It's Following Me!


So I got home last night. It was perfect. We went out to dinner, and then we came home and unpacked all the presents I brought back. But the best part about it was that last night @ 7pm it was 60 degrees outside. There wasn't even any snow on the grass or anything. Then this morning, Jon shoveled about 4 inches off our drive way. I thought I have to go out and play in it with Marcella, even though I am getting a little tired of Snow. (It snowed at Jeff and Carolines, the day I got there, let's just say they still have snow.) I want to go to the park and feed the ducks and play on the slide, which is what Jon and Marcella got to do on Sunday. Those lucky ducks!


So in spite of it all, Marcella and I had fun playing in the snow. She actualy left her gloves on so she was able to play int he snow for about 45 minutes, instead of 45 seconds. so it was fun.



This is her atempt at a snow angel, only she didn't want to put her head on the ground.

She loves eating it! Yum!



Here is our snowman. I went inside to get some stuff for his face and Marcella had knocked him over, so after building him a second time. It was all I could do to hurry and get a few pictures before Marcella took his nose and started eating it again. It sure was fun though. It was perfect packing snow. I can't believe it. It has been snowing all day, sometimes harder than others, but yep it is still snowing. Well, I hope you all have a fun day in the snow!

Memories

So as most of you know, my husband is a workaholic. Just kidding, there are just a billion hockey games this month so I feel like he hasn't been home in ages. So as I am sitting here playing my 1000th game of Solitaire (yes I think I am the only one who still plays that game) I thought I would take a minute to reminicse. I started browsing through my pictures and I came upon this one. Look Familiar?

Besides it being blurry, how can you not look at this picture and long to be in Europe. If this picture doesn't do the trick this next one will.


I don't think I have ever gone to another place in the world, (granted I haven't been many places, but...) and seen something as totally weird as this. You can only get away with that in Europe. It is a little hard to tell, but that cart is connected to the bike.


Then I just started remembering the whole trip. What an adventure. Something I always look back on with a laugh and a desire to go again.

This picture got me to start laughing when I looked at it. Yes it is a bit blurry, but It brings back so many memories. First there is the motor home, then Jeff standing in the rain, holding everything so Caroline could find something. Man I just remember when Jon and I decided to take that picture it was such a funny sight that we were laughing the whole time. Maybe that is why it is a bit blurry.


The eating Table/bed for two/clothes dryer/game station. Don't you want to go back?


Man and last of all this picture is actually in my bedroom and I get to look at it almost everyday when I actually pay attention, and it makes me want to go back to Europe the most. I can't wait until Jon and I can go again. It is such a fun place. So different than here, I love it! Maybe we will live there someday and all of you can come and visit. Well, I better get back to solitaire, but I hope all of you have a great evening!

Burn

So yesterday was suppose to be a relaxing day. One where I could sit and read my book and Marcella would magically entertain herself. Then I would take a nap and have my lunch brought to me and someone would feed Marcella, clean up her messes and put her down for a nap. Then I woke up. (Don't you just wish sometimes it could be like this, maybe just one day a week would be perfect!) Anyways, after getting everyone breakfast and cleaning up the Kitchen I decided to waste my time checking my email and the blogs in hopes that someone had updated so i could have an excuse to be on the computer. While doing so Marcella was playing so well in her bedroom. I went to check on her and She was in between her crib and changing table behind her space heater, so I told her to come over here so she wouldn't get hurt and she got a lovely burn on her hand. It was super sad.


These pictures aren't the best, but it blistered up pretty fast and good luck trying to keep ice on it or anything for that matter. So long story short I was able to put a bandaid on it so it won't break open and get infected, cross my fingers.

So here she is today, finally used to her bandaid and not trying to take it off. She is so funny. She now comes up to me and say "owwww" and has me kiss her bandaid. What a cutie pie. Well, I hope that all of you are having a splendid day. PS can you see her second tooth on top! YEA!!!
