Insta Friday

Here's a little bit of our week documented with my phone...

_________________________________________________________
Peppermint Mocha!
Delicious in my morning coffee...
And also delicious in my evening hot cocoa :)

And if you would look in the background Emma was pretending to be a
turtle in her shell at the breakfast table. :)
And obviously Colt is a naked turtle without his shell.  Bless his heart.


 
We pulled out the footy pajamas this week...


 
Lots of laundry was done...
the babes loved laying on the warm piles that had just been pulled from the dryer :)


 
This past week a woman from our church blessed me more than she will ever know!
She watches my kids at the church for an hour during the week while I am up there practicing piano.
(I'm the church pianist and the big Christmas performance is coming up)
Not only does she love on my kids...
this past week she brought food up to the church and had the kids help her make our dinner for that night!
They made tater tot casserole and Clown Salads :)
I felt so blessed and loved it made me want to cry!


 
Another friend watches my kids for an hour while I teach her daughter piano lessons.
She too is such a giver and is SO thoughtful.
She usually comes with a roll of masking tape.
They usually make sticky bracelets out of the tape and walk around outside collecting "nature" to stick to their bracelets. So cute!
This past week she made the kids a road out of masking tape...
They play with it CONSTANTLY! 
Such a genius idea!


 
This same friend also brought me some soup and a magazine last week when I wasn't feeling the best.
Again...could just cry at her kindness.
This past week people have been SO kind to me...
It has really made me think long and hard about how am I loving on and blessing others.


 
The kids love to pretend they're doing "homework" :)



 
I think my favorite part of our week is our trip to the library.
Because this is what the kids look like until we leave.....







 
Awesome isn't it? :)
