February - Fun & Fast

We started February out with a visit from the Waters.  They were our first official over night guests in our new house.  We celebrated with some serious active play at Fisher's physical therapy gym and then home made personal pizzas.  It didn't take much to entertain the Waters.  The kids were thrilled to play non-stop and the parents so the parents could just visit. 

Spud is keeping me busy and I am constantly trying to find new activities that he enjoys.  One of his current favorites is the wheat bin.  It keeps him busy for quite a while and it also makes a big mess (which is probably why he enjoys it).

Berry is easier to entertain and enjoys quiet play, coloring, and learning time.  She is becoming quite adept at writing her name.
Paisley brought this cute lederhosen back from Germany and it fits Spud just perfectly.  He was quite the ham while we tried to get a good pictures of him.
The saddest day in February was the day that Paisley moved to Utah.  We have loved living in the same city as her.  We will miss her dropping by for lunch or to just say Hi.  We will miss going on outings with her.  She started her first job as the English content editor for "FamilyShare" at Deseret Digital Media.
We also celebrated my birthday!  Fisher took me skiing.  I can't remember the last time just the two of us went skiing... definitely pre-Arizona.  We were amazed at how many runs we could do in an hour and equally amazed at how tired our legs were.  I guess I am getting older.  We celebrated with the kids too.  The girls planned some fun surprises and insisted on making me breakfast and dinner and they did a pretty good job.  It was a lovely birthday.
 The combined fourth grade classes at Curly's school put on a musical about the Lewis and Clark expedition.  It was well done and very entertaining.  Curly is on the front row next to the girl in green.  Her role was an aid to the president.

And that was February.
