Loves

What our family is lovin' right now:
Blake: *Yard Work: no serioulsy he does! We moved into our house at the end of October and haven't been able to enjoy our yard at all. It's been burried under snow and leaves. We have so many projects and things we want to do that it's been fun to get out and get our hands dirty. Blake even bought a fancy new weed-eater that has all these attachments you can put on it like a tiller for the garden and leaf blower. Brooke even got to help dad do some yard work. She loved being his little helper.Blake gave B. some wood to carry to put on the woodpile*Mountain Biking--it's getting to be that time of year when Blake is riding the trails again *Spending more time with the family (his schedule has its rotation, and I couldn't be happier!) and getting to be a part of Brooke's bedtime routine again.
Courtney: *Zumba!! Oh I am a bad, bad dancer. But I LOVE the workout I get from going twice a week to this class. The music is fun, the moves are fun (even if I can't quite get my arms and legs to move at the same time) and I think eventually I'll get it down.
*Stock Up Sales: my favorite grocery store had a case lot sale and we went crazy! But it's so nice to have food tucked away in our storage room (I guess that means I don't have an excuse not to cook anymore!) In case you are wondering about my lovely shirt, it's my work polo we wear on Fridays.
Brooke: Being Silly & having her picture taken (best if both are happening at the same time!) At dinner the other night, she picked up her turkey off her dinner plate, held it close to her face and told me her turkey was scared. Then when I laughed she said "Coatnee, go take a nap!"
As I posted earlier, she also loves her chocolate milk and I just got her these yogurt smoothie things that are sugar free (I'm pretty big into that) and are awesome for an on the go, quick snack.And finally, Hooray for being outdoors! Everyday when we get home, Brooke gets out of the car and tells me "sit down!" on the front step so she can play.
