March 2012 - Week 2 and 3

Slim-pickins here again, had to resort to iphone pictures yet again.  Maybe when the weather gets better I'll be more motivated to get out the camera?  So here is another phone dump.

I've been meaning to put the girls hair in rollers forever.  Finally saw some at Walgreens and had to do it.

I remember the torture of sleeping in these things.  The girls didn't seem to mind!

 Need to work on my curler spacing and sizing.  Yikes!

 My new eyemask to combat our neighbors (not Mark and Jeannine, the other side) who like to leave their lights, ALL their lights inside and out in every room on 24/7.  Seriously, even my blackout shades can't hide the light.  Battle is on...

 These 2 when left to their own devices find really weird ways to entertain each other. 

Russian nesting dolls, books and "Rapunzel hair" (blanket wrapped around head) kept them busy for 45 minutes.  I was listening in my room on the monitor.  Hilarious stuff. 

 We were in McCall for St. Patricks Day but we still set traps for those pesky Leprechauns.

 When grandparents are around everyone gets a lap!

 Think they were watching NCAA tourney action?  No, they were watching Tangled with no

kiddos in sight.

 Meredith needed a picture to document what she wears to gymnastics.  I don't know...



Catching Up...

My picture taking has been non-existant.  Not sure if it's the thought of lugging out our big camera or if I am too busy with armloads of kids to take a couple shots?  So here is a phone dump which is pretty pathetic too. Promise more photos this weekend.  St. Pattys day at Brundage!  14" new inches last night, I think Jesse will be requesting some non-kid time on the hill.  Okay...

Snack in a box.  Always a hit.

 Who knew March would be our winter weather month?

 2nd Annual Ladies Only ski trip to McCall.  So so much fun!

 My first (sad!) time in the bar at Brundage.  No kids in sight!

 Umm, I thought this was a good idea but now it looks really gross...what is that color?

 We all have the straightest hair, seeing what foam hair rollers will do for us!

*I was hoping to have some pictures from our last few days with KK and Papa Jim.  Sadly they had to rush off in a hurry to beat some of the weather that we've had in the past couple of days.  We had so much fun seeing them, even for just a little bit.  Major detox for the kids yesterday...*

So here is what we did last weekend.

We neded to get some more use out of our Brundage passes so we mooched off the Brouses and stayed at their place in McCall last weekend.  It didn't snow a ton but enough to break out the biggest snowblower ever made.  Jesse and Josh had a romantic time clearing off the driveway.

 Not a bad afternoon looking at the lake, sipping a cocktail and pinteresting...

 We skiied in the morning which was very shortlived due to the freezing wind and blowing snow.  In the afternoon we ventured outside to do some sleeding down the wicked driveway at the Brouses.  Helmets are a neccessity on this hill!

 Quinn hated every second.

 Meredith loved going down but not the walk back up.

 Taelor and Meredith

 Delaney liked sledding with Dad the best.

 Family photo attempt, fail #98764

 Jesse and a pile of girls.

 The girls put on a 'show' for us after dinner.  Delaney convinced Quinn to dance down below them on her own stage so she wouldn't get in the way.  Tricky sister.
