Walgreens was out of a bunch of stuff that I was hoping to pick up today, but I did get a couple things that will make my family happy.
Seriously, I spent $.39!
Not your typical box of Cheerios

- She’s a silly girl
Ok, so technically I did turn this photo upside down. But I couldn’t resist! Her little eyes and nose hide so well in the little “O’s”!
Pulled this one out from my 2008 drafts. Bekah was 6. Ah, the days of playing with a cereal box.

Bekah is dressed like Laura Ingalls as we head out to Krispy Kreme
We had already determined that Saturday (2/26) was going to be our trip to Krispy Kreme to redeem our Valentine ‘free doughnut’ coupons, and then it snowed – again. We bundled up, drove to North Seattle, fed our fat cells, and then headed out for a walk.
Fun family morning!
Snowy streets
All loaded up snug as bugs!
Yummm!
The boys
The girls (and the dog)
Feeling daring with her rubber boots on, Ashley descends into the partially frozen ditch.
It’s “Twice the Value” time at Albertsons!
