Tuesday

An after school snack and homework with the happy lamp, we even got a superhero in there. Alaska winters do seem long and you kind of miss the sun. My sister Serena sent us this Happy light, lately we have been using it more to make us happy. It seems to be working and we are grateful for her thinking of us. Thank you Serena.

For FHE tonight we watched all the Book of Mormon stories that we have read so far, in our Bishops challenge. Then played a laid back game of Twister.

Sunday

As I was finishing getting ready for church, Karlee came into me and said "Mom this is the most awesome way to wear your purse, you should do it." As she model it for me. I she decided that she was also going to use this purse for her scripture bag at church. She brought it into church, inside not only did she have her scriptures (a pocket size Book of Mormon) but her best friend George the monkey and a library book. :0)

Saturday

The kids and I went to the Peninsula Winter Games today. This year they were able to have the outside activities because it was a little warmer(-8), not much from last year (-22). But it was fun the kids made toolboxes, shot a bow and arrow, decorated a cookie, raced a kick sled, and went down an ice slide (Kallie in the picture above.) It was cold but a lot of fun. We went home to a crock pot of hot chocolate,yum.

Thursday

My plan was to get the kids through their homework quickly as I made dinner. But there kink in my plan having these two sit next to each other. FOCUS was our goal, in our plan. With a few bumps we did make progress and they had their homework done dinner. Success!

Wednesday

Tonight was pack meeting, Karlee did a good job of sitting on my lap and amusing herself with her coat. At one point the highlight was putting her coat on backwards, and realizing that she could still see through the hood. (And yes I took this picture during the middle of pack meeting, adding to her happiness).
