Ode to Grandma Murdocks Strawberry Jam

We were SO excited that Tanner so Generously shared some of his strawberry jam that he got from a recent trip to our Grandma Murdock's house. You really can't appreciate the pure yumminess unless you've tried it! I think we each ate 5 to 10 rolls smothered with jam...except of course Brynlee who skipped the rolls all together and just ate it by the spoonful! Yes it's really THAT GOOD! YUMMY! Thanks for sharing Tanner!!!

SnowMAN!

This is what we like to call snowman building "Jake" style! After Jake and Gracie had been building their snowman for awhile I came out to give them a carrot , like any good Mom would do, but when I walked around the front of the snowman and saw this I just handed the carrot to Gracie for a healthy snack! Jake was kinda sad that he didn't have time to finish it... arms, legs etc... Way to go Jake!

Holiday Update

Well it's taken awhile to recover from all the Holiday festivities, but I've finally found a minute to post all our Christmas fun! After a rough start having to take Brynlee to the ER (she had a fever so high she had a seizure...YIKES not fun!!) and Gracie waking up the next night throwing up... we had a great time up in Montana! It was so fun to spend time with my family and for Gracie and Brynlee to have cousins to play with 24/7.

My wonderful family minus my oldest sister Kara who we missed tremendously!

The "ruffle bum" tights were too cute not to take a picture!

Love the pose guys!

Gracie was pretty excited about her "Rose petal Cottage", that is of course until she saw Tyler's race track which she played with the rest of the vacation... such a little tom boy:)

Brynlee being a good little mommy

I hope your Christmas was as good as ours! Now on to a new year!!

Enough Said

I'm not sure what to say about this picture... I'm just glad that I had sense enough to take a picture of it knowing that at some point I would think it was funny!

Jake's Weird?

So its my turn to tell you random things about me.
1) When I was six weeks old I had a hernia and had to go under the knife. I stayed over night in the hospital and had a woman roommate. Hope Kenna doesn't know about her?
2) I worked with a Funeral Director (mortition) for four years during my high school years. I did yard work, washed and waxed cars, yes even the hearst. Had the opportunity to take bodies to Casper Wyoming for Cremation. Good times!
3) My sophomore year in high school I went duck hunting with a friend every chance we got. While hunting we would shoot stray cats because they eat ducks and pheasants. One day I shot a cat that wasn't a stray as I found out around Christmas time. His name was Floppy Bob and the owner wanted to meet me but better then that he wanted me to crawl under a rock and stay their permanently. So needless to say my Wrestling Coach heard this story and my nickname became Floppy Bob.
4) I am a perfectionist and at times it scares and frustrates me. It helps out at work but I have to know when good is good.
5) I've never broken a bone in my body. I guess I'm no stunt double!
6) Kenna Bought me a watch on our wedding day and at first glance I didn't like at all. But after all these years it's my Favorite present she has ever bought me. I Love You Kenna!
I hope you all enjoyed this post. I have really enjoyed catching up with all of you on your blogs and look forward to more to come. Now its my turn to tag Scott W., Seth P., Chase P., Jason M., Dad B., Dad S., and Jason J.
