sweet sweet romance

this is how i spent my valentines...

i borrowed christians safety goggles
and toolbags.

got a little aggression out
i could have done that all day long!

hanging on by a thread

it used to be my pet peeve
when people would constantly complain
about always being tired.
ive become that person
thats ALWAYS tired
and yes i complain about it.
sometimes.

miss independent

that pretty much sums up darby right now.

family home evening you are a pain in my butt {sometimes}

i try my darndest to do family home evening regularly.

my kids are crazy for bowling

and seriously they want to go every monday.

sometimes pulling of FHE by myself can

be enough to put me in the crazy house.

last night we had 2 huge meltdowns

a bowling alley that was closing early in 10 minutes,

which caused 2 more huge meltdowns.

then finally we made it.

to a bowling alley.

the kids had a great time as usual.

and it was worth the pains in my butt to get us there.

slow goings

its been so nice relaxing and taking it slow
weve spent most days
{the ones i had off}
in christmas pajamas, playing on my bed,
watching movies.
i really love and miss being with my kids all day.
so im enjoying it while it lasts

a couple gems

i had a wild hair to do a little mini session
with my kids before the snow.
(it snowed later that day)
so i could have a recent pic for
christmas cards and throw on the wall
till i can do a shoot this spring.
it was sooooooo freezing cold,
the lighting was terrible
cause me and chance (my helper)
drove around for like 45 minutes trying to
summon the inner strength to deal with the coldness thereof.
the kids were so good and funny though.
so after i treated everyone to a little
tacotime to warm the heart and soul :)

i really love us
