SNOWWWWW

So, last winter, Quinn was not old enough to really appreciate the snow. This year, bring on the boots and gloves!! He loves it! Jake was out plowing the other day, and we discovered that Q loves to ride on the machine with his daddy. Even though his hands were bright red (he won't keep gloves on), he didn't want to come inside. It was fun to watch. Lily loves the snow too. We went to Grams and Bapo's house today, and they played tag in the backyard running along trails made by bapo before the game. That was after they took turns knocking down the icecicles in the back yard.

Here's a gooey, romantic game of tag. Here's how it works: I will answer questions about Jake and I. At the end of the post, I'll tag 3 people and post their names. Then, those three people can do the same thing on their own blog and so on and so forth. I was tagged by my good buddy Erin. Now it's your turn!!

Houses

It's Christmas time! And that means it is Gingerbread house time!! Here are some pics of Lil Lily making her house. We really had a blast!! Kim and Shay made their house too. We had a little village!

Poor Fish

Yup. Lily has a beta fish in her room, named Princess Rockstar, and we finally decided to clean her tank! Once we were done, we put her back on Lily's dresser, and thought all was well. A few minutes later, Quinn starts crying...I found him in Lily's room, soaked, with an 'Oh dear, what have I done' kind of look on his face. Princess Rockstar only had half her water remaining in her tank. Quinn learned that he is not strong enough to lift her tank down all by himself!! I am just glad the fish was still in the tank. Poor traumatized boy. Poor traumatized Beta. ;)
