{ It's a Beaut }

{ My Aunty Marilyn (My Mom's Sister-in-Law) is a quilter and quite an exceptional one at that! Paul and I received our first quilt when we were married almost 6 years ago. It's beautiful ~ It's made up of greens and creams, just delightful! }

{ When Jacob was born he received this one - And I adore it! }

{ This style of quilt is called "rag time" and it's my favorite by far, it looks like someone has already loved it for ages, and yet it's brand new! }{ The beautiful thread detailing and appliques }{ And here is Cole's ~ It's blue, green and has a bit of yellow and it is by far a favorite of his! He loves to drown in the warmth of it. }

{ Jacob's had hearts and Cole's has stars - She takes pictures of each one so she can keep track of each quilt...see told you she was a pro! }

{ Thanks Aunty Marilyn for all your time and effort you put into our quilts ~ If our house were burning down, they would be one of the things I would grab, after of my children of course (wink wink) }

:: Egg-Cel-Ent! ::

:: While I was saying good-bye to Jamie & Lois my biggest boy was in the kitchen...this is what I walked into...to say the least I cracked up - get it I 'cracked' up!!! Ahhh ha ha ha. Okay, they were not on the plate, but they were all cracked ::

:: Good thing I had pulled out butter to make cookies with, I guess I'll be making a double batch! ::
:: After all was cleaned up, Jacob was up in bed and I was putting the milk away, this is what I found in place of the eggs that he grabbed...::

:: Look @ those rosy cheeks! ::

:: 'nuf said ::

:: It's a SNOW day ::

:: We headed out into the snow early this morning as we had cancelled our appointment with our accountant due to the snow - What a great excuse eh!?!?! ::

:: Here are a few pictures of my boy's and their "sled" - leave 'em to their own and they turn a skim board into a sled...but they had fun! :: :: Here is Jacob playing around in the snow for pretty much the first time...up until today any snow we've had he didn't really know what to do. But today he knew what to do, he just went everywhere and adventurized! It was so fun to see him play and eat the snow ::
:: Here are some things around our house that are currently buried under the snow - How fun! ::

:: Old vs. New(ish) ::

:: I stumbled across this photo of our basement prior to us owning the house...just for comparison sake here is the old vs. new ::

:: Into the future ::

:: The day I took this picture (Monday) they loved each other. Yesterday not so much...I guess that in the future that is what being brothers so close together will look like, one day they are inseparable and the next they cry at the sight of each other! The reason they didn't get along too well yesterday was because Jacob decided to hit Cole on the head with his play hammer and so every time Jacob came close to Cole, Cole screamed his head off ::

:: Today all is forgiven and Cole is no longer screaming at Jacob - Thank you Lord! :: :: Have a great day peoples --- I am off to run a bunch of errands, do a quick vacuum and probably do some work in my Mom's office. But tonight "flipping out" is on @ 11:00, so I will break to watch, that show cracks me up and I LOVE the reno's he does ::
