Misc. photos

I have let myself get so far behind with the blog that it is daunting to try and catch up.

These photos are not in chronological order nor do they really make sense going in the same post -- but I want to include them and this feels like the only way I can handle right now.  

2/28/15 - Yes we have flowers in February and a day or so after I took this photo I mowed the lawn!  It has been unusually sunny and warm for February this year.  Which is quite enjoyable, but I hear it means that there will be tons of bugs in a few months.

Tamsyn asked me to take pictures of this -- so I did.

This made me laugh… brownie pan on the counter crumbs all over the floor.  The culprit obviously needed a stool to reach.

I noticed that I have a ganglian cyst on my hand -- thought I'd document it so I can know how long it lasts if it does go away on its own.

January has been nothing but foggy almost every day.  I took a picture of our house in the morning after dropping the kids off at school (above), then another one in the afternoon on the same day after the fog lifted (below).

Thurston got this volcano kit as a gift for Christmas and Jake helped him put it together. First they had to paper mache the shape of the volcano and then the next day they painted it and made it go off.  The going off part was pretty much a let down, but the anticipation of an explosion was pretty exciting.

Just a typical family scriptures session

Tasha had to get these 4 teeth pulled.  Her mouth is pretty small and with her braces they needed to make room for the other teeth to slide to the right places.  She is definitely a trooper though.  She didn't really even complain, took charge of taking her own medicine and most people wouldn't even have known she had 4 huge holes in her mouth.

2/21/15 - Just a pretty view from our driveway of the sun coming through the trees as the fog was lifting creating some pretty cool rays.

2/19/15- No big fuss for our anniversary on the actual date this year -- but to celebrate we will be going to some March Madness tournament games in Portland!  I'm pretty excited.
