In the meadow we can build a SNOWMAN.....

.....or should I say...SNOW WOMAN : ) Considering she is wearing my hat and my scarf!












I should probally also mention that I do realize that my child has no gloves on his hands. However, there are two things Logan does not like.... #1 Gloves and #2 Socks. Yes...Logan did have socks on when he was out in the snow. I am able to keep them on him when he has shoes on. However, the socks do not stay on long when he is in the house. He pulls them off as soon as I put them on. I should also mention that it was not that cold outside today when we made our snowman. Note: I am not wearing a jacket. I actually started sweating. : ) We also were not outside very long either.

Just thought I should set the record straight. : )

Anyway. We had fun today but we missed daddy while he was at work. Logan actually watched me build our Snow Woman from the sunroom. This is the first Snowman Logan has ever seen. I think he could had cared less about it. haha

I have more Christmas pictures to post! I will have them up soon.

Winter Blast

Stuck in Mommom's driveway.
Streets in Chincoteague, VA.




Causeway was rough.



NASA


I used to go rollerskating here as a little girl...The Dream.

Bad day for this truck driver!
The snow was blowing so hard we couldn't see the road.
We were loaded down and in the car for 4 hours...only should had taken about 2!
Never been happier to get home!

There are MANY more pictures to come from Christmas. Imagine that. : ) Most of the pictures from Jack's side of the family is on my new camera. I have to figure out how to set it up to my computer then I will post those pictures.

Home Sweet Home!

We are back! I just wanted to say hey to everyone. We had a nice time home for the holidays but we are glad to have made it back to our house. On Christmas day around 7 pm..Logan got sick! He threw up so much! My poor little boy was VERY ill. Jack got sick a few hours after Logan. My mom was sick, my niece, brother-in-law, my dad, and Logan's Poppop Dill. It was a time!

I am happy to say that everyone is doing better. Dill is the only one who is still not doing so well. I am praying I do not get sick or anyone else.

I was so excited to have a White Christmas this year. However...it kept snowing and snowing where we were. We knew we were either going to get snowed in or we would have to travel in it to get back home. This morning we decided to be like the other nuts out there and travel through the winter blast. What would normally take about 2 hours to get home from the shore took 4 hours! The roads were aweful and at some points we could not even see the road due to the snow blowing all over the place. There were cars and trucks in the ditches. I think I lost count at 12. Scary stuff!

We made it home and I have never been happier.

But now I have so much unpacking to do! It seems like you basically have to pack up your entire house and fit it in your truck when you have a toddler. : ) As soon as I get everything straight I will share some pictures with you from our Christmas.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! Can 2011 really be around the corner? I can not believe it!

P.S. I somehow managed to lose my cell phone today. I am thinking I dropped it in the snow in Chincoteague. Just my luck. I hope to have a new cell phone up and running in the next few days. I think I just need to glue a cell phone to my hand or something. I lose so many! Bear with me...

Merry Christmas!

Santa making his grand appearance at the mall! hehehe...or should I say...ho ho ho : )
  Jack and I went out amongst the crowds and went Christmas shopping today. We both really get into the Christmas season. We are really two big kids at heart. We are super excited to see Logan do his thing Christmas morning. Honestly..he probally will love the wrapping paper and boxes more than the actual gift. Oh well..it will be tons of fun anyway! We also took Logan to see Santa today at the mall. This is one of our traditions we started with Logan last year. I really thought he was going to freak out but he was really cool about the entire Santa thing. I can not believe that I did not have to get in the picture with him today. The picture posted above is not the clearest....sorry! I took a picture of the picture we bought today so I could share it with you. Maybe we should invest in a scanner? I sent this picture to my sister via cell phone. She texted me back with a picture of her kiddos on Santa's lap. They also had theirs done today too in MD! Plus...both of us had the pictures taken at around the same time. Great minds think alike!

We are heading to the Eastern Shore in a few days so things are pretty busy around here. However, I could not leave without saying Merry Christmas to all my friends! I will catch up with all my bloggy buddies after the holidays. I hope everyone enjoys celebrating with their friends and familes. I LOVE my family's traditions and everything that goes along with Christmas. I will share many pictures from our Christmas vacation soon! Logan's two aunts and I are planning a photography session with our three babies! I really do hope the pictures come out cute. Even if we get ONE really good one. It is going to be difficult but I am going to try my bestest! I am going to try to get some pictures of my sister's kiddos and Logan together too! I am so excited for all that is in store for next week!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!


Blessings to you and yours.

snow day!




NO, Tobey!

It sure is a winter wonderland outside! We have a beautiful blanket of snow covering our neighborhood! LOVE it! We stayed toasty warm inside today. Logan got to enjoy the view of the snow from the house. He still has a runny nose and a cough. Jack was off from work today! They closed the base due to the snow. So lucky me got to spend the entire day with my two favorite guys! : ) Today there were lots of cuddling, blankets, and hot chocolate. We....(well mostly Jack) hehe...cooked our Christmas dinner tonight. We are going to the Eastern Shore for Christmas this year. So this was the best night for our little trio to celebrate together. What a nice day!
