We're singing this song in our house.

We're enjoying Frozen quite a bit at our house.  Did you see it? It's fun and has a big theme of sister-love which suits us well.

Here's the video that Jimmy Fallon did on Oscar night. Georgia (and therefore all of us) watched it over and over and over.  It's great fun to see people making music with instruments from a kid classroom.

Crafts with Grandma

Here's Georgia and Grandma doing crafts together. My mother comes bearing supplies and she and the girls make glorious items like these fuzzy creatures in their colorful popsicle stick house.

Below they are using glue guns.  Whoever used a glue gun? I thought it was like a staple gun and avoided the whole idea.  But now everyone in our family is using this amazing tool to stick things together forever, like these shells and wood. We also used the glue gun on some winter boots and Rob borrowed it to do some work in his bike area.

Need to borrow a glue gun? We've got one.

Hi there,

I've been gone for a long time.  I got behind in regularly updating this blog around October and never found the time to catch up. This was the longest gap in my blogging here since I started in late 2008. I didn't know if I would ever catch up or if the urge was gone, but I missed it. I love to look back and see all that we've been doing. It is a way to remember and acknowledge some of the beauty and chaos of everyday life as it passes by so quickly.  

So, I did some catching up.

I've been busy with my business Crow Lady Healing

http://www.crowladyhealing.com/

and trying to figure out how to integrate that into my life.  

                                                    

I hope you have been well.

It's nice to be back.

         Really? It seems impossible we would need these anytime soon.

                                           
                                                                          But we will.

Grandma and Geeps visit

They come a couple times a month and visit, bearing food and gifts.  Lucky us.

Snow fort

and its proud creator.

Roses

Rob went all out this year and got me some roses.  Aren't they beautiful?  Not only did he order them to come on Valentine's day, but he bought me bright roses. I love them! (Usually he buys me carnations and mums because he likes them.)

Very nice.
They are lasting well, too.

Alas, they did not come on Valentine's.
"Can't be responsible for weather delays"
But they arrived the following day and Rob cruelly suggested I greet the Fed Ex man weeping, saying, "It's too late we've already filed for divorce." to punish the world of transport for its lateness, but I did not.

Georgia nails it!

She ran through the song without even looking at the book!  "See what happens when you practice?"

Such a proud smile!
