Spring in February?

We have had unusually sunny & warm weather this winter.  In fact this weekend was sunny and almost 60 degrees!  We took advantage of the nice weather and spent the afternoon at Kelsey Creek Farm running around and checking out the animals.  

Happy Valentine's Day

Kallie loves Valentine's Day...her favorite part is making Valentines for her friends and giving mommy and daddy extra snuggles which of course we love.  Since I was still fighting a horrible head cold we spent the day relaxing and heading out for burgers as a family.

I feel so lucky to have two very special Valentines❤️ (well 3 if you includes Coho...he was my first born after all).

The Bates Infirmary

January was a month of sickness at the Bates household.  First Kallie had walking pneumonia and then Eric had it shortly after.  They were both better for about a week and then went down again with a horrible cough.  We have cleaned, work masks, cleaned some more and everyone is ALMOST healthy one month later (well minus the fact that I have a head cold but who's keeping track, mom's can't get sick)!
