Proof of Coolness

I've had a bit of a blogging break... mostly because this last week and a half have been crazy busy (when isn't life like that?) and partly because I haven't felt too inspired to share the craziness that is my life, but I have decided that if nothing else, our blog is a good spot to record the happenings of our life--even if it is sometimes not too exciting or inspiring or profound.

One of our favorite things to do as a family is play games... especially on Sunday afternoons (which is do-able since we have the earlier church schedule now!). Last week we pulled out the white board (thanks Terri and Bruce!) and taught the kids about Hangman. Olivia may not claim this phrase as her own when she is in her teenage years, but we have it on film: She thinks we are cool.
Coleman is just learning to write, so Liv helped him out when it was his turn. He decided to do a snowman for his man in the noose--and when we got a letter wrong, Olivia told him to put on an eye... so he drew an "I" right in the eye spot. Too cute!

Another day, the kids got creative with their train tracks and did a portrait of me when I'm happy... (funky chin shape there, eh?)

...and when I'm sad. I am sure they didn't do it on purpse, but I love that they used the blue tracks for the sad one. Both are works of art, no?
