On the way home we stopped at the park to see the river:

Feb 7 - We visited Sawnee Mtn. it was maybe a little cold for this but we needed to be outside. The boys played for several hours...hiking, in the tree house, scouting and building Fairy houses, and sliding...
Feb 8 - Dan and I did an overnight at Barnsley. We shot skeet, went to a wine tasting, and stayed in the cottage. It was amazing! Happy V Day, and joint Bdays!

Feb 15 - We spent the day enjoying the sunshine and lounging in the hammock.

Feb 19 - I read in Handfree Mom about including the kids in doing chores with you...I suggested it to Cooper and he got super excited and wanted to wash dishes.

Once again I am playing catch up. My goal for 2014 is "Slow and Simple" I'm reducing the amount of writing, and only taking paid gigs. I need more time for doing nothing with the boys...with Dan...and alone. I need more time to keep this blog current, as I love nothing more than looing over it late at night and watching how they have grown. Here are our moments this month...part 1.
Making a gingerbread house - part of our Christmas Countdown

Then Thanksgiving....
I have really let myself get behind. It gives me a tummy ache, thinking about NOT having photos of the boys in here. Not sure why, but it does. Sometimes I get sick thinking that I only have digital copies and not hard copies. But with over 35,000 digital photos, that is not feasible. Oh well - here are the best of Nov 2013.
A date on the chattahoochee - canoe trip
and a tattoo
