Snow Day

Happy SuperBowl Sunday! We got quite another snow storm today & anticipate more tomorrow. The kids sure are enjoying all of the winter fun but we're sick and tired of shoveling (not to mention driving through) all the white stuff! Here's some new pics. For those of you in warmer places, I'm still wishing I was there with you (despite all the cute pictures of my kids!)!!

The new snowman at our house. Samantha started rolling the body while Travis was shoveling the driveway this morning. Once the driveway was clear she got some help from her dad & brother in finishing the project.


The ever growing man-made snow pile next to our front door. I think it's actually taller than both Travis & I now!


Travis' Aunt Lori & Uncle Brad & their kids + one other cousin (Bailey) came up for the annual SuperBowl party. The boys were quite the babysitters when it came to Samantha. Besides going ice skating they played outside in the snow almost all day Sunday. In Travis' parents' backyard they dug this tunnel. It goes the entire distance of the snow pile. Samantha thought it was great!


You can see Samantha down at one end & the other end is to the far right.


16 weeks & still counting! We go to the dr. on Feb. 13th & will get to schedule our ultra sound after that appointment.


Hope you have a great week!

My Little Stamper

Happy February!

Well, it seems we're starting February off with a bang this year. Yesterday it started to snow at about 3 pm and then when our power went out at 10:30 pm, Travis decided that would be the oportune time to go out & shovel the 4-5 inches off the driveway in order to make things easier for him in the morning (it was still snowing mind you). This morning there was another 2 inches on the ground but he only had time to scrape his side of the driveway. Since my car is such a low rider, I didn't get to leave the house today because I knew I'd get stuck between the driveway & the street. At about 5 I started to wonder when Travis would be getting home & if he was planning to shovel the rest of the driveway (and from the driveway to the street). What would you know, I look out the window and there he is. It seems we now require heavy machinery to move snow. Our snow piles are too high to get the snow shovel up over the top of!


Here's looking at my neighbor's house from my front porch:

Here's the snow removal crew:


It's times like these that I wish I lived further south!! Hope you aren't running out of places to put your snow!

Brad Paisly Concert

Last night we got to go to the Energy Solutions arena and see the Chuck Wicks (Stealin' Cinderella), Rodney Atkins (Watchin' You, If You're Goin' Through Hell), & Brad Paisly concert. We had a ton of fun. We didn't even get home until 1:00 this morning. We went with some of our friends which made it a nice night out for us. The kids stayed with Trav's mom and dad and I picked them up this morning so it was a bit quieter at home this morning for a change!

Nash is doing SO much better. He was improving within 24 hours after getting his first dose of Zythromax. Now you'd never know how sick he was! We are just glad to have our happy little boy back. Thanks for all your help & prayers for him, we really appreciate it.
