Snow Days!!!

We have had a great couple of snow days. Here is our 2 days in pictures!!!

After hearing ice was on it's way I rushed to the store to pick up the essentials....

and, yes I got milk!!! You can't have all this without milk!

I am embarrassed to say that this may be the first time both my kids have gotten to play in snow and enjoy it!!! (and I don't think this qualifies as a big snow). So, they went out in their pjs and coats to check it out! Megan made a bird feeder at MDO and she put it on the deck for the birds.

Laci fell on her booty and Meg thought it was soooo funny that her booty had snow on it!!

Megan sucking on an icicle!

They thought it was hilarious to throw snowballs on one of our back doors!!!

Of course Brad had to get in on the snowball fights which is why I stayed inside!

We spent Friday at my house by the fire with Sarah and Nonny!

A "snowman"????!!?!?!!?!?

Megan warming up her booty by the fire!!!!

Downtime, playing on the iPhones!

We got a few pictures of the girls sledding. The fairway of the hole behind our house was a big hit for sledding so I had to go watch although I was freezing!

Here is Megan sleeding down on Brad's back!!! It was sooo cute!

We did head to Target today because we were starting to get cabin fever and did okay, not too slick. Brad has already been on the computer looking to book a vacation to go snow skiing! He has had the fever and seeing how much the girls loved the snow he is ready to go. I guess we'll have see what the year holds! :)

Big Buck Classic

Brad and his dad took the girls to the Big Buck Classic. He said it was soooo crowded that it was hard to enjoy. But, Laci and Megan said they had a good time and got to see some neat things! Mainly, a "big green tractor" and a rattlesnake!!!!

Finally!!!!

I have finally figured out how to download the pics/videos from my phone! So, these are from awhile back, but I wanted to post them!

Here is Megan and her new "Big Green Tractor." She got this for her birthday and on one of the warm days we got outside and she was hauling boxes around.

Just a cute little picture from Laci's first day she had to go back to school!

These next 3 pictures are from our Anniversary trip to Dallas. This is Brad sitting in a Love Sac. They were in a store in the Dallas mall and Brad was in "love." We got two of them to got in his new office/video game room!

This was the Christmas tree in the middle of the iceskating rink at the Galleria! It was awesome and very fun to watch all the grown-ups bust it on the ice!!!

Unfortunately, they were not giving tours of the new Cowboys Stadium while we were there but we drove by and I took a couple of pics with my phone! It was awesome...from the outside!

And, now a few videos!! I figured out how to do this on my phone so expect a few more videos to come!!!!

These videos were taken in Brad's new office/video game room. We still need to decorate the room that is why the walls are bare. But, as you can see, we are loving the sacs!!!!

Here are some interviews we did when the kids were supposed to be in bed!!!

Gymnastics Meet #2

Sunday Laci had her 2nd gymnastics meet. It is in Pine Bluff and she did great! We were so proud! She remembered her routines and did pretty well on each event. It was funny b/c she did not place too high in the individual events, but since she was consistent in all four of her scores she placed 3rd overall!!! She was excited and so were we!!!!

Laci and her medals!!!

I was so excited when they announced her 3rd overall!! I took a picture of the number because I couldn't her and the number in the pic!!!

What a fun day!!!

Panther Game Ready

We have spent several Friday nights going to the Benton basketball games to watch our Lukee, the NCA National Champion Cheerleaders and some of our many new friends!!!! Here is a picture I took of the girls right before we left! I got them bundled up and told them to get whatever they needed to go to the game!!! They grabbed everything we had in the house that was maroon and white!!!! and, yes we took all of this to the game!!!! At one point Megan went and lined up her poms with the Pepsteppers!! We enjoy going to the games and the girls sleep so good on those Friday nights!!!

Charlie Misses Laci...

Charlie has been a little sad since Laci had been back at school. She usually plays with him until he is too tired to walk and then he will fall asleep in her lap. Laci also protects him from Megan and now Charlie's protection is gone!!!!!

Megan treats him like a baby. She was holding him and bouncing saying, "shhh, shhh, shhh, it's okay."

Yesterday he even went into his crate and went to sleep all by himself just to get away from Megan!

What we do on our days off...

Oh, how we have enjoyed our time off. I wasn't ready to get back in the grove of things today! I enjoyed having Laci home and just lounging around by the fire in our pj's. Here are some pictures from our "lazy days."

First of all, the perfect brownie!!! Sarah and Ben got me "The Perfect Brownie" set for Christmas and it is amazing!!!! It worked perfectly and was so easy!!! Here are a couple of pics!

2 brownies gone...this was obviously before I got ahold of them!!!!!

The girls spent about 2 hours the other day playing dress-up in my closet.

We spent a lot of time playing in the playroom Here is Laci working on her Toe Touch. They would take turns and use the cash register to "calculate the scores."

Putting on a show!

Laci with her hair in sponge rollers!

We had a great Christmas break! Laci is back at school and Charlie is trying desperately to get away from Megan. I think he misses Laci the most!!!
