Life as We Know It

A month ago Dad Burr had a tear in his aorta and was rushed to the hospital. We were all very worried for the outcome. So many people began fasting and praying for him and we believe that is why he is here today. This picture was taken in the ICU a few days after it happened. 

 Here he is two weeks later in a rehab facility. He is a living miracle!

Making princess cupcakes with Emily. I'm not sure if she likes helping me or eating them more. ;-)

Our sweet little Leslie

Our adorable Abby

We love having three little girls! Leslie and Abby are only 15 months apart and are just about the same size!

Last Sunday we made Valentine's Day sugar cookies. They turned out cute.

This one was made especially for Dad Burr...our open heart surgery sugar cookie.

Our Valentine's Day: decorated kitchen,

 heart pancakes for breakfast,

 flowers,

 and dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. Turns out I really like my valentine!

 Happy Valentine's Day from Boise, Idaho!

On Friday we went over to the Wrights' for a play date. Our kids had fun, even these two little babies: Clara and Abby.

 We have a future musician!

Yesterday Greg went skiing up at Tamarack.

Look at what he skied in...he's pretty hard core!

While he skied, I took the girls up to McCall, Idaho to visit my cousin Lucinda. We all had such a great time!

After a few hours, we came down to Tamarack to pick up Greg and he was soaking in the hot tub with my brother and sister-in-law...what a life! Since he didn't have swimming trunks he borrowed my brother's and it just so happened that they fit like a glove (j/k).
