Rough Sunday...

Sundays are rough for Talia.  We have church at 1:00...which means she misses her nap (unless she falls asleep in church which usually doesn't happen.)  She uses all her self control to stay awake so she doesn't miss nursery.  But it catches up with her sometimes...like at dinner last night.  We were talking with Eliza about her primary class and then looked over to see Talia like this.  Asleep.
Her nursery leader caught us on the way out of church and had to share a story with us.  They talked about families and so each child brought a picture of their family to show.  When Talia was asked how many siblings she had she of course said one sister.  Then she was asked if she plays with her...Talia's response?  "No, we just fight."  Proud parent moment.  For the record, they do fight but they also really love each other.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

The girls spent a good portion of St. Patrick's Day trying to track down the leprechaun that seemed to keep showing up around our house...or the "U-can" as Talia calls him.
 He left green Lucky charms and muffins for breakfast.  When Brayden came over they found clues he had left that led to his pot of treasures!
 And this is what they found!
We had a yummy dinner with family...including a fruit rainbow!
Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Saturday project...

I've been wanting to make cushions for our window benches since we moved in.
 I'm not quite sure what finally motivated me to do this project but we did it...and it turned out great.
 The girls love it...now we need to get some more material to finish the other side!

We want Spring!

We're trying our hardest to get Spring to come soon!
Last Friday night we went and picked up Dad after work and ran over to the park before the sun disappeared.  Now if only we could get warm weather to come with some of these sunny days!  At least we're not getting snow...sorry Aunt Elayna!
