Catch Up

Okay so I am constantly playing catch up with this blog. Jaden dumped a LARGE glass of water on our last laptop a couple of weeks ago, so that is going to be my excuse for not posting much lately. I will post pictures of Grandma Decker's visit, the new house, and birthdays, but for now I just have a couple of pictures on the ipod to share...

Isn't this the Best thing in the WHOLE WORLD!

And for all of those giving me crap about cutting Jensen's hair...this is why. Before he looked like a refugee, dirty, little, mess. Now what a handsome little man :-)! I know, I know his hair was amazing, but seriously, after eating it was discusting. And days later, even after a bath, I was picking leftovers out of the nappy mess!

Before After

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!
