First of February

On our way to my cousin's baby blessing and these girls were just too cute!

Matching Valentines day shirts, yes please!

(Thanks Sami!)

Happy Birthday to my baby brother!

I remember when you were born so well.. especially since I was there.. 

Sometimes when we stop by Grandpa's house he gives all of the kids ice cream.

That's what Grandpa's are for!

This is what y Saturday nights look like these days.. and I couldn't be happier about it.

Before I know it, these days will be over.

Sweet baby Rosie was blessed this weekend. We drove up for her special day.

It was a beautiful blessing by her Daddy. I'm so happy for Bizzy and Tyler, they have such a wonderful family.

Jack loved playing with his cousins

After working hard all afternoon Ryan brought me some lunch :)

In honor or what would have been my Mother-in-law Sandy's 66th birthday we all enjoyed some chocolate!

She always had these in a bowl on her counter. It's weird to think she's been gone for almost three years. 

Ella loves activity days! She was extra excited when they said they were having a Daddy- daughter date!

They made this frame together! I'm so grateful for these two!

Sometimes she just wants me to take a picture of her.

At over 18 months old.. THIS is still something we are having to deal with.....

Lila LOVES birds! Every time she sees one she screams and wants to go and see it!

One afternoon while running errands with Grandma we stopped by the pet store. She couldn't have been happier!

 

Sarah, Liam and Anderson came to visit!! Anders can sometimes be shy, so I was thrilled when he cuddled up to me and fell asleep :)

The Last of January

I started a little bunko group in my neighborhood. 

Lila was a good helper as we bought all of the prizes!

All ready!

There was a great turnout, we are going to keep it going!

Can't wait until next month!

(Special thanks to Lisa who helped!)

A little dessert after some Chinese. The kids always want Chinese, but it's so hard to find a good place.

I hate homework! I think that I hate it more then they do!

My Dad loves going out for breakfast.

So on we all went out to get some donuts at a new place down the street.

SO yumy!

After donuts we drove down for Brielle's birthday party.

These girls have been friends since before they were born :)

Happy Birthday Bri-Bri!

Lilly is LOVING being in ballet! She looks forward to it every week!

Oh.. what a life...

Sometimes when I'm out shopping and the girls start getting crazy, it makes me go crazy.

Nothing a little Culvers can't fix.

Most mornings Lila is pretty sad when Daddy has to go to work. I'm pretty sad too.

Another day of running errands and another day of lunch out.

The kids always want to go meet them for lunch at school. 

The babies love it too!

Recess after lunch. Ella loves showing off her baby sisters.

It was 100 days of school- Jack had 100 band-aids all over his body!
(Thanks for the idea Ashlee!)

Loved finding this posting in the hall! Which one if Jack?

Jack and his friends are totally into Pokemon right now. They trade and play every recess.

Ella had her science fair judging. She was pretty nervous, but I think she did great!

All of the kids wanted to have sleepovers.. 

We don't normally have people sleepover, but made a special exception.

Ella's Science Project

The 6th grade is putting on a science fair.
Ella and Ryan decided to test building supplies for flammability.
 

Safety first!

They tested Sheetrock, carpeting, treated 2x4, electrical wire and laminate flooring.
Carpet lost big time. (I couldn't believe how bad it was!) and Sheetrock won for the longest time to burn.

Ella watched a timer and took very good notes.

I loved they these two did it together.
Only a couple of days until the science fair where she will have to show off her hard work!
