Connor is getting too big!!!

Well, it's official- my 4 year old can now ride a 2 wheel bike! He tried about 6 months ago and did pretty well but today he told Jon that he wanted to ride.... and he did! Sometimes it's so hard to believe that he is growing up so fast!!!

Our little Ballerina!

Meghan had her Christmas recital last Saturday night. She was a present for one of her dances and did a dance to Jingle Bells for the other. She had a really good time dancing and so far wants to continue. She gets to perform at Disney World in March and we are taking the whole family- I have never been and I think I'm more excited than the kids!!

Feliz Mommy Da~

At least that's how Connor interprets the song- listen for yourself:

Of course, Meghan couldn't stand it so she had to sing it right- so you actually get both versions!! And then there's Trevor- oh the joys of a Christmas carol from a 3rd grader!! Enjoy!!

Snow in Mississippi!

Well, we had snow today. Not in Clinton, however! I drove the kids about 50 miles south and let them play for a little while in the snow-- I did it on spur of the moment though so we definitely weren't dressed for it! They had a great time, though! Trevor and Meghan really liked throwing snowballs and Connor enjoyed stomping around in it. Kyle just enjoyed teasing his brothers and making them step through the icy puddles and thereby getting their shoes, pants, and legs all wet! They all liked throwing the snowballs at the car and seeing them explode on the windows! It didn't take long for them to get cold so we only played about 30 minutes but I sure smiled a lot just watching them!!

Once they all got inside the car we took off ALL the wet clothes and shoes- Connor was a little upset that he had to ride home in his underwear but he was wet up to his knees!! It was really a great day!

Ready for the Holidays

Well we got the tree up and the outside of the house decorated- we are just full of Holiday cheer!.... of course, I have yet to buy presents and am a little stressed about that -- but welcome to the Holidays, right?!?We have been busy around here. We went to my parents house in South Carolina for Thanksgiving and had a great time. My cousins were there whom I haven't seen in a couple of years so I really enjoyed that!

The kids are ready for Christmas break and so am I! The next couple of weeks will be hectic! Meghan has her Christmas show next weekend, Trevor has Boys Scouts and karate with parties for both, and Connor has his school party and gift exchange. Kyle is doing well- unsure whether he is going to California for Christmas but we will love having him here if he doesn't!
