Snow slide!!!!!

We finally got a lot of snow that didn't melt!!

Has anyone made a good snow slide out in Utah??

Sadly, it is very warm today so it will be the end of the

snow slide. Wah!!

Artwork

Here are the kids' bedrooms. Since today they are

in a state of cleanliness it's a good day for pictures.

A trip to the museum

We took a trip to the Museum of Natural History this week. We drove into New York City in our minivan with Utah plates--very funny. Here we are walking along Central Park. Most of the pictures are blurry--sorry.

This is a giant asteroid--or a meteor--it is real.

Aren't you glad we don't live on the sun?

Sharks--hooray.

Giant spider crab.

Life size blue whale. This was the best part--it was so big--it's hard to imagine. Plus, it's watching TV. After walking around this room for awhile Jackson said, "Mom, that whale freaks me out." "Why?" "Because it's so big."

Having fun with magnetic rocks. Of course we bought some.

Corey's 100 days of school song

This is Corey after his 100 day celebration at

school. Pause the blog music so you can hear

him loud and clear!

This is everyone painting sharks, whales and other sea beasts on the boys' wall. It's mostly done now. But the room is too messy for taking a picture right now. Plus I really should touch up a few spots but I'm too lazy. Corey is painting the under belly of a shark--of course.

I admit, Jessica posed for this picture, but she really did paint most of the tentacles on that squid but left before I got the camera out.

Creativity at work

Corey and Megan got creative with some styrofoam bowls one day. It took them about 3 days to decorate all of our styrofoam bowls with whatever I would let them have. Cute kids.
