School Carnival 2009

The school carnival was this weekend. The theme was a 50's theme. They had the sock hop, Elvis room, played 50's music. It was alot of fun. They played many games, from dart throwing to sack races, the inflatables, and face painting. Colton had fun playing basketball and of course they loved the cotton candy. Good thing we went to the dentist last week. LOL! Here are some pictures of Colton throwing the darts, Emma and Gracie racing each other in the sack race and Anna in the inflatable slide. Lots of fun!!!

Snow Day

Well today is the 2nd snow day in a row. We are getting cabin fever, the kids are starting to fight. I am going crazy. So today we got our snow clothes on and went outside. Well I guess I should say 3 out of the 4 went outside. Anna said it was too cold. I'm with her. I hate the cold weather. Give me a beach and warm weather anyday. Gracie came inside after about 20 minutes, but Colton and Emma stayed outside for about an hour and a half. I finally had to make them come inside and warm up. They brought in some snow and after dinner we made snow ice cream. Yummmm! I guess we will be going on day 3 of this snow day vacation. Stay tuned to see what other entertainment we turn to as this week gets longer and longer.

Jimmy's Birthday

Friday was Jimmy's 35th Birthday. The girls where so excited, that is all they could talk about the whole week. His dad and step-mom came from Alabama to celebrate with him. We all went to dinner and then came home for cake. It is hard to imagine that he is 35. Is that considered "middle age?" He had a good day.

Christmas 2008

Christmas Eve, we went over to mom and dads. Todd, Diane, the kids, Grandma Shirley, and Jack was there. We ate, and opened up presents. The kids had fun running around playing with Abby and TJ. Later that night before we left, all the kids put on the PJ's and Papa read them Twas the Night Before Christmas. It was cute to see them all gathered around him while he read the story.

Christmas Day, we went tom my Mimi and Papa's, in Broken Arrow. All my Uncles, Aunts, and cousins were there. We opened up presents and ate together. The kids went outside and played. It was a nice day. It was a Merry Christmas.

Childrens Inocents

The morning of Christmas Eve is a big one. The kids wake up early and are so excited, they know who is coming tonight. So for the rest of the day I will have to hear, "Is he almost here yet?" Too funny! Kids are so inocent, I wish they could stay that way for a while, but they grow up so fast. Everyone have a Merry Christmas Eve and a Merry & Safe Christmas. We love you all.

Finally becoming a "real" Blogger

After a half a day of being on the computer, trying to customize the layout and add music. I finally have it. Tomorow is Christmas Eve. The kids are so excited. I will finally have my husband back. Jimmy's hours at UPS will finally go back to normal. I haven't seen too much of him. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas!

Colton and the OU Heismen Winners

This month Colton and Jimmy had the opportunity to go and meet the 3 OU Heismen winners. Well pre-Sam Bradford. They were able to get their pictures taken with them and get several autographs. Colton got mini helmet signed, an OU football signed, and picture with them. Jimmy was able to get me a football autographed too. Jason White personally wrote a message to me and Jimmy took his picture with my ball. They had fun and it was a "cool experience" as Colton says.
