Fun with friends

     We had fun at Lucky 13 Bar & Grill with good friends. Delicious burgers and some great guacamole. 

How did they know to put that leg-lamp behind us?!
Definitely worth the drive into the city.

     And then Charlie finished up her basketball season and at her last game she made lots of points, her best game overall.

Fun team.
     I can’t believe we’re headed into March! Only one more week before daylight savings begins and only 83 more sleeps before the last day of elementary school for us.

A little something

    A little snow, a little plowing for Greg (and some guests) and a little photo shoot for Smalls.

Our friends let their two boys tagalong with Greg while he was plowing and they loved it.

And for some reason Charlie had this photo shoot with Smalls. He's nearly 10 years old and it's starting to show.

       Not a lot of excitement this week. Just days racing by and the sun staying up past 5:30 P.M.!

Last Valentine's Dance!

    Another cute set of Valentine-themed gel-nails. A fairly good amount of snowfall. Surprise Valentine treats and flowers. And Charlie's 6th grade dance, and one more 'last-dance' at the elementary school for me!

 
 Thanks goodness it's already nearly all melted away!

We must have a cute Valentine Hairdo!

 


Thank goodness Greg was the parent on the hook for the dancing.


Charlie definitely preferred hanging out with her friends.


Proof we were there.


Group dances are the favorite dances.

    A nice week. 197 sleeps until the last day of school and even less sleeps until warmer weather and longer days!

We actually did some things

    Saturday we attended the baptism of a good friend and got to spend a little time with the grand-girls. I had to grab a picture of the two who insisted on sitting on the smaller chairs.

Elliot liked sitting on a whole stack of chairs and brought over no less then 5 chairs to be stacked before she sat down. It was hilarious.

    I finally got a couple photos of McClane playing basketball. This last game was probably the best game his team has played all season, but sadly they still lost.
 


Beau and Harley brought over cute Valentine cards for a few of us.

    And this week turned into a few dentist appointments with a subsequent orthodontist visit for McClane.
This is how you spend your wait time at the dentist office.

    And just when I thought we were getting ahead of our finances, the dishwasher springs a leak and needs to be replaced. So much for our credit card cash rewards going in the bank!

 

    So that's about it. Back to doing dishes the easy way.

Throwback to June 2022

    Another slow week and no photos to share so I decided to throw-back to, nearly three years ago, when I saw these two comedians perform and got to meet them after the show. It was great and today, Aaron, on the right, dropped his 30 minute special on YouTube, "Aaron Weber, Signature Dish". It's hilarious & well worth your time if you feel inclined to check it out.

 

    Good-bye January! We're ready for this year-long month to be over.

No celebrating but gearing up

    Have I mentioned lately how much I love getting my nails done!? This latest set, gearing up for Valentine's day, is a new favorite. I'm obsessed! 

 

    Sadly, I have no other photos to share and really nothing new or exciting to report about. It's just a typical week in sad, cold January.

Brock's 17!

    We had a pretty chill week and a simple celebration for Brock's 17th birthday. He got the exact gift he asked for and the infamous jello-cheesecake he loves, hopefully that makes for a happy young man.

A curved gaming monitor.

He's very own jello-cheesecake. (Not photographed, but it must be documented, he also got Mt. Dew, Taki's and sushi.)

    And Charlie did pretty great at her most recent basketball game, especially considering half the team was m.i.a. so she had to play nearly the entire game with only one short break.

 
    What's next? We'll see! (And lets not forget, only 125 sleeps until we're done with elementary school!)
