Woolly Mammoths

In science we were learning about extinction. So I was explaining it to Hattie and she was said the cutest thing!
Hattie: *sad face*
Ella: "Why are you sad?" 
Hattie: *in her pitched sad voice* "There's no more cute, fluffy, baby, woolly mammoths left. We can't go to Africa to visit them anymore. They're 'xtinct. (Extinct)"
I almost became extinct laughing!

Tomato-Joy

Its snowing like mad outside! We decided to go and check out the creek behind our house... After coming in freezing cold and taking off layer after layer of winter gear this conversation transpired... I laughed so hard!

Hattie: *sees herself in the mirror and giggles*

Me:"What's so funny, little boo?"

Hattie:"I look like a tomato!"

Happy New Year!

Note: Haha! Before you ask, yes, I'm completely aware that it is April 13th and New Year's was ages ago. But I'm going to post this anyway as not to lose memories...
..........................................................................

Happy New Year everyone!! This year I am really going to try my hardest to post more often... I cannot believe its 2018 already! Some highlights (and low points😃) of 2017...


1. Moving! In August we packed up all of our belongings, said goodbye to our old house, and moved into the grandparents basement. Our new house is currently being built and (if everything goes well) should be finished beginning of April.

2. Florida Family Vaca! In the middle of March, we took a plane to Florida and had a blast! I think that trip has etched into me a life-long love for the Ocean.. 🌊🌊🌊

3. The Dells with the extended fam! I LOVE the dells! And this trip didn't disappoint... Swimming with your cousins, grandparents, aunts, and uncles is a blast! I am so glad I got to spend time with them all!

4. Family Camp Trip! The family camp at Whitney's was so much fun! I look forward to that trip so much every year! Thank you so much Whitney for hosting that!


Here's to 2018!

Little miss weights

Hattie found Grammie's weights and decided to try them out...
Me: "Hattie what are you up to?"
Hattie: "I'm just getting my strength."
It was so cute I had to take a picture. I get out the phone and Hattie immediately puts them down. So I try to convince her and finally she relents.

Then she says "I'll make a grrr face now so the blog people know they are heavy."

After I take her picture she says "Make sure you get the 3 so they know that it weighs three pounds."

Friday Funnies

I am just sitting at the computer checking my email when I hear this funny conversation.




                                           *******************************
Cora: Skunks are my favorite animal!
Hattie: I don't like skunks. They stink
Cora: Dogs drool and they stink. People like them. Skunks are cool.
                                           ********************************
I burst out laughing😁... Too true Cora, too true.
