February Rewind

February Rewind

Seems like since Christmas was here the world has been in hyper speed and I feel like I am trying to catch up with myself, my health, my kiddos, and my house work. In other words, crazy lovely life! Lots has been going on here. Trying to organize my life ans the house as best I can while my little ones especially Natty Noodle goes around behind me undoing all my hard work. Nadalynn has been a busy little bee potty training. She just seemed so interested and she is really doing a great job for a 19 month old. Makayla has been trying to learn how to ride her bike. Every day that it hasn't been snowing and raining Makayla has been out practicing riding her bike. She has been getting pretty close a few times but something about this brisk wintry evening gave her the confidence to really go for it! She did it!

I thank my crafty friends for their inspiration. My organized friends for their inspiration to get organized. My friends and family for their care and thoughts after my car accident in Honduras. Makayla for helping Nadalynn accomplish so much for a lil' tike. Makayla's little friends Karlee, Ashley, and Brianna for the encouragement to try and try again!

A winter play date with girl friends. Now we meet at McDonald's, some day they will meet at the mall, and before we know it they will rent a summer house and bring their friends up. I like to take time to enjoy life's little moments.

Paradise Vacation

Vacation week always seems to go so quickly. This means two things; I always try to get as many pictures of it as possible ( Somewhere to go when you need to visualize a happy place), and learn to try new things! After all, you are on vacation, when else would you do it?

The Western Caribbean is an amazingly beautiful cruise. The weather is amazing, the views are spetacular, and having good company makes all the difference for great memories. Thanks to Dr. Nord we had an incredible vacation and got to make plenty of new memories and have lots of laughs with some wonderful people I work with. One or many inside jokes are now part of our daily routine. It is also nice to see all of our husbands bond, they are all quite entertaining together.

Our ports included: Cozumel, Grand Caymon, Roatan, and Costa Mya. We also had a little time on the day we got on the ship and the day we got off. Visiting FL was really fun. It made it hard to come home to the snowy weather. You might aldo notice a picture of our accident in Roatan in the pictures below. We are all currently recovering well from this accident. Thanks for your thoughts!
