Pic of front door


It's not really a room in our house but it leads into our house and right now it's covered with Christmas cards still! If you sent us a card it's on the door...we stop and look at them every so often and think of YOU! OH and Susan your card will make it on the door in about 2 minutes as soon as I get off of here...thanks for the card!

Picture a day challenge for this week

I forgot to tell you what the pic challenges for this week are. Every pic this week is of the rooms in your house...it could be the laundry room, bedroom...whatever you want it to be but 1 pic everyday. Next week I will be gone so the pic a day will have to be posted when I return from FLORIDA!!!

A picture a day challenge

I decided to join the picture a day challenge...let's see how it goes. Hopefully it will help my photography skills! Let me know what you think! Everyone is also invited to join in this challenge and I would love to see your picture a day!

On the farm!

Makenzie didn't want to look at the cows because they smell.

Kylan is always so excited when he learns that we are going to Iowa because he wants to go farm with Trase and Drew or anyone that will take him. Last time we went he got to drive the combine with Mark and this time he got to go look at the cows...it's all he could talk about today!

A day in the Wedemeyer homeschool












Today is a busy day for us! The kids took a class on Stranger danger this morning and what to do in case of emergencies...great ideas and they both did awesome!


Then at 1pm we went to Freedom church for a Roving reptiles demonstration...it was so cool. The kids loved it just check out the snakes, alligator, and many turtles and lizards. This was our first activity with the Heritage homeschool group and they were all so friendly we really enjoyed it. We are also in Heartland homeschool group but they didn't have coop today...usually Makenzie takes a painting class, a sketching class and they both take a PE class.


Now, we are headed off to Iowa for Grandma Wedemeyer's 90th birthday party!

Happy Birthday to Kinley, Connie and Jennifer










We got together with the Wedemeyer side of the family to celebrate Connie's( Feb 5th) and Kinley's(March 5th) and Jennifer's(March 5th) birthdays. Anyway we had good food and good family time...here are some pics! We haven't seen Kinley since Christmas and she's really grown and is crawling!!!
Also, check out the pic of Makenzie and Katelyn...Makenzie is reading her a book...I thought it was too cute!

Happy Valentine's Day!








We were planning on going to a homeschool Valentine's party today but the kids and I are still not feeling that great so we didn't go! Instead we had a heart shaped pizza from Andolini's for dinner and Kevin brought me flowers...roses and my absolute favorite flower TULIPS! The kids each got a new webkinz from 2 people who love them dearly (mommy and daddy). Hope your day was full of love!
