Have you ever try this?  Putting marshmallow creme and vanilla wafer roll in your hot cocoa.  Yummy!  All winter long we have been enjoying this simple treat.  My kids seem to ask for it every time they come in form playing out in the cold.

This morning was golden moment,  my 6 year old daughter made us breakfast in bed.  As you can see from the picture, the food wasn't gourmet but the effort superb!  
When asked her how she did it,  because we usually get her breakfast.  She said it was really hard work.  She had to pour full gallon of milk (Ahhh) on to the cereal and then carry the trays up a steep flight of steps.  Plus she had to do it twice, one for Mom and one for Dad.
Then I came downstair and got her a bowl of cereal.  Ya, no bowl left used them for soup last night. Dishwasher is running, now.
This was best part of this week by far!  Everyone was sick with highly contagious viral infection.  I am glad it is the weekend and everyone starting to feel better.

Yes, it time to get this house a shaking.  Fear that I would do just that, shake the floor to much, my husband bought and installed an extra support beam above the room I am exercising in.
Exercising with My Kids
2 minutes into the workout my kids go get me water.  
4 minutes into the workout my kids complain about their sides hurting.  They think they drank to much water. 
6 minutes into the workout, they yell back at the lady in the video. Saying "I don't love this one"- after the workout lady said it would be their favorite excerise.
10 minutes into workout can I just go and play now.
I am starting off with these basic aerobic workout, where husband trying to jump right in and do the Insanity workout. Go hubby!

When my kids see a laundry basket, they think fun. It is basketball hoop, hockey or soccer goal,  or just place to put your barbie dolls.   I have been finding my laundry baskets in the toy room more then in the laundry room. 
Even the little guy was enjoying a cat nap in the basket.  Actually, an unfold load is under him waiting for me.  I dislike laundry, the never ending job!

I enjoy taking my kids to the library and find a good book.  The book we read was called, Willow The Snow Dance by Denise Brennan Nelson. We tried out the Snow Day Dance, and it worked.  Maybe you could try it out, we all could use a day off.

When the weatherman is predicting the chance of precipitation, follow these directions:
1. Before going to bed put your pajamas on inside out and backwards
2. Tape a penny to your door or put a spoon under your pillow, whichever you prefer. (Did both)
3.Get up on your bed and do a dance.  The sillier, The better! (The really enjoyed this.)
5.Get your family to do it with you.  The more people that participate the better. 
It actually worked, no school!  They got to sleep in and watch Disney Channel, which are both super exciting for my kids.

Sorry, I been gone for so long.  I thought I would have more time to keep up on my blog but I found out three kids means 3x the workload.  Plus,  I just needed to stop and re-organize.
After regrouping the pictures by month, I realized that I average 300 plus pictures a month. I take a picture almost everyday.  Wow, now my goal is to print at least 5 photo's a month.  My dad always ask me " what is good about  taking pictures, if  you can't see them." My 5 pics of the month of January are....

Last month we been getting into the sport fever.  Between watching basketball, cheerleading, football, and wrestling my children have become sport pretenders.
Always need a good announcer.
Wore this outfit to game to cheer on her super star cousin!
Made this big sign to run through just like their cousin team did.  A fun time and lots of laughter.
