SNOW DAY!!

It snowed here in Tallassee!! We have had so much fun. Michael was off today, he's supposed to be off every Friday, but usually he has to go in anyway. School was cancelled so Dalt and I were off too!! And of course we kept little Dyl pickle here too! Dylan was so confused. He kept asking "are we going to school? Is it raining?" He has seen snow before, but he just didn't remember. Dalton was just purely excited. Dylan doesn't like the cold so much so he wanted to stay inside and watch Lightning McQueen. Dalton and Michael rode the 4-wheeler like mad men. We ate waffles this morning with Mama and Daddy then came home to Michael and Dalton and a big fire in the fire pit outside. So much fun!! Now we're in and watching Monster's Inc. The boys have had their baths and they're all cozied up to the fire watching a movie. It's been a perfect day. I hope tomorrow we can play in the snow a bit more. Hug your families tight!!

Urgent

Please pray for the Jansen family. My friend Matt was killed in a hunting accident this morning. He leaves behind a sweet wife Whitney and a beautiful 2 month old daughter Avery. Please keep them and his parents and brothers in your prayers.

Snaggle Tooth Dalton

Dalton let me pull his tooth tonight!! Yay! We were going in the morning to have the dentist extract it. I told him that I would get the money that the tooth fairy brought to pay for the dentist. At first he said okay then he decided he wanted the dentist to pull it AND the money. So with much cohersion from Michael and myself he let us pull it. It just came right out and now he gets the money from the tooth fairy!! I'm so happy for him, our baby is growing up.

Birthday Party

Because their birthdays are so close together and they are so close to Christmas, we celebrate them with a shared party. And this year, same as last, we celebrated with friends and family at Pump It Up!! We, young and old, had tons of fun. My friend Diane takes the prize on fastest in the obstacle course, she and Leigh Ann are pretty speedy. Uncle Mark is the fastest of everyone though, not sure how he gets through there so fast!!! He was in and out in about 2 seconds. This year though I beat my sweet husband. That's a first EVER, he always wins, however this year his broken toe aided me in my win! Thank you all for coming and helping make their day so great! Here are some pics of the family.
