January has come, school is back in session. Just like that, the Holidays are behind us.
And it is COLD out there, people!
It's crazy hair day!
We all did some spa treatments to re-hydrate the winter skin...
Paisley brushed out my hair. That I cut too short. And bleached too blond. Sigh....
Zeke came along with Jon and I to Eli's basket ball game. These games are brutal because they start at 9pm and it's -20 degrees outside. (It feels like it's that cold anyway- but I'm not joking about the late time!) I have to chuckle at Zeke. That Narwhal onesie goes on pretty much right after school no matter his plans for the night. He brought a $5 bill from his earnings from walking Copper to treat himself to the dollar treats in the school's vending machines. He bought 5 things. He's having a better time than I am, that is for sure.
The Sista's and I were able to sneak away for the much anticipated, much loved St. George trip. Paul and Sharon were so sweet, once again to oblige us. It was the best time with all the usual: Shopping, eating, a movie and chatting until the wee hours of the morning. Nothing better. Nothing. I am already dreaming of the next time we can get away!
While we were down there it was a blood moon. Just trust me, it was Neat-o!
Love these Sista's more than anything! (that's you too, Eliza!)
Paisley texted Daddy for some pictures for her Family Tree. I thought the ones he sent were so great!
As if Paisley could get even more adorably beautiful, she got GLASSES! Oh my goodness!
I dropped a gaggle of friends off at the Rec to get their winter wiggles out. Their happy chatter in the car made me smile.
When Jon and I aren't bundling up in the cold to see Eli play, we are bundling up to see Adren play at the rec. with his team. They aren't great, but Adren is always fun to watch.
More chillin' at the house with friends. This is the longest January in the history of time. Records have been broken and we all marvel each day that it is still January.
At least I don't live in Chicago!
I have a feeling it really is -20 when they go to their son's games at 9pm.
Speaking of more games- here's our Eli in action!
Here is one way to pass the time with your teens when there are 48 days in January- Share Memes! Apparently that is what the kids are doing these days, so one afternoon we sat around chuckling stupidly at what we could drum up:
And finally- I shared our Dad's dream- to live in a tiny house! This is what it will look like:
Har-Har. But really, Where are you, February???
And it is COLD out there, people!
It's crazy hair day!

| Zeke did rows of curls and two little pig tails at the back. Crazy! |
