The Winter Carnival


 In the middle of January, our little town hosts a fun event.  The winter carnival!
Saxton fished ALL day.


 Fun times with dad!



 Meanwhile, some of us went to a free show and and lunch!  And picked out a free prize!
Here are the kids with the founder of the Carnival.  It was fun to say thank you.







And the boys kept fishing...




 
 Then we were on to FREE bowling!




 Check out her great form!
 And here they are with their biggest catch of the day!

What a fun day.
AAAAAND, my boys built me some awesome shelves in the basement for storage.
(sigh)
I'm so grateful.

Nathan the Cassanova

One day, the girl who gets this boy will find herself tied to the most hopeless romantic imaginable.

Here are some of the things he has said to me in recent months:

"I am snuggling the most beautiful girl in the world"

"The good news is:  We have one HOT  LADAY in the house!!"

"I love you more than anyone ever loved their mom.  And if there is someone else in the world saying that same thing, they are lying because I love you more than them."

"You are the best cook in the whole world.  You are like better than the White House Chef!"

(today, while making FHE treat):  "My mom can stir better than anyone I have ever seen!"

(often, with dreamy look in his eyes):  "I love you".


Heavenly Father sent this boy to me for many reasons.  But one of the fun ones is that he makes me feel great on a daily basis!
