My Grandpa is going to be turning 90 years old! That's right big 90! Wow! My Aunt asked me if I would put together some photos so that she could publish in the paper. This is what I came up with! I really like the saying "We do not remember Days, We remember Moments." As I was making this I remember several moments with my Grandpa and Grandma McCowen's. It was always fun to go visit them! My Grandma was the most patient person. She always had Ice Cream for us when we visited. My very Favorite memory is the day she let us make homemade Sugar Cookies. I remember the plastic cup we used to cut out the cookies. I remember my Grandma's hand as she held it over mine and pressed the cup into the dough to cut out the cookies. It's funny how I have the worst memory but I remember this in detail. I also remember so many other things from hiding in the closet, the day we made homemade french fries outside, dipping our cookies in Grandpa's coffee.

This is a hairstyle I did today. We were taking the kids to Chuckie Cheeses for Valentines Day however the place was packed. There was a line out the door. We decided we would take them on Friday after school. We ended up taking them out to dinner and then came home and watched a Movie with them. Jaycee wanted me to do her hair because it was Valentines Day.
I thought it turned out pretty cute...I love when we do her hair in Buns she looks to cute!


This is a double post of some of Jaycee's HairStyles we tryed over the last couple weeks. She is so funny now because she actually will get on and look at all the post of different hairstyles on the blog "She does hair!" and tell my try that one tomorrow. On the weekends I normally will not do her hair. I just tell her to stick in a headband and lately she is begging for me to do her hair.

Today Jaxen and I went outside. I am so sick of being inside and am ready for it to start warming up. It was still pretty cold outside but I know Jaxen was sick of being cooped up in the house. We went and seen the horses, Jaxen went out in the field chasing his cat, and he looked for rocks. Hopefully it warms up soon! We are sick of Winter!

Tonight after dinner I let the kids make a fun treat! While they were getting ready for bed I whipped up the stuff. I got this idea off a blog and have wanted to try it for awhile. The Blog is Gromet mom on the go (I have listed as one of my Fav.)! These are made out of prezels and white chocolate. I used the twisted wheat pretzels and white chocolate chips with food coloring. These are so easy I just let the kids do them while I printed the labels. I designed and printed out the labels.... however if you go her Blog she has labels you can download. I thought these would be cute for the kids to give out to their friends for Valentines Day! I am going to try to figure out a pattern for a box to put the crayons in! These are so fun and very easy!
