A Peep into What the Morton's Have Been Up To..

~Dinner with Grandpa and Grandma~
What's this? I believe it is another butter mess in the oven :) We are very thankful that this incident was not nearly as bad as the other one, and did not cause the smoke alarms to go off. :)

Cleaning....

..and cleaning! Thanks for you help, Grandma!

~The view outside our windows for awhile~

Roadwork. Isn't it lovely when the city decides to work on your road in the dead of winter so you have to park your car elsewhere and climb through mud and snow to get to it?! Well, maybe "climb" is a little bit of exaggeration, but it felt like we were climbing sometimes :)

Pouring dirt

Moving dirt

Big equipment

The hole right in front of our steps

Mumzie enjoying the fire while Daddy....

Grills our dinner! (yes, we actually grill with snow on the ground :D)

Daddy and Me
Every cook reserves the right to taste their food before serving :)

~Trip to the A.'s store~

Some of the kids were playing in the snow when we arrived. As you can see, one was more than happy to pose, while the other was throwing snowballs at me :)

~Dinner with Grandma, Aunt Beth, and some cousins~

We visited "Brendan's Chocolate Corner" to purchase some chocolate!
"I want to be a real cowboy girl..."

Eden!

Too cute!

Grandma and her *gasp* CAT?????!!! :D

Aha... Grandma and her dog. Looks much better. :)

Brendan and Eden

Brendan made a maze game with pillows and an ottoman! 3 toys would be hidden along the maze and they had to be found by the person going through the maze.

Yay! Brendan found all the toys!

So did Natalie!

Yes, even the Morton Maiden played :)

  1. :O You grilled? That stuff looks amazing...

    Hey, with that hole, watch out for the last step. It's a doozy! :D

    That game looks fun. I'm not terribly sure I could fit through it though... :P

  2. What fun you all have been having! It makes me miss you all so...

    My dear Morton Maiden - how delightful to see you participating in the maze game. I thought my sisters and I were just about the only ones that did that sort of thing. :)
