the perfect saturday(almost)...

it was such an ideal saturday...whole family at home with nothing to do and snow falling ALL day! i was so giddy with excitement. confession time- i even pretended it was my birthday! i kept saying every few minutes, "look at how big the flakes are!" and "can you believe this?" i was probably driving lane crazy. we ended up getting about 7" in 6 hours!


canon still wasn't feeling the best. but the stewarts' invited us over for dinner, and i was determined to hang out with real, live people. it had been several weeks since we had all hung out. we got bundled and ready. the snow was really deep, but very slushy. so i became inventive- wal-mart sacks over my feet! it didn't work that great...and there is no traction. i really need to invest in some rain boots...


this is the almost part: so we finally get on our way, and about half way there i tell lane, "i smell bananas." he had been coughing, but nothing out of the ordinary. he wasn't crying either. i look back there and the poor baby is covered in purple banana berries. i kind of freaked out. i don't handle throw up very well! we had to go home to clean up. there was no way we could of recovered with what we had. it was everywhere! lane was on canon cleanup and i was on car duty. i was tempted to take a pic, but decided against it! poor baby was happy after that...

probably are bad parents for this, but we went ahead and went to dinner. he was good, and i know he enjoyed seeing faces other than mom and dad's. we had pizza, fruit, and cheesecake. i had a cupcake instead! we played taboo. it had been awhile since i'd played that game, but it's one of my favorites. we always have a fun time with everyone!



this morning, church was cancelled since the parking lot was messy. it felt so good to sleep in. canon didn't sleep great last night, but he did sleep until 10:15! lane said, "so this is what 10:00 on a sunday morning feels like at home." he was supposed to preach, though. today will be just another laze around kind of day. we have life group this evening. the snow will be gone soon...supposed to be 65 tomorrow. it sure was a nice end to winter. now bring on 80 degree days!

yeah...he was SO fussy today! he's just not himself. and if his antibiodic really is the miracle drug then his ears still shouldn't look so yucky! i feel so bad for him...

So glad you guys came over. We always look forward to spending time with everyone. Like the random picture of Shanna with absolutely no explanation of why she is riding a dragon. Hope Canon gets back to feeling better soon. Maybe if the weather would pick a temperature and stay there a couple of days it might help.

Glad you guys came over even though Canon wasn't feeling great. Hope he's better soon! I also love the picture of Shanna. I didn't know you took that one.
