Snow Day!!

We finally got a couple of snow days!!  The boys were super excited since we didn't even have any snow last year.  It was perfect snow to build a snowman.  In a hurried attempt, I just used food coloring to make a face on him, which was a good thing because he didn't last long.  I looked out and found the boys karate chopping/kicking him to pieces.  Poor Frosty. :-)

Razorback Baseball

My wonderful friend, Eileen, invited Modus to hang out with them in the Arvest suite at the Razorback baseball game a couple of weekends ago.  We had such a fun time and even got a special visitor to come to our suite.  The boys were pretty excited about that.  Thank you Eileen for a fun day!

Showing The Love-Valentine's Day

We had a wonderful little Valentine's Day.  Here's a low-down of our activities....

Collin wanted me to make a tank for his valentine's box at school.  It turned out super cute. :-)

Collin made a sweet Valentine for Josh and I at school......complete with zombies and ninjas. :-)  Love that boy!

He handed out "You Rock" pop rock valentine's at school

And a special Valentine for his teacher. :-)

For his class party, I decided to do a "Sweetheart Sundae" ice cream party.  The kids LOVED it!  They had all kinds of toppings at their table to build their ultimate sundaes and then topped them with chocolate syrup and whipped cream of course!  We then played bingo and they loved that too.  I also had made some little photo props of mustaches for the boys and red lips for the girls so we could take some fun class photos.  

We then headed over to see Aunt Courtney, Hudson & Hayes for the afternoon.  Aunt Courtney is always so great to watch Carter for me while I am hosting Collin's class parties.  Of course, Carter & Hudson had to have their pictures with the mustaches too.

That evening, I decided to have just a small, quiet, candlelight dinner at home with my 3 valentines.  We had chicken fettucine alfredo and a layered chocolate mousse/oreo dessert.  It was yummy!!!

Me with my Valentine's.  I love you 3 SO much!!!

Funny Friday!!

It's been a long while since I did a "Funny Friday" post.  I have a few this week, so here goes....

***

I overheard the boys talking one day in the playroom.  Collin says, "Carter, do you know what to do if a bad guy tries to take you?"  Carter sat silent for a few moments and then Collin says, "You kick him in the private and call 911!".  I guess all those ninja cartoons are rubbing off on them. :-)

I was laying in bed with Carter one morning and I said to him, "Carter, I just love to lay here and cuddle with you. "  His response...."I love to lay here and toot on you. "  Boys....

Today in the car, Carter says, "Mom, did you know that Mars is the red planet?".  I was a little shocked and said, "Wow Carter!  How did you know that?".  He said, "I just did.  My brain tells me things like that.".

Have a great weekend!

Happy 34th Birthday Josh!

Josh turned 34 on the 8th.  We celebrated the night before because Josh and I were invited to an out of town event for the weekend.  Josh's parents came over and we had a simple dinner and got Subway and then indulged in some cake.  The boys wanted to pick out their own gifts for Josh, so Carter ended up picking out Batman pajama pants (go figure) and Collin got dad a Star Wars shirt.  They were so proud. :-)

Happy Birthday to an amazing husband and even more amazing father.  We love you!
