Im with my kiddos I<3 them. Titian seemed to be a little tired too, but he got up earlier than we did he always follows his dad around the house.

Out in the cold

Another day of relaxing around the house staying warm inside for me and sis anyway. My sweetie aka(Will) and Lan-man aka(Landyn) braved the cold to clear the snow off the back deck. It was a lot warmer today than it was yesterday. Today it was -11 but that is pretty good compared to the -40 from yesterday. one thing we found out is YES!! your mustache will freeze when it is -11 out here is the proof :)
