This and that

My daughter was walking around the house singing, "kiss me, kiss me.........marry me" What a kid. I have to say though when you need a pick-me-up, she's the one to go to. She always telling me that I look beautiful or she will stop playing and run up and give me a hug and say "I love you so much" and then she is off again. I definitely enjoy that while it lasts. I am a wee bit concerned about her getting older and what she will be like with boys. Here's a couple pics from skiing last Saturday. We didn't realize the camera was set to black and white. Here we are eating the lunch. The lodge up there is small and on nice days, it's easier to just eat at the car. Kim brought up "the cousins" for the day. My kids loved skiing with them. I didn't see Connor or Chase the whole afternoon. And last, the hot ski Mama. I had Mike take this to show off, but it ended up in the black and white. Oh well, my stuff is black and white anyway.

What Color Crayon Are You?-->
You Are a Yellow Crayon
Your world is colored with happy, warm, fun colors. You have a thoughtful and wise way about you. Some people might even consider you a genius. Charming and eloquent, you are able to get people to do things your way.While you seem spontaneous and free wheeling, you are calculating to the extreme. Your color wheel opposite is purple. You both are charismatic leaders, but purple people act like you have no depth. (Mike was purple, how funny is that.)



What Movie Is Your Love Life Like?
What Movie Is Your Love Life Like?-->
Your Love Life is Like Pretty Woman
"I want the fairy tale" You believe that love is truly blind, unpredictable, and surprising. Two very different people can easily find true love. At least, that is how it will happen when you marry a gorgeous billionaire someday ;-)
Your love style: Sensual and flirty (I'm not so sure about this.)
Your Hollywood Ending Will Be: Surprisingly happy

I couldn't get the pictures to upload. These quizzes were fun.

Box Child

Before Christmas, we received quite a few packages in the mail. Amazon was Santa's friend. Anyway, one day Kenna was so excited about this box. She took it in her room and played in it, put her dolls in it, etc. Later in the afternoon, she came and told me to come look at it. She had it all set up on her bed with her pillow and blanket inside. She has slept in it ever since. The sides only held up a day or two before collapsing (it was a shallow box.) I keep asking her if she's done with it. Absolutely not. The other night, she woke up crying. When I went in to see what was wrong, she started yelling at me for throwing her box away. I hadn't, but she had slid down off of it while sleeping and couldn't feel it anymore. Are there long term effects to this? Will it go to college with her? Does it bod well for her life's ambitions? I'm just not sure. Speaking of her life's ambitions, I'm pretty sure one of them is to be a diva princess. She put this show on for us the other day. She couldn't figure out how to hold her guitar and microphone at the same time.
