ANOTHER DILLY DALLY DAY!

Ok so today was another beautiful day. The kids and I went for a walk and played up in the field. The best part of the day was that I actually got ALL 3 kids down for a nap and got A LOT accomplished. I even started a puzzle which is kind of wierd considering I really don't enjoy doing them but it was actually a bit fun! So overall it was a good but lazy day! LOVE IT!!!

Another day in paradise!

Ok so I've had to look back and forth at my blog to see where I have to begin and where I left off. FYI I am mostly writing these blogs for people "really" care about my everyday life. It may be kind of boring but I'm trying to at least give some of you an up to date synopsis of my life... So yesterday was a BLAST! My grandparents in their 80's, Mom, me and the kids decided to walk down in my grandparents lake house. We could only get so far down the road because the rest of the road had not been plowed. So it was maybe 1/4 of a mile... As we walked down the hill the snow decided to get deeper and deeper. Soon enough it was up to my knees, then up to my thighs... We sledded Mimi down the rest of the hill because well, she couldn't get down the rest of the way. It was a blast. There were tons of trees down because of the ice storm they had a few months ago so the boys and I tried to move as much as we could. They were such good helpers. We also walked down to the lake which was covered but not enough so we could walk on it. I'm very paranoid about that kind of stuff... The walk back was ok but not as fun going up hill instead of down. But... We made it!!!
Today we went to Manchester to Chuck E Cheese's with Mimi and Pa and had a blast. We sent them off to the airport and now we are home and the boys are STILLL torchering the poor cat.
:( And yes I am looking out the windows and my eyes are hopefully decieving me because well... I think Jaren just jumped in the brooke again.. ARRGGH!!! Nope but I should go get them... Until then!

New Hampshire!

Today is a georgeous day. Yesterday we went to the Morgan Horse Farm down in Bolton Ma. The kids had a blast. I am already looking for a place to put two horses and a dog for the next move... The kids have such a love for animals which is great! I just wish Jake didn't have such a fear of them and wasn't allergic to them as well... I guess that's what meds are for! We were also able to celebrate our friend Anna Ela's 100th Birthday. I was quite impressed that she remembered me and the kids. We haven't seen her in a long time so it was quite a wonderful day with lots of food, drinks, and fun. It is a beautiful day and feels like spring and the snow is finally melting. We are going to try and attempt walking down to Mimi and Pa's house and take a look at the Lake. I can't wait to post some pictures. I think I have found my new heaven!!!! I LOVE New England in the winter... Jaren is obviously having TOOO much fun. I've already had to change his clothes twice in a few hours because he keeps jumping in Granna's brook and sitting in mud. NOT a big fan of it but at least he is having fun... James is hilarious because he is keeping so clean. Pa and James are sitting out on a tree right now having a VERY intense conversation it looks like. I should probably get ready for the day and head out while there is not a cloud in the sky... Guess that's it for now!

New Hampshire Day 2

Ok, so day 2 in New Hampshire was quite an experience.... It was really cold this morning but we are surviving anyways. Everything is about an hour away so we decided to drive an hour away to get lunch at Applebees and run some errands. When we got home we tried and I mean "tried" to do a bonfire to cook marshmallows. Unfortunately we had NO success because the sticks were still to green to start. It was probably better off though because I think we were all tired and ready to go in for the night. We have been doing some night sledding though which the boys love. It gets all icy on the hill so they are able to slide down under the Hemlock tree... The boys are persistant on harassing the cat Pudding. CC has been wonderful. She fits right along and waddels around like the rest of the ole' folk. She makes me laugh!!! We have yet to see any animals but have seen lots of tracks. It's amazing to know that there has been a moose right in the back yard of my moms house. Anyways.... The kids are having a blast and I am just making sure that they continue to have a good time. And Jen, don't worry I took that long breath you asked for. I'm just sorry I couldn't hold my breath a bit longer... :)

It's that time...

Well, I was hoping that while I was out in New Hampshire I could get some writing done and work on things that I've been wanting to do for a long time. I have a passion of writing and love to write. As you can tell I'm NOT that great with grammer and stuff but I love to write what's on my mind. I have been in the midst of writing a childrens book but at this time I'm not quite sure how it's going to go. My kids love the story and I've read it to them a number of times but as far as pictures, publishing and all that stuff well.... I'm clueless with that stuff so we'll see what happens!
I'm also going to work on myself physically and emotionally. Where better to do that then in the outdoors with 3 feet of snow and frickin' freezing! I'm planning to do a bit of snowshoeing and hiking in the woods of NH. I love being outside here. It is so different than being anywhere else. I love and I mean LOVE New England air. Everything out here is amazing, the trees, water, animals, people. I am grateful that I am able to come back and see what I'm missing.
I'm hoping to gain a better relationship with my family while I'm out here as well. So far.... NOT going that great. It's been a long drive out here and well it's just been a bit stressful. A lot has happend in the past few days and I'm hoping that being out here will help make things a lot better. The kids are so excited to be at "Granna's" house and to see all of the animals. I am hoping that we will get a lot of outside time while we are here. We may go home with pnemonia but I'm thinkin' it's worth it??? Maybe, maybe not????
I excited to be out here and I will keep you up to date with all that is happening. As for now I have got to get some rest. Where I will be resting is beyond me! We'll see... It will be an adventure for now. Until then....
