Grandpa's Visit

This week Grandpa Heinrichs made it into town for a convention that we happening downtown, Christine wasn't able to make it, hopefully next time.

So Monday night upon his arrival the siblings and cousins came over to our house for a pizza party.

Tuesday night we all met up at the Chinese Gourmet for some Chinese buffeting. Everyone as able to come and Bobo the clown was there making balloons for all the kids.

Wednesday night Dad and I headed to Logan's Aikido class to see him in action.

After watching th Aikido mast in action we were hungry for some Sushi, so Landon, Logan, Dad and I headed to Ichibon for some Sushi eating. It assays delicious.

Thursday was Grandpa's day to head home, even the sky wa crying. The kids, Grandpa, and I headed to Crown Burger for a last lunch. 

It was fun seeing Dad and enjoyed spending time with him. we love you and miss you, until we see you again.

Remodel Phase One Master Bedroom

Since moving into our home a little over seven years we have replaced the flooring throughout the main living area, replaced carpet in all of the bed rooms the last year turned our front bedroom into my nail room. I decided it was time to remodel some more rooms in our house.  My next project is our bedroom. We purchased NEW bedding, chose paint to match, and started patching holes and screw pops through out our bedroom. I am so excited to have color I our bedroom when after seven years it has been just white walls.

A "Holiday" Trip

Usually in February the days are cold with snow on thground, but this year February has been a little bit different with sunny skies and melted snow. On one of these beautiful days the kids and I decided to get their helmets on and head up to our local gas station. The kids rode their bikes while I walked behind helping them when needed. I don't know who got the most of a work out, but I think we were all tired by the end of the trip, good thing Dad came by and rescued us on the way back from Holiday.

A Valentine Date

This year for Valentine's, Jeremy took the day off and the day before he sent me flowers.

We decided to do a lunch date instead of fighting the crowds for an evening date. George and Joyce watched our kiddos and off to Market Street we went for our Two O'clock reservation. 

Since Market Street was having their "Crab Fest" we had to partake and it was delicious as always.

To finish up we had their Creme Brûlée.

It was such a fun afternoon date. Love you babe to the moon and back! Thanks for always being my Valentine.

A little change

Lately I have been in a major need of remodeling. First it was going to be our master bathroom, then realized it will be a lot of money, then I figured maybe I just need to paint. So Jeremy and I decided it was time to update our bedroom. I found my bedding and I am so excited I got it today, but last weekend Mom and I headed to Tai Pan to see what they had (and it's been forever since I have been in that store). In the end we found some awesome pillows to go with my bedding but also new pillows to update my bench that faces my family room.

Here is what has been on the bench since I have had the bench...

 

Here are the NEW pillows. Love them. Now we just need to paint the walls and we will be good.

A Frozen Phenomenon

When Frozen came out in Novemberish, we took the kiddos to see it and boy did Abi get attached.

Since the movie she has had to collect the "Frozen" barbies, learn ALL the words to the soundtrack, allow certain people sing the certain songs on the soundtrack and I don't think I need to go on. 

This weekend the new Lego movie came out and Jack really wanted to see it, but Abi didn't

T, so it was our first movie not all together. Jeremy and Jack headed to the Lego movie (which Jack LOVED) and Abi and I headed to the singing version of Frozen. 

In the movie I was told what song I was and wasn't allowed to sing. I expected it to be a crazy movie, but everyone respected everyone and everyone sat in their chairs and sang only during the singing sections. 

Of coarse with 5 minutes to spare, miss Abi had to go potty. As we ran back to the theatre we saw ending and then all the girls ran to the front to dance to the Demi Lovato version of "Let it Go." Such a fun afternoon.

A Sleep Over

Abi loves it when we see Grandma Heinrichs, however when we have to leave her heart breaks. As Grandma H was getting ready to leave it outcome wasn't any different except for the happy ending. Grandma H invited Abi to come and sleep over.

The night of the sleep over, Grandma H showed up and Abi was as ready to go. I had planned on feeding everyone, so mom wouldn't have to worry about that. As soon as dinner was over Abi grabbed Grandma's purse and was ready to head out. 

Off they went. The next morning they had breakfast and had a little tea party with beads and hats and the whole shebang. 

Mom tried to take pictures with her phone, but it wouldn't work, so the pictures are when Jack and I picked miss Abi up.

Jack couldn't be left out. 

Abi had such a fun time, I am sure she is counting down until the next time.

 

A snow day

With the crazy weather, the kids and I decided to get bundled in our snow gear, get the sled and his the park hills.

A quick little blizzard decided to join us and made it hard to see. In the end and were cold, I was wet and Abi was done after she slipped on the playground. In the end it was a lot of it was fun.
