Dance Party

Tonight we headed to Harper's preschool for a Valentines Day Party. We danced our little bums off while DJ Shif D spun the records;) Thats old skool talk, but crazy thing is... Shif D is an old college buddy of Shannon & Kates. Who knew he was doing preschool gigs? I actually went to a college party he DJ'd at years ago with them. "23rd & U what time is it? It's time to get LIVE, time to represent!" The scene looked a little different back then;).. Ok... A LOT different. FUNNY!! Come to find out, he does a lot of cool stuff around town with clubs and music. Anyways, small world it is here in the good life.

Happy Valentines Day!

Love,

The Kings

Last weekend...

Super Bowl Sunday we headed to Lincoln to hang with the g-rents & Aunt Shannon. It was a spontaneous fun filled visit. We painted the snow with our "snow paint", Teaf built a ramp for sledding, and we scooted around the front yard. We were going to head to a nearby slope for sledding but it started to get late and quite frankly we were being a bit lazy. Harper enjoyed her little hill just the same. The thing is she doesn't know the difference yet, so we can still get away with it;) Shannon and I had a moment when it was time to sled down the hill, guess it was a sister moment that I can't really explain, except for I was laughing so hard I cried the ugly cry and nearly peed my pants. Good times!

Snow day & cupcakes

Last weekend it snowed here about a foot. It was absolutely beautiful. "We" Nebraskans can appreciate the snow when it isn't happening all winter long. We haven't had much this winter so enjoyed every second of it. It helped that it wasn't freezing cold during the day. We headed over to our Grauntie and Gruncles house (Patti & Tom) to bake cupcakes and play in the snow. The girls had a blast, as did I. Teaf reaped the benefits of the baking and commented about how AMAZING the cupcakes were. He is wondering how Aunt Patti does it?! She is a great cook an all, but they were from the box. I mean if "we" follow the directions, shouldn't we all make such fabulously moist cupcakes? We're convinced it's her oven and mixer.

Wishy Washy

I don't know if I've said this here before, but I am wishy washy about the zoo. Everytime I go there (and the circus too), I get this feeling of saddness for the animals and their small spaces. The fact that they aren't able to be in their own habitat is bothersome. Then there is always a moment that happens and it hits me, where I go from wishy to washy. It's usually when we are face to face with an animal and learning all about the amazing creatures at the zoo. I know 100 percent that I do enjoy going there and watching my girls loving every second of their experience. We have a zoo pass so I guess there will be lots of wishy washy moments!
