A few more.... just because.

The snow finally stopped. Today was another day off from school. However we ventured out for some photos and to get out into the world to have some dinner. The roads all are clear so I'm sure tomorrow school will be open again. *applause!*



Mike is out shoveling yet again..... trying to free the garbage can from it's 4 foot snowdrift it is stuck in for pick up tomorrow. Piper was out helping and it was so funny to see her leap into the snow. I am not kidding that it went up past her back, and when she was doing her nose first plowing through it, all you could see was a yellow tail sticking straight up with snow coming out behind as she dug. It looked like a cartoon.


Here is a little series of my little girl. Who does not look very little in these photos. I'm always amazed at how grown up and pretty she looks.

Of course anymore, there's a few weird poses in between the good ones. Usually I get a peace sign or something like this:

Then she normals out again.

Mike may kill me for posting these pictures. Unlike me, he's not a fan of the snow. I can understand why.....I mean really I have a choice whether or not to go out in it. I get to enjoy it from the warmth of my living room and venture out occasionally. For him, this is what he came home to yesterday after work - a non existent driveway. It had literally snowed ALL day, nonstop since he had left for work at 5:30 in the morning. When he came home he had to dig a space to park the car.

I had even dug some out the day before, and it didn't help at all.

It continued snowing until around midnight last night, so even after these efforts of digging it looked like none had been done again this morning. Other than the fact that the snow drift areas are getting taller and taller. Pretty much the entire area is in what is considered a snow emergency level 2. Which means, don't go anywhere.

I know I'll enjoy looking back at the snow photos this summer when I am complaining about the humidity.

Monday. More snow. Day off from school number....hell, I've lost count.

More snow. You can't even tell by this photo, but it is coming down sideways in little tiny eye stinging flakes. All of that on the deck railing is new from overnight. More is on the way, and they are even saying into this coming weekend. Looks like there may be several more snow days this week....much happiness from the kids. I hope to get out later and take some photos. I love the way the area looks when it's covered in snow.

A quickie page from photos and journaling taken early in 09. This is what I hope to do during the snow day - more scrapping and getting stories down. I'm not motivated to do anything domestic today. LOL. Even though I'm sure I will get around to it in a bit. It waits for me and so far no amount of wishing makes it go away magically!

We were given some tickets a couple of weeks ago to go to a hockey game last night. I had forgotten how much I love hockey. Mike and I used to go to some games in Phoenix.....years and years ago. Tonight did not disappoint as there was a lot of slamming against the glass and even two fights. Usually I'm not a violent person, but something about hockey, you expect it. LOL. It's fun to be rowdy once in awhile!

The kids had a blast. All of the kids were given a tshirt when they came into the arena and it was also $1 City BBQ night. Pulled pork sandwiches for $1 each! Yum. They were really good. - and the Cyclones won. Perfect evening.

There seems to be some debate about whether or not tomorrow is a day off for the kids. Since we have had so many snow days lately, one of the websites says that there is school tomorrow. Lots of groans from the kids. But, there wasn't anything written that came home or any phone calls yet. So we're kind of confused. Add to that, I have a doctor's appointment for Matthew tomorrow anyway, which was purposely made because it was a day off from school! THEN on top of it all, another big snowstorm is supposed to start tonight and it may be another snowday afterall. LOL. Who knows.

I like when the make up snow days are tacked onto the end of the year because I am all about shorter summer vacations. They get so bored so quickly anyway. We'll see what happens tomorrow!

Happy valentines day AND AZ statehood day! LOL. I'll never forget that date even here in the big blue.

Just a quick posting of a couple of pages I've finished. I was so happy to finish the one from a cruise back in 2004. Those were photos I've always dreaded scrapping for some reason. I hadn't taken many pictures on that trip and it just didn't feel right. Thank you digital. Now they are done. (My kids all look so little!)

More boxes unloaded, more homeless stuff taken to the basement, more laundry and chores this weekend. Big family outing tonight. More later!

Happy weekend!

More snow!

Snow day number 2 around here, and the last I saw on the news there is another band that will be making it's way here on the weekend. Have I told you lately..... I love snow? haha.

Actually having the kids home the past couple of days has helped a bit too. It's nice when they are home and I can have a little help getting stuff finished around here. We're down to the last bits of stuff to get put away and are finally back on normal life schedule too. Laundry, cooking, etc. I know, we are incredibly and utterly boring right now aren't we?

Megan took this photo of me, and I had to show off my fabulous new coat. I love coats. And I love Kohl's too. Next year at this time when all the winter coats start going on clearance I am going to go crazy. I'll need a basement just for my coat collection. I loved them in Phoenix and hardly ever had the chance to wear the heavy ones.

Back to work...laundry calls and a certain little boy who is dying to use my computer so he can watch more lego star wars stuff on you tube is peeking at me from behind the stairs.

More snow photos later!

Want to see snow pictures?

I say it every time. I love snow. I love how peaceful it is. The world sounds different when it snows. It's pretty. - and I like it. There may be a day when I am sick of it, but I have to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed having the experience of it in my life and the good and bad that comes with it. - We woke up to the photo above. That's the view from our back window. I have to say, when there isn't snow on the trees I am looking forward to them being green. When it's just cold and dead looking, it's not the prettiest view.

Our garage is full of stuff and probably will be until spring at this point. It's too cold to go out and move anything around. So my car lives outside for the time being. It had about 5 inches of snow on the roof, hood and everything. Mike was dusting and scraping it off the windshield this morning before we did some errands. This big chunk of snow on the hood stayed on while we drove down the freeway. It's kind of a game to see how long it lasts.

Below is a chunk that flew up and stuck to the antenna. It just made us laugh especially with how long it stayed there, so I took a picture of it.

The park near our house:

Lots of bridge covered creeks that I can't wait to walk on when it warms up.

I don't think that our area got as much as was predicted from this storm. Most of it went north of us. We're supposed to get more this weekend. Of course the kids were all kind of bummed that this happened over the weekend making it to where there wasn't a chance of a snow day from school. Bummer.

Still waiting for this storm to hit us. Nothing yet. Here is a layout I did last night while reminding the boys to stop talking and go to sleep. Who knows, at this rate I may actually get caught up on a year for once. - Just getting the story down about Jet. Flower's will be coming soon. Little stinker tortoises. They aren't enjoying the cold very much and I think miss having grass to roam around in. The first warm day we have they have a new huge park to go play in.

It makes me cold to see Trevor's bare legs in these photos right now too! Brrr! I have to say that I am looking a bit forward to some warmer weather at this point. I love snow, I love my big coats and all that.....but I really want to go for a long walk.

Stay warm.

That would be Trevor. We've always kind of joked about this, at least since 1st grade. He has a bunch of friends that are boys, but he seems to always have one female friend who he becomes inseparable with.

First it was Sophia in Phoenix. Who was from Boston originally. She was the cutest little tomboy with long curly dark hair. Even teachers at school commented on what good friends they were. Then, Emily K who was a pretty little blond girl who we actually saw her grab Trevor's hand in line at a school carnival in second grade. They were waiting in line for one of those inflatable obstacle course things where they were going to beat each other off a podium with big foam sticks. Then....moving here he found Olivia. A girl down the street with blond hair. They were inseparable when we lived in Union and spent HOURS playing in a creek behind her house. She was a perfect match for Trevor. He doesn't like bugs much, but she did. They'd go find bugs, make up stories about finding bones and even found a snake once. She of course would do all of the creepy animal holding, but they had a ton of fun together. Now....

Yesterday Trevor came home and said that he had a phone number of a new friend. This friend ended up showing up at the front door about an hour later.....Katie. An adorable little red head girl who just moved here from Iowa. She lives down the street. Braving the cold yesterday, she asked if T could play and Trevor went out for about an hour. I couldn't help but think that Olivia would be furious if she knew. Haha.

Yes, he has tons of friends who are boys, that he plays legos with, wii and wrestling in the front yard.... but this is one thing about him that I always thought was kind of funny. It was only a matter of time when he started school this week that the girls would be curious about him. Heaven help us when he actually starts to get phone calls.

I went to the store today totally forgetting that a big storm is on the way. I was checking out and the cashier mentioned that I was smart for getting there early before the rush later this afternoon. Aha...it is 'storm preparation' time. Which just happened to fall on a day when I needed a million things from the store anyway. The last time a storm like this was on the way, people had bought all the bread, milk and bananas. Now I'm prepared and didn't even think about it. Go me.

Easing back into normal.....

Last night's little bit of insomnia yielded a new layout today. I started it last night, and finished in between my chores today. One of my favorite things about the new place is that my computer is up on a landing at the top of the stairs. About five feet from an upstairs laundry room.....which is also maybe 10 feet away at the most, from the farthest bedroom. So I can multitask like crazy. While I wait for the last few minutes of a spin cycle, I can check email or work on a page. THEN there has been NO laundry clutter since unpacking since I can pull things out of the dryer, hang them, fold them and put them right away into drawers and on kid's beds! Saaaweeet! So in between making beds, laundry and cleaning bathrooms today....I finished up this page. (above)

I'm thinking that I have so many similar photos of the kids separately, that some times I might make pages about the same things but they will go to that child's album eventually instead of only the family one. That is one thing I love about digital is that if I decide I want two copies of a page, I order two. I don't have to really make two separate pages like before. So my kids are getting at the ages I decided to do family album and individual. So....each one will have a page about them carving pumpkins, etc.

Just like this Lego one. Legos are just a big part of our lives right now. LOL. I did a similar one of Matthew working on a set he was building after Christmas.

Ding. And there goes my laundry buzzer again.

Now where did THAT time go? Little update.

We picked a good weekend to move. Sarcastic at first, since it was raining and drizzling. Thankfully the rain held off while we were doing the outside stuff. We had the fastest movers in the world too. Thanks guys! But then my sarcasm also turns to real gratitude when the next few days we had snow! I much prefer the drizzle for going in and out, than snow.

Things went off without a hitch really. As usual, even after weeding through furniture and things that wouldn't fit in our new house we still have A LOT of stuff. I swear, next time I'm selling everything and starting all over. I say that every time.

So the week after has been spent trying to get things put away. It is starting to look more like a home, and things have found a place to stay and pictures have been put up on the walls. There are still those leftover boxes of the random "Oh my gosh what do I do with this stuff?" that I still have to sort through. Luckily, the basement is huge. I put most of it down there and will deal with it in the spring.

No pictures of our new house yet. I'll keep you guessing for awhile.

The kids had the first week off of school. I kept them home since it was chaotic trying to find all the stuff to get them registered at the new school. However, yesterday was their first day at the new schools. Megan had a great day. They all did. I took Megan to register first, and she had a buddy come and pick her up from the office and show her around. It was cute watching the two girls walk down the locker lined hallway. Megan didn't even turn around to wave. I know she would have.... but she was so excited. She always loves starting new schools. She sees it as a way to reinvent herself.

Trevor and Matthew were next. I took them to their school..... which is much farther considering. But it is a beautiful drive. There are at least three HUGE thoroughbred farms on the way. Winding roads through trees, old plantation homes and creeks. I can't wait to see it when the trees turn green again.

When the boys and I were standing up by the office with the admissions woman, a boy came up to Trevor and asked if his name was Trevor. (T was so nervous the whole time, Matthew just rolled along like he usually does.) Trevor answered the boy and the boy said, "Oh you are in my class! We have a cool teacher!" Trevor said, "Sweet." We got the tour of the school and Trevor got to go into his class first. The teacher said that somebody who works with Mike had a son in her class, and all the kids talked about that morning before announcements was that they were getting a new student. I think that made T feel pretty special.

Later that day, Trevor came home and said that he was asked by a bunch of kids to sit by him at lunch....and as usual.... most were girls. Apparently one even said Trevor was cute. LOL.

Matthew went to his class after that. The door opened, and the teacher came out to greet him. All the kids were supposed to be watching a film but instead all eyes were on Matthew. Normally you'd think that would be great cause for an anxiety attack. Not for Matthew. At least if he was nervous, he hides it well. The teacher talked to us for a minute and then showed him his desk. He was off without a problem.

Megan took this picture of me waiting by the door looking out the peep hole waiting for the boys to be dropped off from the bus. (Wow, I really have absolutely no butt at all.)



When everybody was home, I took Megan across the street to Kroger (It's beautiful....it reminds me of AJ's in Phoenix. AJ's and a mall. There is a FOOD COURT in the Kroger! A Fred Meyer jewelry store, furniture store and a huge Starbucks.) Megan had gotten a Starbucks giftcard for Christmas from a friend, so she asked if we could celebrate by going there after school. We picked up some things for dinner and then came home.

Of course Mike cooked a fabo dinner, and we heard stories about the day. About the crazy kid on the bus who yells all the time, about the good food the cafeteria has and that there is a smoothie machine. That Megan finally got a top locker, but is afraid she can't open the lock all the time, that classes are fun and stories about all of the new people they met. It looks like it will be a good year for them.

More later. I have a few more things I need to do before going to pick up Miss M at school. It feels good to be hooked up with a computer again.

fortune cookie says:

This was a fortune in Mike's cookie at dinner tonight. We laughed until we cried. That one will be saved....for sure. I love irony. We both needed a good laugh, and this totally fits US.


Speaking of.... this is life right now. Boxes. Lots and lots of boxes.

What a crazy week. Something was wonky with my computer, and I was without internet most of the week. Which may be just as well since I really didn't have time to be on it much anyway. Still packing....still getting things ready.

*****

So today was the kids' last day of school at the schools they have been going to since moving to Kentucky. Us moving again and switching schools, this was one thing that I hoped to avoid, but it didn't happen and we are moving forward. We're a good, strong family and we all know this is temporary. Megan is actually kind of excited, I know anxious as well, but she is used to switching schools since Arizona and moving here. She looks at it with a view of having fun being the new kid, the one that everybody wants to figure out and meet. She feels that she gets to reinvent herself each time. She also still keeps in touch with her friends in Phoenix on a daily basis with her cell phone so she just collects people and maintains friendships, and she has already collected phone numbers to keep in touch with friends from here. (Plus in reality, we're only moving 4 miles away.) So she sees this move as a good thing and being able to meet even more people. Plus there are a couple of girls that she already knows in her new school. They moved last year, so that will only help too.

Matthew.... that boy faces everything he does with gusto. He's more excited about not having to deal with the principal at his current school. Not that he's ever been to the office....but that seems to be giving him much joy lately being able to say SO LONG. (I'm not a fan of the principal either, so I kind of agree with the boy. In fact when the name was brought up at bunco a week ago, 12 people all rolled their eyes and sighed in unison. I'm guessing this principal is not a favorite to many.) He's the same way as Megan, he is loyal to his friends he has already but is looking forward to a change and meeting new people.

Trevor. Trevor has always been my cautious one. Let's just say that he likes routine, doesn't like going out on a limb and will probably never jump out of an airplane. He's cautious, but so easy going. It's a good mix, and what draws people to him. He's having a harder time dealing with this than the others. I expected it. Last night I was up with him as he was crying and realizing today was his last day.

I got a phone call from the woman at the office at school that Trevor was having a difficult day and was near tears all day. His best friend - a girl down the street - not to be called a girlfriend...but he wouldn't mind marrying her someday because she's cute - was by today and was crying. Those two were inseparable this summer, and play together all the time still. They were so excited to be in the same class this year. But we'll be able to keep in touch. Again, it's not that far away. Just not as easy and convenient as running down the street and disappearing for hours during the day.

So that's my day, my week. This weekend is the move. I'll be without internet for a few days. Until then..... I'm deciding whether or not to bring this (pictured below) with us. Bad girl ate a package of salami. No matter how far I put things back on the counter, she's quite the counter surfer. I swear I was only gone for a split second too. Who's a bad dog??? But.... she's still darn cute.

Bad dog.

Your call is very important to us.....

(New kit from the fabulous Karla Dudley!) On the phone waiting for a doctor.... figured I'd take a break from packing and cleaning for a bit! This layout came about early early this morning. Most of it was done before taking the photo and writing the journaling. It's one of my 365 pages. This is why I love this project.... I knew I had a page about Matthew and his monkey bowl from January 2008. Some things never change, and that monkey bowl is one of them. I hope that thing lasts forever.

Back to work. I'm finally off hold!

I'm getting to be good at this....

It's looking pretty bare in there!

We are moving! Long story short..... we found another place. It's not far from where we are now, but the process is starting! My living room is full of boxes, and I've started 'de-personalizing' the house. For some reason one of the first things I do whenever we move is start to take pictures and my favorite decor items down. I don't want it to feel like home anymore because I guess my personality is once I know the task at hand I want to jump in and get it done. Look forward. (Except I just noticed that my favorite Queen Mary print is still up. That's my absolute favorite.... so it always goes last. I can see it from several angles in the house too, so it makes me happy to always peek at it throughout the day.)

-------

This is also why I haven't been in touch or blogging much the past few days. I'm still keeping up on the 365 project. It figures, past years I have started it and stopped with less going on in the day to day of my life. This year though, with being busy from the time I wake up until the time I crash at night.... I've still managed to keep up. Maybe because it feels normal. I hate not taking photos. So eventually I'll get those 365 photos posted. It may be more fun to look back on them after a bit of time has passed anyway.

-------

Random:

The other day before school when the boys were eating breakfast Matthew looks up at me and says, "I miss Billy Mays." He just makes me laugh sometimes.

Hell's Kitchen and my love for hulu

I don't hide the fact that I LOVE reality TV. Go ahead....count me as one of the millions across the world who is responsible for the downfall of television. haha. I love it. It started with Survivor, and I still look forward to each season (New one starting soon!!!)

How I missed an ENTIRE season of Hell's Kitchen is beyond me! I watched season 6 and knew that I had missed one since one of the chefs was back that had to leave for a medical reason....but oh my gosh....thank the Lord for hulu.com. Mike and I have been enjoying for an hour a night.... catching up with season 5. He can hook up his laptop into our big TV, so we watch it like normal TV.

My heart belongs to hulu. If you miss any of your shows, they are all right there. Makes for a happy Kerry. I enjoy my downtime. Which isn't even always downtime since I'm usually doing laundry during my 'downtime.' My mom is a multitasker, so I come by it innocently. It's genetic.

Where is this going? Well.... I am spoiled. Mike has always been a great cook. I missed his cooking so much when he was gone last year and knew that his flatmates were probably feeling like they won the lottery by having somebody who could cook like he can.

Mike's work schedule right now has made it to where he is home at night for dinner. The best thing? We watch Hell's Kitchen the night before, and whatever they are making I CRAVE. Mmm...that risotto looked good. Mmm....beef wellington? Can you just whip up dinner like that?

So far I have had every one of my craving whims taken care of. Tonight for example is his awesome version of Macaroni Grill's chicken scallopini. All it took was the mention of capers on Hell's Kitchen the other night for me to get that dish in my mind. So tonight....chicken scallopini, ceasar salad and rosemary bread....and the Hell's Kitchen finale. Life is good.

No snow day today! We are supposed to get a snow shower later this afternoon and then it is supposed to warm up this week. After being promised another week of cold temps and snow last week. The kids aren't really excited about that updated forecast. lol.

more snow....

What can I say? More snow. Chores are futile.

snow day #3

Another snow day! We were pretty sure of it, so it didn't come as much of a surprise when we saw our school on the closures crawl on TV last night. I'm totally spoiled by being able to sleep in again. The big storm went through, but we are still getting constant flurries. It's nice. It's so pretty with the sun out and watching them fall. They sparkle.


Matthew got out today, but didn't last for more than a couple of hours. Not only did his asthma start to bother him a bit, but since he's so pale and almost transparent in the first place, his skin was not happy about being out there for long. He had bright red cheeks when he came in. He did have fun while he was out though, and had his first experience with a sled. He loved it.


Megan was trying to be a good big sister and take him for a few tandem rides with her, but this was the result of the first try. Honestly, our neighbor has one tree.....and they found it. The kids that have been over using our hill have managed to flatten out some pretty good grooves to the LEFT of the tree. I don't know how these two got so off course, but it made for a good picture. Especially because the only reason I have this photo is because Megan was wanting me to watch this amazing sled dismount that she kept bugging me to watch. - That's some dismount there Megan. haha.

I am loving hearing the screams of kids as they slide down the hill. I made a pot of hot chocolate that is simmering on the stove for hot chocolate breaks. Winter is cool.

Snow day #2 1/2... more photos.....

The second half of the day I didn't see Megan and Trevor at all. They spent hours outside. Our front yard has a great hill so some of their friends came over and played in the yard. Luckily they all came with sleds since we don't have one. One of them brought over their dad's old sled. It just looked awesome! It wasn't one of the fastest, compared to the molded plastic ones, but it was so cool. It did work well on the street where the snow had been smushed down by cars all day.

All of the kids shared the faster ones and rode in tandem, so everybody had a great time. There really are great kids in this neighborhood. - Trevor came inside with the reddest cheeks I've seen on him.

Even Piper got out for awhile. She had been sitting by the window watching the kids for a long time. I let her out and she tore down the hill, spun around and came running up the hill. She did circles, lept through the air and plowed her nose in the snow. She's a dork. She LOVES the snow.
I think she enjoyed the attention being out with all of the kids too.

That is snowday #2. I'm pretty sure tomorrow will be another one since it is nonstop, and actually even blowing sideways out there right now. I love snow days. :)

Matthew says that he will get out and play tomorrow. He was content inside with me today. He spent a lot of time with Legos, Youtube (watching Legos!) and Lego.com.

snow day #2!

Wednesday is a big night in our house. The kids LOVE The Middle, and it's become our family show of the week. Last night was even better because we watched carefully at the scrolling words on the bottom *fingers crossed* to see if school would be closed tomorrow.

Yesterday we went to fill up the car and to the grocery store just in case we are snowed in for a few days. It is supposed to be a big storm, and according to an article I read, one of the coldest winters for the United States since 1985. Bring it on. We're ready.

I live in an area with a lot of people. We have grocery stores.... lots of them. I mean Kroger has its headquarters here. We're not hurting for Krogers. But I always think that the days before a big storm hits people go into weird panic mode. I am not kidding that I went to grab one of our staples - bananas - and there were FOUR green ones left. Not even attached, but four single, green bananas left on the display. Between this and the empty shelves where there are usually hundreds of loaves of bread, you'd think the end of the world was near. Luckily, I had bought two loaves of bread the day before. I should sell them on the interstate off ramp to make a few dollars.

Sure enough, this morning the phone rang at 5:30 and schools were closed. If you are lucky enough to be inside, today is a beautiful day. It has been snowing nonstop since around 6:00 this morning. Our street is usually one of the first ones to get plowed and salted, and as of 2:30 they still haven't done it yet. Which means it's pretty bad out there in other areas. I'm sure it is fine with the ton of kids that are out using the hill as a snowboarding hill, sledding or the one guy that I have seen drive up and down in his little tractor thingie pulling kids on sleds. People know how to make the best of a snow day.

The boys and I are inside today. They didn't want to go out and have been playing with Legos all day. Megan has braved the weather and went over to a friends house. Mike should be coming home from work soon. I'm catching up on housework and other things. That's our day today, and tomorrow is honestly looking like another snow day. More snow in the forecast. Good thing I have my four bananas.

SNOW DAY!

The phone rang around 5:30 this morning with the recorded call....."Due to inclement weather....all ******** County schools are closed." Mike was already up for WORK so this meant that I didn't have to drive him, and I went back to sleep. I love it when the kids come in all freaked out later in the morning, thinking that I overslept, and I get to say, "Snow day." I'd say a snow day face is better than any excited face on Christmas morning.

An added bonus was that I had made lunches the night before, so they know if they get hungry they already have a meal ready to go if they don't want to make their own.

The boys have been outside for most of the day (Trevor especially has been running around the neighborhood with a bunch of boys) while Megan and I stayed inside making cider, doing normal everyday chores, and her sitting on the couch near the fire on her laptop. The big talk burning up the lines on her cell phone is that more snow is expected later this week!

I'm giving the - project 365 photo a day - thing a try again this year. So far so good on taking them, just not on posting them. I'll get to that later. This week has been crazy busy...and it's only Tuesday.

Peace out. Stay warm.
