"My House is a Wreck!"

Hi! I am Elizabeth. Things have been happening pretty fast in my life! I
just married Mr. Right, became a stepmother to two fabulous kiddos, and had a
new baby- all in the last year and a half! Add a couple of moves and my 36th
birthday in there and you will understand why I am feeling the need to record
this crazy stage of our lives! At least now I can come back and read about it
someday- I know I won't remember! Oh, and keep in mind that I while I am posting
the good memories and high points of our daily life- my house really is a wreck!

Do you SNOW how much I LOVE YOU?

Hello Loves!  Hope you had a Happy Valentine's Day!  We are FINALLY enjoying pleasant weather here after a couple of weeks of inclement weather!  Everything tends to shut down when a few flakes fall here, but when you get two 4-5 inch snows in a week- well... 
Everybody shuts down!!  And we sure joined in!  There were a few days that John Stephen and I never left the house!  Finally, I decided we should take a family walk in the snow...
Yeah, that didn't go so well.  I put John Stephen's hood up and tucked a blanket over him, but by the time we had gotten down the street he was screaming bloody murder!  Don had to scoop him up and walk as fast as he could back to the house- leaving me with the wagon and the dog!  As they walked, pieces of John Stephen's snow garb were falling off in the street, and all of the neighboorhood surely could hear him crying!  A little embarrassing to cause a neighborhood scene!  I guess he was cold- poor baby!  Anyway, I am a little dissapointed that my idea of a family tromp through the snow didn't pan out!
So, after the snow thawed we turned around and it was Valentine's Day!!

I made Chicken Picatta for dinner and we shared a bottle of wine.  And we helped Pax (he did not share in the wine:)) work on his science project!  I guess in retrospect we should have saved the science project for a night when we were not going to have a bottle of wine! Just Kidding!  We did the work before dinner and wine:)!  I enjoyed Valentine's with all of the men in my life!  (Sydney wasn't here, but I got to deliver her Valentine earlier in the day!) 
And, today Don had a meeting, and I have been working on my computer.  Everything is great except that I am here with this...

Hope it is thawing out where you are!  Pray for my self control!!
