A few random pictures

Some of Tara's birthday gifts.  Iceskate earrings and a scarf.
She's changed a little since turning 13.  She came home and said she raised her hand 3 times in social studies and was called on all 3 times.  I told her its because her teacher's in shock....she hasn't said "peep" all year.  Tara says she's trying very hard to not be shy anymore.  (It's really killing her, but she keeps trying).  She has assignments every week for sunday school class now.  This week was to pray for a missionary experience.  She said..., "I'm just going to ask Kristin to come." and she did....and Kristin came.  She brought the missionary experience.  Makes it look so easy.

This is our dining room table while it is freezing outside and Dad's out of town....the perfect playground for now.  It's the first time in a long time all 3 kids have sat around and been content with each other.  Yay for legos and all the possibilities!

Gene's car covered in ice Friday- am now calling AAA 'cause it won't start.....yay for winter!

Last weeks weather snow covered porch.

What do beehives like doing?  I have no idea, they don't really tell me.......they really don't have any interests.....just like smiling and talking in soft, sweet voices!

Emily's BFF necklace made by her friend.  She thinks this is the best way to wear it!
She forgot her reading book and was so extatic to realize she could download it on her kindle.  It's a beautiful thing catching up on 5 chapters ofThe  Lion,the witch and the Wardrobe.  Yay for technology at the tip of our fingers. ( I just would have had to take the ZERO back in my day!)
