1st Family Game Night

 

We had our 1st ever family game night during our last weekend on Prairie Rd. Nothing says family fun like a good old fashion game of Go Fish! The version Austin got for Christmas is so cute. It's great for learning numbers, colors and Sharing/Turn Taking - which we're still working on! Dad ended up the big winner, but Austin and I know we can take him next time!

Wordless Wednesday: No room in the Inn

Demolition Begins...

The demolition of our house has officially begun. (Yes, we're still living downstairs! Out of site out of mind -- which is why it was such a mess for the past nine years!) Austin has enjoyed helping Nana, Pa and Aunt B remove the old trim, doors and electric heaters. We're still not 100% sure what we're going to do with it all, but I'm sure we'll find it a loving home someday! 

Love Day {2011}

 

Valentine's Day was quiet in the Kiefer household. I think there should be a rule that all holidays (big and small) fall on the weekend! Austin was excited about his gift basket: Bob The Builder and the Golden Hammer, a YoYo, match box car, PEZ and heart fruit snacks. I think I could have made him just as happy with the fruit snack alone! Oh well, I have fun putting together his special treats! 

We hope your hearts were full of love on Valentine's Day!

Happy Birthday Dustin!

We've been to some fun winter birthday parties this year! First there was Lila's Ice Cream Shoppe party, and then Bella's Gymbo Play & Music party and now, Dustin's sledding party! Everyone was excited when the homemade sled came out after lunch was cleaned up and presents were opened. The kids reminded me of ants on a log as they moved around the yard.

Happy 5th Birthday, Dustin!
