SNOW DAY!!!!!

We had a SNOW DAY!!!!
Actually, we've had several.
But.... this time, there was enough
snow to really play in!
Brilyn loves getting a 
SNOW DAY
with DADDY!
Don't they look like they're having
fun? It's bitter cold out there
so I took pictures from the window.
That Brilyn is one tough kid.
The cold doesn't bother
her much at all.

We've Been Enjoying A Cold Winter

 It's been a cold snowy winter!
 We don't get a lot of snow in Oklahoma,
so this has been an interesting change.
It's BEAUTIFUL!!!!
 
And, I've enjoyed it.
I love the way a snowfall comes
in the night and forces 
us to slow down. Days normally
spent working get to be spent
at play. Normal life takes a back
seat and we see beauty all around us.
Don't you just love 
looking out at the snow?

Pretty Little Valentines


I made these pretty little Valentine's Day
templates for accordion mini albums
of Grace and Olivia.
 I went with the Photo Booth theme
because silly pictures are much easier
to capture and I needed 10 pictures.
They are so, so sweet!
I've made a similar book using
pictures of Brilyn and Asher and
it should be arriving any day.
What sweet little Valentines!

Our Little Cowboy

Some boys seem to be
born with their boots on!
They're 100% Cowboy!
And, I think our Weston might 
just be one of them.
Here he is in his Daddy's saddle
with a row of boots just waiting
to be filled.
His boots, Daddy's boots 
and Momma's boots, too.
Isn't he the cutest little cowboy, ever?

Our Happy Boy!

This little guy is almost always HAPPY!
He's snuggly and sweet and loves
to be cuddled and loved on!
He's recently made friends with 
his little feet. He just loves playing
with them. So, I, of course
had to take a picture.
  
Isn't that just the cutest little thing?
Pure innocence!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BILLY!

Today is Billy's Birthday!
Billy is my middle son.
He's the tough guy in the family.
He's brave and daring and full 
of adventure!
 He's was always the kid who
kept me on my toes.
He was into EVERYTHING!
And he's recently became
a father!
 
I wonder if little Weston
will be as adventurous as his Daddy?
In some ways, I hope so...
Because... Billy was always FUN!
Our house was never boring
when he was a kid.
But, then again.... Billy was
a handful. So, in some ways
I hope Weston is a bit more calm.
Because a calmer child would
be much easier to raise!
AND he'd be much safer!
But then, safety might be over rated.
After all, Billy's tried every
daring stunt he's had the opportunity
to try and he's still alive.
That in itself is reason to
give glory to God!
He's protected this young man!
And He'll protect Weston, too!
No matter how adventurous he turns
out to be. 
God really is GOOD!
Happy Birthday, Billy!

How To Make A Little Guy HAPPY!


Five Months Old
is a TOUGH age!
Brains are active, but bodies
just can't keep up.
It's frustrating to see something 
across the room and not be
able to get it. 
And when you try to tell someone
with a fuss or a cry,
they just don't seem to understand!
I so feel for babies at this age.
It has to be hard.
But, one thing they can do is
SPLASH!
 
And after Asher has SPLASHED
until the waters turned cold,
he smells so sweet and is so cuddly,
he likes to snuggle!
Bath time is the best for 
entertaining a baby!
