Day 19- when they're gone

THE JOY OF LOVE

Day 19

When they're gone...

(What is the overall feeling in the home when they are gone?)

I would say the overall feeling would be clean and picked up. I rarely am home without the girls but this weekend we left Jared home alone and went to my parents. When we arrived back the living room (and rest of the house) was clean. I was shocked you could actually see the floor! It is obvious we have children by the toys lining the fireplace but at least they were not in the middle of the room when we got home...it lasted all of about a minute before things were back to normal.

Day 18- going out

THE JOY OF LOVE

Day 18

Going out...

(Take some fun pictures of you together outside of your home. Ask someone else to take the picture.)

Thank you Desiree for taking the picture! :)

Fun at the park!

Last week it was -12 degrees and this week it has gotten up into the upper 70's!!! I wish it would last but I have to remind myself it is still the middle of February. The nicer weather could not have come at a better time after being stuck inside because of the blizzard. Today we took advantage and met our friends at the park. It was a little windy, to be expected in Oklahoma, but it was nice. The kids had such a good time. Claire loves the slide! Her and Alex went down it over, and over, and over, and.... Jaycen and Quinn had fun crawling in the rocks and also trying to eat them. They kept Desiree and I busy just keeping rocks out of their mouths. It was so wonderful to be out in fresh air and for the girls to work off some energy. They both went down for naps without a peep. Awwwwwwww!!!!!! Thanks for the fun....we are looking forward to doing it again!
