It really isn't as cold in our home as it may look from this picture. I had just bought winter outfits and toilet paper (which the kids were in charge of putting away). Who can resist trying on new cloths on such a soft bed?
It is so nice to have a dragon to help you make cookies.
While Amber and her big boys have been tackling the grueling bicycling merit badge, I've had the rest of her kids. I discovered really quick that kids who are working are easier to watch.:) Our yard has almost unlimited possibilities for work (and the kids like earning nickles in exchange). In this particular picture we are in the process of moving 1 ton of rocks from our front yard. The kids also washed all my windows on a different bike riding day.
Carl loves monitoring yard work and keeping track of inventory. Jane is still picking peppers for us to eat. I think she just does it for the purple basket.
I made a pizza with olives, green peppers, pineapple and ham and called it the Hackett Supreme. The kids said, "What a great name! Those are all the foods that we all love!" I consider this to be a sign of great parenting since Ryan detests olives and I hate green peppers. Clearly they haven't noticed subtle signs on our faces when gulping them down as fast as we can. Ryan and I gave each other air hi-fives for that one.
