No school... must play

Of course school was canceled today..... So what did we do..... We played all day:) The boys had so much fun outside with the ice/snow and it was really hard to get them to come inside.

Josh was picking the icicles off the tree and pretending that they were popsicles. GROSS!!!

Okay now I know this picture looks like Elijah was upset but he really wasn't. I'm not sure what he was saying.

A few of my favorite things....

So I was tagged... I picked a few of my favorite things. I have a bunch of favorite things but these are just a few....

One of my most favorite things is letters that I have saved from my hubby when we were in high school and when he was in the air force. It's nice to go back and read them every now and then... I have tons of letters:)




My second fav is a tea set that was given to me by my mother. It was given to her by my grandmother. I'm sure I will pass it on to a daughter (if I ever have one) or a daughter-in-law

My MAC makeup... It's a must!
Be Delicious by DKNY and Princess by Vera Wang

Smells good:)
I love these!!!

Back to reality.....

Well we are back from our trip. If you didn't know we were in Houston this week. We left on Wednesday and got back today, which is Monday. I know that I should be doing other things that are probably more important like laundry and stuff, but I just don't feel like it so instead I'm blogging. We had a fun time and like always I wasn't ready to come back. I love being around my family. Who doesn't??? I didn't really take a lot of pictures this time. So here are only a few....

Everyday my dad would take the boys on a ride:)

It's here...

His report card that is.... I picked Josh up from school today and he had a BIG smile on his face:) He said he made straight A's and that he was going to get to eat donuts with the principal. I'm very proud of this little boy. And of course why not reward him for doing good in school right???

His dad took him to game stop and bought him a brain quest game for the DS. I like these games. They actually teach the kids things about science, math, English, and history. Pretty awesome if you ask me.


And of course I couldn't leave my little munchkin out. He was pretending to be a star wars clone trooper:)

Mighty To Save

Well I heard this song today at church and immediately I thought of Elijah because it is his favorite song. I got a little video of him singing it the other day while he was listening to his mp3 player. Oh and I hope you enjoyed the drummer this morning because it is more than likely his last Sunday playing. His schedule is changing for the new year and so now he will be off Tue/Wed instead of Sun/Mon. I'm kinda bummed too but hey what can you do right! Well hope you like the video:)
