Winter Wonderland!


Sean woke me this morning like a little kid in a candy store...LOOK OUTSIDE! I got up and looked out our window and it was so beautiful out! SNOW! No one had been out yet and it just sparkled. We watched the news real quick to see if school was closed, as soon as that was confirmed..we jumped back in bed and slept...only for about 20 mintues and the boys woke up ALLLLLL excited about the snow...Kole was filling me in on all the plans for the days fun...So now we are waiting to get out there and play. The snow is still coming down and we have a great hill for sledding!

We all love snow..except for Miss Riley..who spent the majority of her time crying last year because it was yucky....I asked her if she wanted to go play and she crinkled her nose and said a sassy little..I don't think so...It was funny!

Kids...Life would be so dull without them

The other night we were driving to the store to get medicine for my sick kiddos. They have been passing around this cold thing...My hubby and I were talking about the bug the kids have...He mentioned he wanted to go home..sit in the "sauna" and kill all the bugs so he would not get sick....My 9 year old perked up and was upset about what he thought was said...He questioned..."Dad...Why do you want to go to "Sonic" and kill all the people?"....We laughed so hard! So funny what kids hear!

Callie....The crazy Cheeto eating cat...






I came down stairs this morning to fix the boys breakfast...I opened the pantry and found a HUGE shredded mess.....and my sweet, meowing, Callie Cat.


I had fixed lunches last night and Callie wanted the kids Cheetos..She kept jumping on the counter to eat them..So I had to fight to keep her away to whole time....Well the stinker must have hid in the pantry to attack the Cheetos bag and have herself a Cheeto fest last night! For some strange reason she is ADDICTED to Cheetos...GO FIGURE!



Off to clean up the mess! ha ha









Mr Griswold and his lights






We had a lights competition in our neighborhood again this year...The Lights of Lochmoor....We got 2nd last year..so Sean went a little wacky on the lights this year....only to get 2nd again! I was laughing so hard when he read it..He was so mad..Can you imagine what the 1st place house looked like. Now I have to figure out a way to make the soul train dissapear! He has become the inflatable king! I got a count down clock...I got lots of greif from that clock...Neighbors(and you know who you are and thanks for fixing it) saying it was off and kids reminding their parents how many days were left...it was fun....Here are some pics of our 2nd place prize of a house. Better luck next year Seanypoo.......We have got to get the Vegas Palms! ha ha...(I am only kidding! No plams!..PLEASE!)

Basketball....Gotta getcha head in the game



Kole started basketball a few weeks ago..I went to go see him practice tonight...I braved taking all 3 of the kids and it went well...Kaden played with some boys from our neighborhood and Riley tagged along. They were funny. There were 7 of them I think....2 "O" boys, 2 "P" boys and my crew..they thought they found a ghost in the church....Riley kept taking us over there to look..Such imaginations. Here are some videos..

Forgotten Halloween Party Pictures....




































Sean and I went to a neighbors HALLOWEEN PARTY. It was a couples thing and for our costume we were PEACE AND QUIET....I was a Hippie and Sean was a MIME....Yes..we should have been opposite..but that is what Halloween is all about right! Anyway...We won for most creative or something like that...It was fun. I was going through old emails and found the pics...The Kodak vendor lives in our hood and brought a ton of disposable cameras...so there were a trillion pictures. I will post a few of SOOOOO many! Our neighbors really went all out! It was a great party...
