The problem with iphones

Kurt finally decided that an iphone was the best way to go when our last plan expired and since then we've gotten even more lazy about bringing a camera along. Our pictures have never been anything special but it is getting worse not better. Maybe it's time to take some photo lessons from some of you talented bloggers out there! I'm sure the number one lesson would be iphone camera's will not cut it!

Random pictures will follow

The kids parade

Kurt's b-day cake this year...german chocolate made from scratch, my first try.



The birthday cake my cousin and her children made for me...the blowpop has a story to it.

I let the kids choose whichever peice they wanted...it was awesome

Owen's pants are put on backwards most days (at least the days that I can get him to wear them.) Do all children love to hang out in their underwear? Mine do.

Lucy dressing up her brothers...



and herself

Owen got into the lip liner again and said..."I just wanted to be like the boys on peter pan." the indian part.


A 3D movie with some friends. We saw TRON which made me laugh so hard when I realized what a "boy" movie it was...I kind of looked at Kurt like really? But we had some fun!


3D movie aftermath...

We had a visit from Flat Sally...this is a view from Kurt's office building.

and.....the "picnic" we had planned with our cousins at Kent Falls in CT. The weather was in the 60's that day but we clearly didn't expect that much snow still :) We hiked the icy snow packed trail anyways and I was in my crocks...

Zoo project spirals!

The Kids made a zoo...

Then we drew a map of our zoo--colored and labeled it (first letters only)


Categorizing
Spatial skills
Literacy
Observations
Etc. Etc.

I think our brains grew exponentially during that play time! :)
