Horton and a new tractor...

Last week was Dr. Suess week at the big kids school, and Chris had to join in on the fun on Friday evening...gotta love some Horton!

 

So, if you know my husband you know he is a country guy!  He loves to work/play outside, and he definitely loves to have a need to use a tractor.  He had typically borrowed my uncles tractor, but him and my dad have been talking about getting one together for a couple of weeks.  So, Saturday after Carter's basketball game they decided to head down to Tontitown where this guy is now working....

Yep, your eyes do not deceive you, that is my cousin Lance.  And he works at the John Deere tractor place and sold my dad and Chris a tractor.  Doesn't that just seem crazy!  I love the look of Lance at the computer, but must admit, it was crazy when Chris sent me the picture.  I also love the fact that now Chris and my dad own a tractor together!  They are both going to get so much use out of it, especially now that we have 15 acres to control!!!!

Special morning stories...

Look at the girls and their focus on Papa Webb....

I love that my dad comes up to the house 3 days a week, and takes the big kids to school.  First of all, it saves me and Chris on time, but the best part is the kids LOVE getting to see and ride with their Papa.  Although Molly doesn't get to ride with him, she ALWAYS greets him with a screaming Papa as soon as he walks in the door.  It melts my heart to see their excitement for my dad, and how they cherish this time with him.

 

He takes advantage of these mornings to tell them stories while they eat breakfast, and on the way to school.  And as of right now they are not scary stories...but just wait until they get old.  And you all wonder where I got it.  Ha!!!

#WTA...

Last week was Women Tell All night on The Bachelor.  Every Monday there are a group of girls that come to my house to hang out, eat food, and of course watch some Bachelor.  It is always such a good time with these ladies.  There are about 8 or 9 of us that get together, and we ALWAYS have a great time.

 

Last week after we were done watching WTA, we decided to take some pictures that Jennifer and I could post to Instagram...and lets be honest it was 11:30 PM at this point, so we were a little delirious...

 

Me, Crissy, Danielle, Lauren and Jennifer...

Silly...

Thanks to these awesome ladies, who always make me excited for Monday nights to get here. 

 

Love you all!

Another day of SNOW fun...

We again this past Sunday got a dose of Thunder/Sleet/Snow, yes you saw that right, thunder & sleet at the same time.  It was the craziest thing, I am not sure I have ever hear or seen it before.  I don't know about you all but I am DONE with all this crazy winter weather, and apparently we can't make up our mind if we want to be Spring or not.  I mean the day before the the Thunder/Sleet it was 65 degrees...seriously...DONE!

 

With the weather it called for a couple more SNOW days for the kids.  I got to stay home with them on Monday, and then Tuesday I had some of their favorite people come over and play...Nick and Halle.  I am pretty sure they all peed their pants when they walked in that morning, they were so excited!   I love that they love their cousins so much and vice versa...I have some amazing memories with my cousins growing up and even today!

 

After hanging out inside, they begged Halle and Nick to take them outside, and they had the best time!  Halle sent me these pics, I secretly think Nick and Halle had a blast too!

 I LOVE this pic of Bailey, and of course the photography from Halle, such a good pic!

As cute as these pics are, I am ready for the Spring weather to get here and STAY!!!!

Wacky Wednesday...

This little girl had Wacky Wednesday today in honor of Dr. Seuss week at school.  Too bad they have had to miss 2 of the crazy days because of the SNOW/ICE!!!  She was so excited to be able to dress all wacky!  I can tell you one thing, this girl is going to love her some spirit weeks when she gets older.

Fruit Loops...

I love that Brooke does little crafts with our 2 little ones, and I am sure today, both Molly and Colt loved the craft...I mean who doesn't love fruit loops, and better yet bracelets that you can eat?  I am craving one right now!!!  :)  And if you know me at all you know I am not lying about that one...I LOVE CEREAL!

 

 I just think these 2 have the best time together, even when one is being rotten to the other one.

Thanks Brooke for sharing these daily activities with me!

Surprise visit from MeMe...

On Wednesday night, I was heading to our final basketball game and had a little time to kill.  So, considering our game was in Lincoln I decided to stop in for a surprise visit and see some of my favorite little man and my best friend.  I think I pulled off the surprise, and the look on Candy's face when she opened the door was worth it all.  I wish that I was down that way more often to do it more, but my crazy life is just that crazy!

 

I had such a good time, even though short, hanging out with them for the time that I did. 

 

Thanks to the Johnsons for allowing me to crash their dinner time and play for a bit!

 

Love these boys...
