OU Sooners

Unfortunately, for me, the OU Sooners are very known in our household thanks to Kevin and just thought I'd say that this year, if they lose their bowl game today....it's not my fault! Haha! They're losing right now to Stanford in the Sun Bowl. Last year, well, this WHOLE past year, Kevin blamed me for the Sooners losing the National Title game after I turned off the lights to the OU Christmas tree we have before the game ended. This year he told me I can't turn the lights off....heck...I even turned the lights on for him and his team is still losing right now! So if they lose this game....I'm documenting that it's not my fault!

Jack's First Time in the Snow

Jack cracks me up when he looks outside and says, "Mommy....look at all the no!" Of course he's saying "snow" but it's so cute the way he says it. Well anyway, he got to walk through some snow this morning on our trip through the Walmart parking lot and he was fascinated with the stuff, so I decided that I need to let him out in the backyard to play in the 'no. So I bundled him up and then we went outside. He wasn't too sure about it at first since he kept falling down and couldn't get back up, but he figured out that he had to take tall steps and go slow and he'd stay on his feet! He loved it! The snow is pretty powdery so it didn't make good snow balls, b/c I wan't to make a snow man, but it just didn't pack very well. The only bad thing is that his mittens kept coming off. They're a little too big for him and on our way inside, he lost his shoe. We really need to get some snow boots for him!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

We've had a wonderful Christmas here in Leavenworth. It's been very relaxing and just nice. It was just the 3 of us, which I really missed being with our families, but this was just a nice quiet Christmas at home. We got 8 inches of snow last night and so we've been enjoying the "White Christmas!" Jack got lots of great presents and has been busy playing with his new toys all day! We had a big ham dinner and have been munching on fudge and cookies all day. Kevin took us out driving in the snow to go look at Christmas lights and that was very nice!

Our snow on the porch when I opened the back door this morning!

Need to Update this Blog!

I am very sorry that I've not updated this or anything for a few months! EEK! It's Christmas morning here and my boys are still sleeping....it's 9:30 am! I've been up for a little while now and am just waiting for Kevin and Jack to wake up so we can open presents! We took Jack with us last night to the catholic church because we had to play in a brass ensemble for midnight mass. Jack sat with us up in the balcony and he did very well! He was rocking out while we played "Go Tell it on the Mountain" and "Carol of the Bells." It was funny! I'm going to post a few pictures from this month and then I'm going to be better at keeping up this coming new year!
