Queen of my Castle: February 2014
http://queenmycastle.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 02, 2014. Our January, in a nutshell. David finally got some handhelds for the climbing wall! Instead of toys, we bought the boys gift cards to Main Event. We all had fun bowling and playing laser tag. We enjoyed our fireplace more in the last month than we have in the last ten years! We bought (at the Goodwill) and put together another set of bunkbeds, and so we donated the blue car bed to the Boy Scout yardsale. They were a little sad to see it go. Trying to get back into running:.

Queen of my Castle: November 2012
http://queenmycastle.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 21, 2012. Most of these are from my phone. I'm having too much fun with my phone camera and instagram! Peter and Merrick waiting while the older two are at choir. Pretty sky during a morning run 10-25-12. I'm getting better at parking this thing! Me and my second born:. This is often how I find them when I get back from running. Either reading or making a mess of the kitchen with their breakfast. Another early morning running picture (before the time change):. What was going to be a f...

Queen of my Castle: December 2012
http://queenmycastle.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 31, 2012. Early early Christmas morning we were awakened by thunderstorms. They went on and on for hours. We even opened presents to the sounds of thunder. Very interesting. A first! Then, just as they predicted, the storms turned to snow as the day went on. By noon or so, it was really snowing! By the end of the afternoon we had a couple of inches! The kids went out a few times, but our lack of snow gear made it cold and pretty uncomfortable. They didn't last too long. And, some picture...

Queen of my Castle: October 2012
http://queenmycastle.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 30, 2012. Here are some highlights from the last couple of weeks. Please don't think we did this all in a day or two. ;o). Merrick was asking about the moon one night, so the next day we broke into our two packages of JoJo's from Trader Joe's and did this activity about phases of the moon. Afterward, everyone got to eat them. Win-win. The foil ball you see is a pumpkin covered in foil. We took it in a dark room and shined a flashlight on it to simulate the sun/moon. Last Monday we got to...

Queen of my Castle: Peter turns 8!
http://queenmycastle.blogspot.com/2014/03/peter-turns-8.html
Wednesday, March 05, 2014. Peter's birthday was Sunday. The day before had been warm and breezy, but they were predicting colder temps on Sunday and we weren't sure what to expect. It turned out even colder than we thought it would be! While we were at church we got some freezing rain/sleet! We joked with him that it was his "coolest" birthday ever! Trying out the Rainbow Loom:. Helping with his cake:. Chocolate Peanut Butter perfection! Our family's favorite birthday cake! Happy Birthday, Peter! A Field...

Queen of my Castle: Caleb turned 4
http://queenmycastle.blogspot.com/2014/02/caleb-turned-4.html
Friday, January 31, 2014. This month, our littlest man turned four years old. It's hard to believe that he is so big already. The cliche is true. Time flies. He wanted: donuts for breakfast, pizza for dinner, an R2D2 cake, and a Lego firetruck for a present. ♥. These are while we were opening presents. He wanted to do it in the morning, before church since it was a Sunday:. Time sure does fly! It seems like he was just born. Crazy. Looks like a fun day. 10:05 PM, February 03, 2014. A Field of Blessings.

Queen of my Castle: March 2013
http://queenmycastle.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 31, 2013. Grasslands Trail Half Marathon 3-23-2013. After eleven weeks of training, it was finally time to race! David was out of town, and one of my biggest stresses was taking care of the kids while I was gone. Mason could babysit, but Kyle and Merrick had soccer games and I didn't want them to miss their games! There was a chance of rain, but it looked like we'd be in the clear. Not so. I woke up around 6 to thunder and lightening! At 8:30 we started. It wasn't too bad. The first...Some ...

Queen of my Castle: This week
http://queenmycastle.blogspot.com/2014/06/this-week.html
Sunday, June 22, 2014. M2 reading Percy Jackson. The little ones attended a swimming birthday party for their friend Daniella, and we had a swimming play date with some new friends in our stake that I met at cub camp. Lots of wet towels and suits this week! D and I have tried to spend lots of time in the garden, too. We decided to take out the narrow triangular shaped bed to make the whole thing more manageable. Yay. Less to try to maintain. I was thrilled to see this water lily yesterday! The Knackstedt...
