What I had for dinner
Eating healthy is a lot easier when you can throw together a whole bunch of yummy vegetables like Green peppers, Tomatos, Cucumber, Spinach, Romaine, and Grandma Parker's sweet pickeled beets. Mmm....I didn't even need any dressing. The only thing missing was some pineapple tidbits. And for dessert, I'm going to have some strawberry yogurt after the kids go to bed.
Sledding on New Year's Day.
For the second time in Emma's Seven years, we took the kids sledding. The first time, the temperature was in the single digits, not counting the wind chill, and Josh face planted in the snow. it was a very short trip.
This time, though, the weather was warm, the snow was good for it, and the kids were older, so had more fun. As you'll see, we also played a bit on the playground equipment. We took a few spills, but it was still fun for everyone.

Where we've been
Shortly before Christmas, Josh noticed my upside-down laptop on the coffee table and thought it looked thirsty. Helpful boy that he is, he gave it a drink of sprite. after two trips to BestBuy, it was sent away to a repair center who kept it for a month before deciding it was not reparable and threw it away.
In the meantime, January hit and I spent 3 of the 6 weeks between January 3rd and February 4th in training in Madison, WI, with all expenses paid by the U.
So now February is here, I have a new computer (Thanks, Geek Squad black tie protection!) and I have finally found my photo-shop disc and reinstalled it. Here are a few pictures that We've taken over the past few months. Erin took most of the pictures since I'm still a bit annoyed that the camera isn't taking quality pictures like it used to.
Erin came home one night to find that Luke had put Daddy to sleep. I'm pretty sure the clock was wrong. And I blame the tiara completely on Emma. It had nothing to do with either me or Lucas!
Sometimes Josh's love is a bit more than Luke can handle. Josh is a great big brother, though, and is always tyring to make sure that Lucas feels loved and taken care of.
I love the "Do you see what I have to put up with!?" expression here as Emma and Levi wrestle in the background.
A boy and his new Transformer.
Emma, Christmas "Morning" at Grandma and Grandpa Parker's. (I think we actually opened presents in the afternoon).
The kids, Christmas Day 2010. Levi didn't want his picture taken, so that's why he's not in it too.

Not worth posting...
but I'll do it anyway. My Camera is really frustrating me because I think the sensor's going out on it. It can't handle the dark like it used to and the focus always seems off to me. Still, here are some pictures of the tree trimming we did today:

Luke and Josh Photo Op
So here are some of the more "Professional" looking pictures I said I was going to try with Luke. Josh got a few shots in as well. Thanks to Tina and Eric for hanging out with us tonight. I'm way excited to see the shots that Tina got.

Tough questions
"So, how did it go sanding the red off the coffee table?"

Lucas needs to ponder on it a bit:

New Pictures of the kids
I'm still planning to do some more professional looking pics of Luke than I've posted - maybe this weekend - but in the meantime, Grandma Parker asked for updated pictures of the kids, so We took these today:
