Happy Birthday Keira!!!

So, we got home and got busy planning Keira's Colorado party. Last year, having a bunch of her friends and planning games just didn't go over well. So, we invited the families of her friends and just had a cookout and let the kids play, we had cake and presents, but didn't make a big deal or make her be the center of attention...however, as you will see, she is warming up to the attention...

getting ready for the cake..
enjoying the cake that I spent a very long time on and failed to take any good pictures of.....argghhh!


presents...after she opened each present, she went and gave each kid a hug....


she got a bunch of care bears and some fun crafts and several other things....we had a great time and she felt very special.
Now....my yearly tradition....4 things I love about Keira:
1. She has a very helpful heart. She loves to help me with any job I am working on - even the toilets.
2. She loves with her whole heart. She gives the best hugs.
3. She has an independent spirit. Hardly ever wants me to help her with stuff...
4. She loves her family and wants to always be with us.

How can you not love this girl?

February in a very large nutshell

So, here is what I caught our family doing in February..... My goal was to take one picture a day....sadly I missed a few days....

cold...but cozy...
snow day fun




yes the snow was super deep....second big snowfall for us this year.
cuddling with dad
playing the computer
drinking hot cocoa
celebrating another year...
Look what I caught God doing...
a regular occurrence at the Lunn house - Keira, the last one at the table and trying to escape eating her dinner....
Couper....
sisterly love
being silly...yes that is a tattoo on Chloe's neck - fool thing wouldn't come off for like a week...
playing ninjago...
licking the beater....
field trip fun
hanging with friends.
sleepover
acting like the 12 dancing princesses

bedtime bible story
sliding down the stairs in footed pjs....
helping mom clean out the fridge....
taking a bath with Parker....
sneaking a cuddle in with Parker
focus on the family slide....
Mall fun....

Sonic adventures....
drinking milk
being pretty
making a tent and tunnel
pillow fight (Keira was so excited for Randee to be there to have a pillow fight with)
Parker did not like his mom getting hit by the pillows, but I got a smile out of him...
Sledding

love this picture

No, Randee is not hurt, she is laughing at Parker who is crying because he got a face full of snow....
snowboarding
eating the snow...
Keira got smart and covered her face when sledding so she could avoid getting a face full....
As I was packing, the girls put on their gymnastics clothes and went into the storage room and used the rolled up rug as their balance beam....Chloe was the teacher and Keira the student.


And we moved....all that in one month...aren't you tired? I certainly was...it took me over a month to post this....
Come visit!!!
