Happy Valentine

We saw more chilly weather in February. Thank goodness it was just cold with a little snow.

Landry wanted to show Elsa the snow. She said it would remind her of home.
 

Notice Elsa holding her hands out to catch the snow.

Reagan wasn't going to miss out on the action!

 The weather did warm up enough to be comfortable in long sleeves and pants.

 

Mischief.

 Happy Valentine's Day!

 

Why yes, that's the Frozen soundtrack and yes, we're still listening to it.

Reagan got a dancing Minnie Mouse so they could all dance to Let It Go. Good times!

Sweet girls.

Landry, once again, made us a cake.

 



Made with love.

Dallas Discovery Gardens: butterfly release

We enjoy getting out and about on the weekends. There isn't a shortage of things to do in the DFW area. For instance, if you want to go to a butterfly release you can. So, we did. All different types of butterflies were flying around.

 

 

The orange one this one is pretty.

 

 

 

Almost a monarch.

 

 

 

Landry wore a flower headband so the butterflies would come to her.

Reagan thought she needed a flower like her sister.

 

Daddy and his girls.

 

 

Future butterflies. Those front cocoons are pretty big.

 

 

 

 

This is what comes out of those big cocoons. It's as big as your hand!

 

January 2014

Dress up time...at least she looks warm!

Lovin' on Laylay

I'm so excited...and I just can't hide it.

Dad is being brave and letting Landry give him a shave.  Goodbye beard

Had to try a mean-stache and see how it looked.  Will probably need this again in about 10 years.

The more Reagan laughed, the higher she went.



Until it kind of made mom nervous

Daredevil for sure

Love me some nuggets and ketchup

College day at school and you know how her mama is going to dress her.

Reagan had so much fun running and jumping in this leaf pile.
Thanks for all your hard work mom, you don't mind do you?

Big sister had to get in on the action.

This looks comfy, I think I'll just take a nap here today.

I'm too cute to be in time out, right?

Can't catch me!!!!!

December 2013

December was more like Decembrrrrr. We were iced in for a total of almost a week. Landry loved missing school. Brad was even iced in from work. It was nice...at first. When day 4 of being stuck inside rolled around we all had a touch of cabin fever.

 

 

 

Just a little bit of ice.

Reagan was ready to go outside.

 

Look how the ice built up on even the small branches.

 

 

Landry said Elsa must have frozen this leaf because the ice was sticking out.

 

 

Out poor tree was completely bent over!

 

The roads were just safe enough for Landry to go to Peyton's 7th birthday.

 

Kennedi, Landry and Peyton. These 3 have been friends since they were 3 or 4 years old.

Everything that had melted was frozen solid again that night.

 

 

Snuggling and having some tech time.

Thankfully while we were out and about that day we got a Christmas tree!

 

 

The finishing touch.

 

 

The ice from the roof melted and refroze so we had a little more ice on the ground.

We were iced in for another day. The ice melted...again so off we went to Cabelas.

 

We saw Santa! Reagan didn't care much for the bearded fellow.

 Christmas Eve came (with no ice)! We went to church then came home to get ready for Jesus' birthday and Santa.

 

 

Matchy, matchy.

 

 

These two are definitely on the nice list.

Landry made our dessert for Christmas day.

 

 

Can we open just 1 present tonight, please? Just one?

 

 

Family picture just before bed.

Merry Christmas! Santa came!

 

 

Landry asked Santa for an easy bake oven and roller skates. She said "surprise me with the rest". So, he did.

 

Santa surprised Reagan with some toys too.

 

Landry was excited to test out her roller skates. She couldn't wait to skate to her friends house to deliver her present.

 

We were so happy to have Skip with us for Christmas! Christmas night we left for Mississippi to see family. It was a wonderful Christmas.
