Weekend





We spent the weekend in Flagstaff with some friends and had a good ole time.

Highlights:

Drinking a gallon of hot chocolate
Being lazy
Whoossing some app at Settlers
Being totally bummed out that there wasn't a lick of snow on the ground and then waking up to a Winter Wonderland Sunday morning
Playing at the frozen "swamp"

I've Shrunk!

I've been 5' 41/2" since 9th grade and have never failed to include that half inch as it is one half step closer to 5' 5". According to Dan, though, I am now 5' 31/2". I made him measure me 3 times just to make sure. Either I have been lying about my height the last decade or I have shrunk a whole entire inch, or Dan doesn't know how to measure. I truly hope it's the latter. Shrinkage is not supposed to happen until you are at least 3/4ths of a century old!

My New Favorite Toy






























Dan has become a shopaholic the last couple years and is always buying new/big/expensive/sometimes-dangerous toys and I always get upset with him initially until I get to play with the toys and then I love them (don't tell Dan though). The Suzuki is my favorite. I love cruisin around the neighborhood on it and taking the girls for rides.
I didn't even include pics of the remote control helicopter, remote control airplane, and remote control car (that was $450. Yes. $450 for a remote control car)
The girls don't know about the shaved ice machine as it is a Christmas present but Dan and I will tell them to go play at the neighbors house so we can eat snow cones and the first thing we do when the girls go to bed at night is bust out the shaved ice machine. Poor girls.

And yes, I am a gun owner now so don't mess with me!

Now, the blow dart gun I'm not too fond of because Dan bought it for Sydney for her 5th birhday! her 5th birthday!

I love the walmart Scooter too because I can drive it with all 3 kids piled on but I love Suzuki best because it's the fastest. Dan actually bought it if for Bo soon after he was born but he can't drive it for a while since he's only 6 mo.
I gave Dan the book "Confessions of a Shopaholic" hoping that he might learn a valuable lesson from it but naturally, he never read it. I wonder what Dan will think of next.
