Sibling Pranks!

Jeremy and Jordan love to tease each other. Jordan planned to prank Jeremy while he was at a hockey game with a friend.
... It Starts!...

1st..........................................................................................
Jordan sews all of Jeremy's socks and underwear together and hangs them in his room. She then puts confetti all over the room. Then she ties his door shut and tapes it. Her friend Taylor helps out toward the end.

The Sign she made.

The Culprits

........................................................................................................................................................

Jeremy's response:

He waits until she is gone to an overnighter with friends. He took all of her clothes and pinned them to the wall.

.........................................................................................................................................................

Jordan's response was to put his clothes in a garbage bag and put it in the freezer.

She then took all of his stuff out out of his room and put it into her room. She made a photo wall of herself on his wall and left a blanket for him to sleep. Wasn't that thoughtful of her?

Jeremy's stuff set up in her room.

The beautiful thing about these pranks is that they cleaned their rooms to keep from their stuff from going too crazy. CRAZY KIDS!

Chinese New Years!

Every year we go to the Coeurd'Alene Chinese New year's celebration with local families who have adopted children from China.

The girls in their Chinese outfits.

We played games and had cake. Here is Emma.

The girls are wearing their Chinese Necklaces they made at the party and their necklaces they got in China.

Cutest Kids EVER!

Jeremy and Jordan. Don't let them fool you. They are not this nice to each other. If you look at Jordan's hands and Jeremy's arms, you will see that Jeremy is holding Jordan down and she is trying to hit him. Hmmmm.... wonder where they get this brotherly/sisterly fighting from. Certainly not from their mom and her brother Jim.

Valentines Day outfits. They had a party at daycare. SO CUTE!

1st Valentine cards.

Cross-Country Skiing!

Eric took me on a date to ski in the woods. There has been so little snow that we had to go to the top of Fernan Saddle to find SOME snow. I hadn't been on skis since I was a kid. You can imagine that it took me a while to figure it our.

We both fell a lot. We were glad no one was around. :)

It was a beautiful warm day. Especially for January.

I actually got stuck under this log. Eric had to help me by pulling me until I could get out. Not as easy as it looks.

Strangely enough, I fell a lot too. I do not get out in the snow much, so I never buy my own snow clothes. I am wearing Eric's snow clothes and I look like the Pillsbury dough girl. :)

Isn't he cute!!!

Jordan's 14th Birthday

My beautiful daughter is now 14. Don't ask on the cake. She had a better cake at the family party. She just wanted ice-cream for her actual party. Thus, we had ice-cream with a Christmas candle.

Jordan becomes more beautiful every day. Not what a parent wants with a 14 year old girl. LOL. She is smart, funny, kind, honest, loyal, loves God with all her heart and a blessing.

Wow! So Far Behind!

Wow! Ok... I know that it has been 3 months. I am a little behind. Here are the girls playing outside, in sweat-shirts, in JANUARY! What in the world. Normally we are in the middle of snow at this time. Emma is our taller wonder and Nyah our little one.

Aaron Home for Christmas!

It was nice to have Aaron (Eric's Brother) home for Christmas, while in Klamath. Aaron is now living in a group home in Klamath Falls. He is doing very well and seems so happy. It was so nice to have him with us. He is such a happy blessing to all of us.
