Plasma car
Had some fun on my kids’ plasma car. I needed some help up the sidewalk 😆

Invisible cheese
If you have the chance and can find it, this invisible cheese is unreal.
My kids can probably tell you where you can find it if you’re having trouble tracking it down.
Seriously.
Biking with Aunt Larissa
Aunt Larissa took Shecklet #4 on a bike ride this afternoon. They went to the “big park” and #4 played on some of the equipment for a little while before they biked home. Chilly ride, but glad they got some fresh air.
Father/Daughter Dance 2022
The Handmaidens of the Lord group that Shecklet #3 is part of planned and hosted a father/daughter dance for the 3-12th grade young ladies and their dads/father figures. Shecklets #3 & #4 accompanied their dad to the event. Shecklet #3 also invited a friend of hers from school to bring her dad too, which she did.
Shecklet #1 was asked to be the DJ for the event and was definitely in his element. He did a great job keeping the music going – because you can’t have a dance without music!
Final ski day of 2022 ⛷
Not much snow left, but they are going to give Trollhaugen one last try for the season.
Shecklet #2 did the waterskipping competition again this year. He went all out and donned his party shirt for the occasion.
You can also watch his entire run:
Spring break 2022
We spent the week at home. Jake traveled for work during the beginning of the week.
Shecklet #2 suggested we add some color to the study room, so we pulled down ceiling tiles and primed them for painting.
Three kids used the painter’s tape technique to paint design their designs and one used a sponge technique.
Once the weather warmed up enough, the kids put on their shorts (it was in the 50’s 😆) and went for their first bike ride of 2022.
Update: April 16. I chose to paint a family of gnomes. After painting six, Shecklet #2 asked if I was planning to paint one for Astrid. I found a design that incorporated a halo. I love how it turned out! 💕
HBD Grandma Patti!
We hosted a birthday dinner for Grandma Patti tonight. Jake and the boys grilled salmon for the adults and we made mac-n-cheese for the kids. Larissa and the girls made cupcakes and they decorated them with green frosting (since it’s March.)
Gnome walk with friends
One of the local suburbs sets up a gnome walk in different city parks. Today’s walk was a small/short one, but just enough for us to get a little fresh air before going to the indoor playground. These kids crack me up!
DSW fashion
My friend J has an amazingly fun style – and my kids know it. The girls found these heeled boots during our trip to DSW today and immediately thought of J. They had me take a photo of them and text it to her. She approved 🙂
