Snowmaggedon

I was so sick of the snow I didn't even want to write about it. Now that we have had a break I can look back...but only through pictures...please let the snow be over!! These are some of my favorites from the 20+ inches of snow we had. We ate a lot, played a lot, and Jared shoveled a lot.

Happy Birthday to ME!

For my birthday, I got to choose my family date. So, I chose Shakespears (the best pizza in COMO), and the MU Gymnastics meet. It was the pink out, so I asked everyone to wear pink. Mea was thrilled, the boys aren't old enough to care and my fabulous hubby goes with the flow on these kinds of things! We had a fun evening. Jaden learned the MU cheer...along with the tiger growl....very funny! MIZ....OUUUUUUU (No, I didn't forget the 2nd Z, this is Jaden's way...it rhymes with ewww).

Snow Days

SNOW DAY Haiku

(January is when I usually did my poetry unit for 4th grade...this is a Haiku for them)

Sledding

Snow ice cream...yum-o

Cold FUN

You all are impressed by my Haiku skills :-)!

Favorite Christmas Gift

Mea and Jaden have really enjoyed the tent that Grandma Margie and Papa Davis gave them. They got 2, but I refuse to have a tent city in my house, so only Mea's is up (yes, it is still up).

For a couple of days they napped and watched tv from it. Then, it was moved to Mea's room where she slept in it for a week. Now, it is just up in there. When I can't find Mea, she is usually zipped in her tent, hiding from everyone for a little quiet time. Good present Grandma & Papa!

Our FANCY Dinner

I love Christmas traditons. This is one that I have brought from my parents. We have a fancy Christmas dinner, talk about the things we are thankful for, and enjoy one anothers company. It was a lot of fun!

The longer we ate the crazier it got!

Baby It's Cold Outside!

One of my favorite Christmas songs is Baby It's Cold Outside-right now my favorite version is Lady A's. I find myself singing it all season long. This picture reminded me of the song.
