Inside Out

Our conversation on the ride home today:

Gwyn: You remember that time we ate pizza in front of the tv and we had the little chairs at the table and I fell off the chair?
Me: Yes.
G: That would be a good memory for Inside Out. Yea, that would be a yellow memory.
M: It must have been a fun memory then.
G: Yea. But I was also nervous. And a bit scared. So I guess it would be all the colors. That would be a good memory for Inside Out.


Also, she is reading.

Just FYI

The boys are staying at a friend's house. So Gwyn is sleeping in their room. Adorable.

We have our stove.

Finally. Ask Kevin if you want the story. It took about 3 months, 2 stores, and more hours on the phone than needed to recite War & Peace. But now we can cook without using the bog stove, and we can cook at 3 temperatures!

Date Night!

This post is mostly so that I remember the date. It was such a great night, and I know I will forget it unless I have something to remind me.

I have been very busy at work, and Kevin and I are both trying to do stuff around the house. So we never get time together. (Twice this week I went to bed at 8:00.) I had been telling him that we need a date night.

Friday, while at work, I was told to send a kid to the office. Barely suspicious, I sent a kid, and she walked in with flowers! I don't really like to get flowers for Valentine's Day. I like them on random days. So I was instantly happy. Then I opened the wrapping and saw this note!

Date night!

Sunday Funday

This past Sunday, while I was working on school work, husband was cutting floorboards, and Kevin was playing at a friends, I did the unthinkable. I made Gwyn and Colin play outside. At first, all Colin wanted to do was help daddy, and Gwyn wanted to swing. But after about 10 minutes, they figured out how to play together. And it was awesome! The weather yesterday was over 60, and today was a bit chillier, but still warm enough.

They were getting in and out of the car, and playing in the yard, all the while getting the bad guys that were attacking us. It was adorable. Husband got to listen to most of it since he was using the saw in the driveway. They really didn't even argue, and Gwyn loved the time with Colin. Here are a few pictures so I can remember the day.

Don't ask about the hat. I don't have an answer.

Colin noticed me taking pictures.

We were being attacked from the sky.

Gwyn asked for a picture, so I got a pose!
