Strange Happenings and Everyday Life
I have no idea what he has in his mouth but someone snapped a picture so we must blog it!
Francis wanted a ride at the mall. This is as good as he got.
Lots of game playing through the sub zero temps.
A little baking helps to heat the house, too.
A cut and paste project from FranMan's new preschool book.
A family gift from Tim and Caitlin. It was beautiful when it was finished but really challenging to put together. Thinking of giving it back for them to try next Christmas!
Kid walking backwards on treadmill.
No explanation necessary.
Anniversary gift from the kids living at home. Also, great solution to keeping track of which glass is mine. Just need one for every kid in the family. (dan has a matching glass but couldn't find it for the picture)
The last hurrah for our Christmas tree.
(Matthew's idea)
The Last of Christmas
Can you tell that I finally found an efficient way to add pictures to the blog?
This is the last of the Christmas catch up... I promise!
This year we put everyone to work.
Tim is cutting ham. Joe mashing potatoes.
Well, maybe not everyone was working.
Just waiting on the food.
Taking a picture of the guy taking a picture...
and the other side of the table.
Christmas morning before Mass
Not too great at the selfie thing
Oh, this one melts my heart!
Franny pulling the big bro in his new wagon.
Matthew scores against the persistent Stephen
in a very tiny table hockey duo.
And th- th- that's all, folks!
Cookie Baking and Gingerbread Fun

January Flu Bug
We've been sick, sick, sick here.
So this will be short and sweet, since that's about as
long as I can stay vertical!
But here's a few photos from before the flu bug hit...
Francis' Christmas stash...
he received a bag of M&M's from Fr. John Paul
and promptly squirreled them away in his jammie drawer. Every night he eats one
and if I ask nicely, I get one also!
Johnny got a drone from Jeff and Debbi...
took awhile to figure out how to use the thing...
now nothing is safe on the main floor!
Nonnie is proud of her puzzle.
Just had to share how groceries look on Monday afternoons.
Some game fun
Johnny's birthday...
warming himself by the fire.
We had Timothy over to make it somewhat special.
Little did we know that the germs were mounting even then.
Here's hoping we didn't pass the plague on to him.
Cutie pies
One picture after the flu hit...
sad little guy.
