Wrapping up the Week - Collage Friday

Welcome to our weekly collage in pictures. It was a snowy week on and off and the Superbowl kicked it all off last Sunday!

So glad the Broncos won!

A little glimpse into our family party. We had karaoke, food, drinks, the game on on 3 TV's, video games going on another..over 30 people came and celebrated with us. It was great fun!

Monday we had our Chinese New Year teachings and a lot of book reading. Seems like we are at the library all the time these days! Molly finished a chapter book also, which is a HUGE thing for her, as she hates reading 8(

Yes I am the squirrel whisperer and they know it. They come every day and I feed them. They come up to the window by the computer and let me know they are ready to eat. LOL

Zachary's latest LEGO Stop Motion video

Lots of Legos (I feel it's the same pictures every week..lol) Those are Molly's IPHONE Cases she is making. Cute, right!? Now I just noticed that there is the same picture of Sammie eating her Cheerios with her chopsticks in both collages..LOL
