We started 2024 by staying up until midnight like the party animals we are aren't. All of us made it, even Evalynn, but she didn't make it the five minutes to home.
We spent a couple of weeks in January buried in snow, enduring arctic temperatures (like -38 degrees!), and making the best of it. The nice thing was, while public schools were canceled, we just kept on keeping on.
Trying to sled at the university. The snow was so deep it was almost difficult to sled!
But it was gorgeous!
Mike even had some delayed starts and a couple of snow days himself, which rarely happens.
Before she went out...
After...
Natalee's snowman.
It snowed and snowed and snowed...
Post snow play face cream.
The children also welcome hot chocolate, homemade waffles, and warm showers after some of their snow playdays.
While the snow was falling, and then melting, the children took turns passing around a virus.

I shampooed the rug. Then the furniture. Once you start you can't stop. But that water....sooooo satisfying.
There were also a lot of happy moments in spite of the sickness - playing, schooling, enjoying the days.
Shacket, pearls, scrunchie, phone....she is fashion.
I was afraid she was sick, but she wasn't - just a late nap!

Evie learned to snap!
Matchbox mice...
Fairy bread for breakfast...
I love her hair braided and pulled back out of her face...

The arctic temps, sickness, and piles of snow brought canceled plans. We had to postpone Beeler Christmas and the youngest three and I stayed home from church with a couple not feeling well. Then the next week another stayed home.....and thus the cycle.
But at home church streaming and this little cutie worshipping with her babies was really so sweet. Zayden is sleeping on the love seat.
Papa stopped by with frosties and fries!
And the yoto....books and music all day everyday.
That pretty well brings us to the last full week of January.
