It’s kind of a cloudy, drizzly day today. The kind where you want to stay home curled up in a blanket. I’ve heard we are supposed to get some snow but I haven’t seen anything yet. I hope it’s not much because we still have quite a bit since the last huge dumping weeks ago. Last weekend Brittany and I made the best of the snow and took the kids tubing. We had a lot of fun even though there were some bumps and scratches. Connor is quite the clown with a great sense of humor. He get’s it from his mom. Here’s the conversation that actually took place at the start of a race. Connor is 4.
Never a dull moment.

Happy Monday Everyone!
Lately I have been having my girls do some chores around the house besides making their beds and putting their clothes away. It has not been as helpful as I was hoping it would be and most of the time it turns out to be a battle.
A friend of mine came up with this idea and I loved it so much I wanted to share.
I really hope this works better than our current system of mom yelling to get things done.
I included a printable for you. 1 for girls and 1 for boys.
What are some ideas you have for getting your kids to help around the house?

Hello Readers!
Hope you had an awesome weekend. We sure did! NOT!!
We ALL got hit with that flu bug going around and it’s still not over. I have 4 kids staying home today.
Do you guys follow Maskara?
If you don’t you have been living in a hole! She is AMAZING!
Anyways, she posted this picture of some art in her office and I fell in love with it.
I wanted something similar for my twins room, so I came up with this.
I did it in gold, light pink and darker pink and cream. All I did was get some quarter-inch press board from home depot and got a yard stick and went around the board drawing lines in a star burst pattern. Then I hand painted all the triangles in whatever color I felt like I wanted it to be. I didn’t paint every triangle; I skipped some so some of the wood would come through. Then I sanded it down a bit so it was a little muted and not so contrasting.
I really love how it turned out. I know that sometimes I start a project and it turns out really crappy and I scrap the whole thing. Well, this one is a keeper!
