MORE FEBRUARY

Soooo... this is a long post because it's been a busy 2 1/2 weeks.  Let's get started:

Valentine's Day was wonderful!  I have an amazing, eternal Valentine!  And our entire family celebrated with fondu!  (Katia prepared it for all of us.)   Delicious!  And Spence was spoiled with new stuffed animals.

Skittles showing off!
Mmmmmm, Fondu!

Katia has been begging us to take her to Red Robin since she got home.  So we all went two Fridays ago.  Red Robin! Yummmm!

Silly Katia loves her bottomless fries!
So does Skittles!
We all love spending time together!

Kentucky suffered through an ice storm.  It was FREEZING!  But beautiful!  I hate being cold, but I really did enjoy looking out the window and the snow covered, ice sculpted beauty that was our world for a week.

Our back yard!
Look at the ice!
Simple beauty!

We got to go to Idaho.  Scott had work meetings there, and I tagged along.  Instead of taking pictures, I spent time visiting and enjoying my family!  I only took a few pictures - mostly of my grand nephew.  He's so adorable!  I'll call him Blueberry!  (Shout out to his beautiful, blue eyes!)  And for the record, he kicks his legs while he eats (in case that is a red flag.  Ha ha ha!)

This snowman was bigger than a two story home!
It's located across the street from my brother's home!
Cuddling my grand nephew!
Blueberry and Me!
Learning new games with Ben is so much fun!

Today Kiara and I got to babysit Ice Cream!  She's soooo adorable!  And Skittles adored her!  It was so fun!

Ice Cream LOVES bubbles!
She squawked every time we stopped blowing the bubbles.
They are already good friends!

Of course, I have a LOT of random photos of my grandson (and a few other random pics):

Skittles loves birds!
He loves looking outside the window at the trees - searching for birds!
Look what I found today!
Spring?!  I hope so!
I spotted a rare Katia Bird in our backyard tree stump!
Clopping and racing with grandpa is so much fun!
"Give me ALL the stuffed animals!"
Grandpa + Book + Cookie = Pure Joy
Skittles loves sitting in Grandpa's Chair
Soooo smart!

ARE YOU READY FOR THIS?

 Are you ready to read some more about the lives of the DeGooyers?  If so... continue on!

This week was full of adorable kids, yummy food, football games, and a temple trip!  How blessed we are!

Waking up to this adorable smile makes the day almost perfect!
Playing with my grandson!
Where's grandma?
I am COVERED in cars, tractors and trains!
These two boys love to eat suckers while we exercise.
They always sit next to each other and are content as long as the candy lasts.
I love these boys so darn much!
And my dear friend brought her little girl over for some cuddle time!
Meet Ice Cream!
Isn't she adorable?!
Raisin is lovin' on Starburst and Skittles!
Making food for our Superbowl spread.
Marmalade and Nuts made this DELICIOUS brownie dessert!
Here's our yummy spread!
- veggies - fruit - fruit spread - buffalo chicken dip -
- bacon wrapped smokies - pinwheels - bean dip - 
- chips - pico - cheese ball - crackers - chips - etc. 
With all the delicious food to choose from,
I laughed that Raisin filled her plate with only jelly beans!
Here's our future Jets fan!
His smile is my favorite!
And my wonderful son joined in the celebration by sporting his Jets Super Hero cape!
And today... we got to go to the temple!
This is our favorite place to be EVER!
We are happy!  We are busy!  Stay tuned - because next week, Scott and I will be in Idaho with my family again!  Of course there will be a blog post following the visit!
