Blueberry Waffles

Ian loves waffles and blueberries for breakfast! It's so bittersweet though; he eats a great big breakfast but the aftermath is a nightmare to clean up.

Rockin' Out

This was originally not planned!  I got Ian dressed, then Caleb saw his shirt and wanted to wear his guitar one too, and then Kallen quickly followed by wanting to wear his.  So after they were all dressed I couldn't help but take a picture.  They were rockin' out all day in their guitar shirts.

No School = Fun Day

Today was Martin Luther King Jr day so schools were off. We took advantage of it and headed south to Mall of America in which the kids were able to ride rides, play at the Children's Museum, go out to eat and hang out with some of their best friends. Talk about a perfect way to celebrate no school and -5 degrees outside.

Lunch in the Cafeteria

Today while Caleb was at preschool, Kallen, Ian and I surprised Elyse by joining her for lunch in the cafeteria.  We have done this a few times this year and it's really debatable on who loves it more, her or the boys?!?

An Engineered Style Fort

Kids asked if they could build a fort using our blankets and pillows.  We agreed, but within a few minutes Dad stepped up and used his engineering skills to make a high class sturdy fort with secret hideouts and tunnels.  Mom's blanket over the chair and side-table is not going to cut it ever again. (Picture does not do justice.)
