on the iphone || winter 2018


We just received word that there is no school again tomorrow, our sixth "snow day" not counting the day off we had in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. last Monday.  So, out of the last ten days of school, we've been home for seven of them.  I have lots of pictures and memories to record from the record setting Polar Vortex that's settled over a good part of our country the past week, but I'll save that for another post.  Today, while the kids built one massive Lego house that arrived for Mila's birthday in perfect time, I went through phone photos.  I haven't Marie Kondo'ed as much as I would have liked to during all these days off, but my phone is sure sparking me some joy!

On the iphone || Christmas and January...

Christmas scenes from our guest room...

Christmas break Lego builds and all day pjs


We loved Mary Poppins!


Beau and Cruz got creative on New Year's Day.  


Our favorite place to curl up for a book or a game of chess



The excitement of this year's Bears' season and a little boy who fell hard for football.  




Mila and her bestie, Kennedy.  I got to join her for Blessed Beginning's parent luncheon.  Mila led the prayer for the entire room and it was so sweet to see her with her friends.  She's known many of them since they were tiny babies!



One of my last days of winter break, and a morning at Panera with lots of new year planning


Getting creative in the kitchen again, much thanks to another Whole 30 adventure



Mall adventures for Mila's 5th birthday










These two man


One of the worst days and the sweet package on my porch from Jess when we got home from dance and piano.  We had everything we needed for taco night and I felt so loved on and taken care of.  


The start of the snow days!  We made sno-cream for the first time and it was delicious!




Sometimes they talk us into letting them sleep in here.  


Cruz loves his new "writing desk" and staged it with lots of treasures.  





Lots of snow day fun!  Much more to come from this epic January at home.
