Mt. Spokane Hike and a Moser Visit

Jeff and I had so much fun hiking with Nessa earlier in the winter, that we woke early and took her on another hike!  The kids were tired and wanted to sleep in, so we were kidless, which was WEIRD.

And that evening the Mosers came up and we visited at KT's...we had a birthday present for Miss Janie, and had so much fun loving on those cousins!

 

January Wind, Woodworking Projects, and School Excellence

Long Nessa fur...and Jeff's closet project for Grace's room!

We found a Beef Barley soup recipe that we really loved.   And I still couldn't take down the tree...

I love switching out the kids' school pictures each year...aren't these sweet progressions?

Kaitlyn and Luis and Matthias got their ornament and Grace got some sweet school work recognition.

The WIND blew...this tree fell across the road, making my work commute a little longer...and Nessa's fur in the wind CRACKED US UP.

The Beginnings of 2021

Jeff made ski racks for the garage!  So great...

We got a new plant for Grace's narwhal, and my students that I met with online on Wednesdays helped send KT a birthday message!

Not a lot of snow this January, but a lot of FUR!!!

Grace's schedule changed a bit...instead of going to school every-other Friday, all kids learned remotely on Fridays.  She LOVED these days...sometimes the Van Sickles would come learn from OUR home with her!

Nessa had an exceptionally large laundry collection on this day...if we could only train her to take it to the laundry room!

G'ma Joan gave Nessa this bone for Christmas...she LOVED it!

Puzzles, trying to work from home, and then the Christmas Clean-up...it was hard to put our decor away this year!

Dad helped Micah finish the K'nex vehicle that Shey got him for his birthday.  It was tricky!
