Grandma Ann's Birthday

Last Saturday was Grandma Ann's birthday party. We had a spaghetti lunch then Mom reserved the pool at the hotel for a couple of hours and the kids had a blast.

Joy.

Like father...

Like son.

Last man standing.

Sleep pile

The last two nights during the wee hours of the morning our bed has become crowded with kids and a kitty. Although it's close quarters,  I cherish it, knowing that they are this size and age for such a short time.

Beautiful weekend

The weather this weekend was beautiful after a bitter cold week or so. Yesterday tanner and the boys came over for lunch at mom and dad's and to spend the day. We took the kids to the park in the afternoon.  Grandma Ann held lane and Truman' s hands as they walked to the park.

New Year

Yesterday afternoon we went down to the Petty Ranch to spend the evening for New Years Eve. We left around 9:30pm, the kids fell asleep before we got to the highway. I barely stayed awake until midnight.

 Today we spent the day at Mom and Dads. Lane has been sick, so he and Jill stayed at home. It was a fun day with the cousins.

 Jill made pieces for gingerbread houses and sent them with Tanner for the kids to decorate. They had blast and ate a ton of candy.

More Christmas

Last Saturday Marie and Creita came out to spend the day and have Christmas. It was a wonderful warm day, about 50 degrees. We played out in the melting snow.

Buddies

Marley and Simon have become friends. They like to play together. Simon is also fond of attacking a white stuffed kitty of Amelia' s. Last night we were watching the kstate Bowl game and he was trying to catch the players on the TV.
