Help! Help! We've been snowed in!

Yesterday we we're graced with a lovely snow fall.
The most we have had in a long time.
Depending on where you stand we have gotten anywhere from 6 to 10 inches.
Here is the van all snug in it's blanket of snow.

It was so windy while it was snowing that snow collected on the doorknob and deadbolt.

This is in the backyard. It has a weird ridge from the wind blowing the snow off of the roofs.

Here are some pictures of Becca in the snow.


Pene in the snow.


Sydney in the snow.

Look what we caught!

That's right! It's a Becca in a basket!
The other day we looked over and that is what we saw.
We have no idea how she got in there.
Here is another cute picture of her.

Happy Birthday Sydney!

Yesterday was Sydney's 6th birthday. She was so excited. I think she probably told everyone at school yesterday that it was her birthday. For her birthday she got to have lunch with David, then she gave out mini cupcakes to her class as a snack then came home and had dinner, presents and cake with Granny and Granddad. I think she had fun. So here are some pictures of the fun.
Here is her cake. Of course it had to be pink and purple.

The girls in their party hats.



Sydney and her cake.

Singing Happy Birthday and blowing out the candles.

Becca's Grandpa pose

David took this picture with the cell phone while at Wal-mart.
He didn't intend to get her with her tongue out.
Oh the funny things little kids do.

First "snow" of 2010

Tuesday Sydney came home from school and was telling us that Spencer (a 5th grader that helps walk her to her bus) t0ld her that to make it snow you need to "flush 6 ice cubes down the commode, turn your Pj's inside out, put them on backwards and put a spoon under your pillow". So last night Sydney wore her Pj's inside out and backwards with both of the girls with spoons under their pillows. This after flushing some ice. Pene wouldn't wear her Pj's that way, which was fine by me. Here is Syd in her inside out backwards Pj's.

Lucky for us they woke up to this today.
Unlucky for us they believe that what they did worked.

We are happy for the snow but are sad that it isn't even half of what they were forecasting.
Here are some pictures of the girls playing in the snow.
Becca seemed to like it until.. she got hit in the face with a snowball.
She fell over just as i was taking this picture.






Becca wanted me to take a close up.

We might go out and play again later.
Oh and here is Pene's new haircut. Totally cute.

The end of 2009

As the year comes to an end I am a little remiss as I forgot to take pictures of Becca's first Christmas. Totally bummed. Oh well on to other things.
The girls and I went to Mississippi on Christmas evening to visit my folks. The girls had great fun and loved visiting with the Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents and Cousins. I think Abby had fun painting the girls nails too.
Becca meeting Mom's dog Little Bit. She loved that dog, it was too cute.

Playing at Grandma's


Becca and T's youngest C , she was born a week before Becca. They just wanted to pull on each other and the next day Becca was taking her pacifier.

We couldn't get a good picture of the two of the together.

T's oldest S holding Becca

Poor little J wasn't feeling well so I told her to make a Grandpa face.
She was so sad.

The 2004 cousins Charlie, K and Sydney. Charlie didn't have his eyes open in any of the pictures I have and K is only taller than everyone else because she was standing on her tip toes.

The July 2006 Cousins. Pene, W and Andy. Do you know how hard it is to get a good picture of 3 three year olds? It's pretty tough.
Also Pene has a chapped face from wiping her nose with her sleeve.

Dad's stylin new foot wear! He has either a foot sprain or a stress fracture.
Not sure which just yet.

This picture is from yesterday, Sydney was holding Becca I went to the kitchen to do something and came back to this. Sleepy Baby.


Well I hope everyone had a good holiday season and best of wishes to you all in the new year.
