Cold, Sunny, Snow, & Bubble Tea

It’s been cold, but beautiful here with the fresh snow, blue skies, and chilly temps.  It is supposed to get down to 4 degrees tonight, but it is already 7 degrees at 7pm…I think it may get below zero.

Tonight for dinner we made fruit smoothies (raspberries, peaches, banana, oranges, apples, blueberries, mango, strawberries, honeydew, cranberries, pineapple, and spinach) and put a batch of bubble tea/tapioca pearls in it.  It was very good.

Kebron Pics and Smoothies

Posted by Mykaela K. M.

Two days ago, February 21, was Malachi’s 9th birthday, and we took a special trip to the Ochoco N. F. to go sledding at a huge sledding hill up by the Crystal Springs Camp road.  Unfortunately, we forgot to bring the camera, but Papa took one or two pics on his cell phone, so maybe by the next post we will figure out how to get them off the phone and onto the computer!  We had a really good time.  Yesterday Mama made us smoothies in the VitaMix:

She puts Carrots, Strawberries, Blueberries, Apple Juice Concentrate, peaches, pineapple, plain yogurt, lemon juice, cranberries, and several other things in there.  I do make the smoothies myself sometimes, but I always have Mama blend them for me because the blender makes the most awful noises, so I usually let her make them!  :)  Here is a pic of me and Baby Kebron…

We were playing a card game, and I couldn’t stand to hear him cooing over in his seat, missing all the action!  :)  Here are a couple more of Kebron.

He is starting to grow hair in front…he has lots in the back, but he IS growing quite a bit in front!

He is very sweet and gives such big, sunny smiles.  He has yet to laugh, but…should be soon!  Smilegooka 001

Here is a picture of a GIANT lego tower that Kourage made for the family.  He came over to where we were playing a game about every thirty seconds or so to show us the progress!  (Moan!:)

Dear little guy, he was very intense about the whole thing!

Well, that’s about all the news…we are supposed to have a big snowstorm coming in in the next few days, so I’ll post some pictures of that, IF it happens! (Actually I just looked outside, and it looks like a snow globe, so maybe it will!)
