You are such a good mom. I’m so impressed with the memories you are creating with your kids.

BTW- You asked how many hours I spend homeschooling. We are anywhere from 4 -6 hours per day. K-12 is a pretty rigorous curriculum. We could do it faster if there wasn’t a 18-month-old needing attention and if I could figure out how to be more organized. : )

have you ever seen the show Numbers? they start each episode with statistics like that. VEry cool!
So MN may not have had that much snow (ever), and i think you may be happier to stay out East. But if you ever NEED snow, you may be able to find it here!

How FUN!! In the photo of the kids with their little cousin, I am amazed at how much your girls look alike. Your little one has grown up so much all of a sudden!

well I’d say that just about sums it up! (haha, get it? “sums” it up? I kill myself…)

I’m so glad to be included in those numbers bc this might have just been the best winter ever. I LOVED our time with you guys. and if there’s one thing Eli will grow up knowing, it’s that his family is FUN! thank you guys for being a huge part of that. love you!

Loving this one! I’ve never been a math minded person so it was hard for me to keep up, but I knew the answer was right when I read it!

And you are looking mighty cute preggo!

We’ve been enjoying the snow as much as possible. Except I’m starting to feel a tad stir crazy/cabin feverish.

I need some sun soon….
