One Year

Today it is one year that my mom had passed away. I thought the weekend would be harder than it was but I was pretty busy and didn't take time to think about it. It has hit me harder with today being the actual date.

I didn't get to see my mom on a regular basis because we lived so far apart. Some days I can't believe she is gone. I can't call her up to talk. I blog about the boys and she'll never get to know them. It just makes me very sad. I really miss her.

How long did the maze last?

I posted on Thursday and here is the picture I took on Saturday. It lasted 2 days, yippee!! They had fun.

Marble Mazes

My boys love marbles and mazes. Put them both together and look what you get. The only problem is setting it up. It takes a good 30 minutes to put together and about 30 minutes for my boys to tear it apart. It is not something they play with everyday but when given the chance... it is all they will play with. We'll see how many minutes/hours/days this maze will last.

The Things I Get Into

Dylan could probably have a blog of all his own. That is because he tends to get himself into some interesting situations. He obviously found a soft somewhat melted crayon in the car...I guess he put it to good use huh?! During his nap he got into some stickers he found in his room. Once again the face tells it all. What are we going to do with that boy?!

Visiting with Friends

This past week one of my best friends from my high school days made a trip down from Chicago with her 4 children. We had a lot of fun. Her children are older than mine which had no affect on anyone. They just adored and played with each other. It was a great time to catch up, hang out, and play. It is really neat to spend time with each others children now that we are parents. We only get to see each other once a year, if that. Time has passed but our friendship has remained the same or at least the best it can for being so far away from each other.
