How Cute!

My camera doesnt like to take picutes of yarn. So the shades of colors are a little off. But i wanted to try my hand at "kitting in the round" Yeah there are some mistakes...okay more than a few mistakes but hey. I think it turned out cute. It is made for my friends newborn so it should fit well as long as i get it in the mail before she out grows it lol.


And on another note most of my family woke up to a frozen tundra this morning after enduring 30+ hours of ice they are kinda stuck.

These are a few pics i borrowed from http://www.ky3.com/younews?cid=71571&pg=1 ( sorry i dont know how to do cool links. But I feel for all of you and your cold weather and hope i passes soon. But it makes me wanna ask " WHY do I wanna move back to Mo. for the winter?" Well i hope you all stay safe and the ones with electric keep it and the ones without it get it turned on soon.

And again ... on another note. Happy Birthday to my lovely sister! I know your frozen in your boots at work. But just reimber we are thinking of you. Have a great WARM Birthday. Love ya Sis

SNOW!!!

Yeah...your not seeing things....that is really my house and it is really covered in SNOW!!! I am so excited to say it snowed. alot. The weather man said it was going to snow monday night and we would wake up to 3+ inches of snow. Me and Daniel went to bed so excited like little kids on christmas eve. You can only image how upset we was when we got up and NO snow. Then 9am pasted and still no snow. we kinda gave up and then sis comes running up saying LOOK OUTSIDE! ITS FINALLY WINTER! And sure enough....Snow! And more snow....And hours later....Still snowing. Well we was going to wait for the wind to stop blowing or for it to stop snowing before we went out. But like kids in a candy store we just couldnt resit.
Snow balls were thrown!
The art of sleading was mastered in various positions!

And even though there wasnt alot of snow we managed to make a snowman.

The kids loved making snow angels.

And now most of the snow is gone. The snow days are over. But it just makes us that much more excited to move back to Tn. So now all that is left is one sad lookin' snowman and lots of fun memories.
This week has been so much fun for us. Daniel even got to stay home most of the week which is awsome cause he NEVER gets random days off work. I hope everyone else had a great week also.

The Family Pics

These are the picture we had done at Christmas. And out of 5 pictures Abby is looking to the right in everyone.
I bought the Copyright release CD so i dont have all these on prints guys so Sisters you might have to save em' if you want em'. But I think they turned out pretty good. I will try to get some more pics up. I cant belive it has took this long to update so Sorry :(

Okay Okay.....I know I suck! Almost a month with no blog. Hmmm where do I start. Well we was able to go to Tenn. for Christmas!! It was one of the greatest Christmas' in a long time. The Kids enjoyed themselves and Boy did Santa ever come! I dont think in all my years combine have i ever got what they did. But presents aside... Abby had been singing "All I want for Christmas are my two front teeth" song for a week before christmas.... And Christmas Eve one of her front teeth started to come in! She was happy Santa gave her , her tooth back "Cause the tooth fariy was taking to long" Visiting with Family was so wonderful we so did not want to come home. it was So relaxing to just be "HOME" I think this Christmas could have only been better if Santa Delivered all my sisters for Christmas. We Got to play cards and BS with friends and Family. And even had an early New year Eve party---yeah---that was fun! And like always, everyone drank till I got drunk and they they sobered up to laugh at me :( Good Times.

Hmmmm. Happy New year everyone. I hope everyone had Great Holidays I know ours was unbeatable this year. Everyone is talking about resolutions. Well I learned a long time ago...If I write them down I lose them...If I dont lose them.... I didnt accoplish any of them.. But her they are for you that are curious.
