musical lunch

one of quinn's favorite pass times is singing (yep she loves to sing and dance, watch out broadway). so now during lunch when jesse or i ask her what she wants to eat, or we ask her to take more bites of lunch, ect she will respond in a song "i would like some hummus and carrots", but in like an opera style singing, oh it's hilarious! jesse and i will sing back just to keep her engaged, but it can last a very long time....quinn will sing about anything!

storybook ballet

well quinn just loves her ballet class, but that doesn't come to much surprise to us, considering she dances around the house just about every day!

her little buddy, liam (i can barely stand watching them together in class, it's just too dang cute).

the girls and their babies

we had so much fun with the girls and all the kiddos, love them to pieces!!

valentine's day rules!

with a full weekend with grandmama and grandpapa, endless amounts of all things sweet, decorations galore, and some home made t-shirts from mom and dad, yep, we love valentines day!

winter fire

a winter fire, i mean how amazing does that sound! since we moved back to wisconsin and the snow has accumulated we have successfully crossed many winter activities off our list (that is the list that includes all the awesome activities children who live in WI must experience), like sledding, making a snow fort, snow angels, ice skating, ice fishing, snow ball fight, snowman, eating fresh snow, king of the mountain, and now the fabulous winter fire! aaaahhhh, it was perfect:0

quinn and her lover boy, liam (he is so sweet with her, it's just too cute)

enjoying the snow, the fire, and the friends. this is what makes winter so magical!
