February Fun!

February started out with a bang for us... we managed to get our taxes done the last week of January.... so some tax refund fun was in store for us.

Yay!! Finally a (MUCH NEEDED)shed.  No more scooting past shelves, bikes and other junk in the garage.  Really I can't figure out why we have so much junk!  The more space we get, the more junk we accumulate. Oh! and believe me we somehow NEED it all... HA! At least we have a place to put some of it now.  Leah loved watching them build the "house for the bikes" it only took about 4 hours for them to get it all done.. this picture is about halfway done.


For Activity days, we created a "Heart attack" for the bishop's house. I have 11 girls in my group (plus my girls) they had a great time making cookies and signs to put out in the Bishop's yard.  It was lots of Valentine's fun.


Emma was excited this week to get the Herpst appliance off... you can see it sort of in this picture. Basically it was 2 jaw joints that pulled her bottom jaw forward.  She keeps the braces, but at least there is a lot more room in her mouth now.


Thursday morning I was babysitting so I sent the kids to school on their scooters so I wouldn't have to load all of the kids into the van to draive them to school.  10 Min later Emma met with disaster...

All cleaned up it's not too bad, but I guess it bled a lot at first.  Emma got to stay home from school and play computer that day so that was a plus for her.

Here's just some other fun pics that were on the camera from this month.

Joey is still being cute as ever... he's much too attached to his paci though.

Poor Emma. Amber had an accident w/the scooter once and she ended up spending the night in the hospital. No fun!
