HS Rollerskating

I finally got a chance to take Cameron's Christmas skates to the rink when I took the boys to the homeschool friday skate day.  Cameron went around the rink with me a few times, but preferred to roll on the carpet (which he did really well for a 1st time skater).  Carson is doing great on his rollerblades.  I actually have already bought him the next size from the thrift store for a couple of dollars.  I just love a deal!

Really?!

How is it that my husband and boys can completely destroy EVERY room in the house when I left everything clean only 2 hours ago?

Movie Night!

We hardly ever turn on the TV, but about 2 times a month we have a special movie night. The boys are very excited about movie night tonight. Carson is going to make muffins. The boys have informed me that we are watching Popular Mechanics for Kids (again).

The reason for it all...

6 year old Carson, "Mom, you have such a nice face. Everytime I look at you, it makes me feel so good inside." ♥♥Awwwwww♥♥

Neighborhood friends

We had some friends in the neighborhood that were home from school for 'snow day' come over for a few hours to play in the snow.  I made some hot chocolate and cookies.  The boys had so much fun!

Texas Snow

It is quite a year for snow in Texas!  Today, we enjoyed the southern snow by making a snow cannon out of pvc pipe and an air compressor (doesn't everybody do that?!). We also tried to repair the snowman that the boys and I made a couple of days ago.  The roads were sheets of ice, so we were able to enjoy some of this snow day with Mark until he went to work late morning.  I spent the rest of the day with the boys getting cold in the snow and coming in for warm herbal tea over and over again.  What a fun and special day ♥

RMS Titanic

The boys are facsinated with the Titanic and they have so much fun creating the ocean liner out of paper, wood, bristle blocks and just about anything they can get their hands on.  Today their Titanic creation was made of Cranium Mega Fort.  Captain Smith looks ready for launch - hope they have enough life boats

Superbowl Sunday XLIV

We took fabric markers to decorate our own football jerseys for Superbowl Sunday.  Carson decorated the back of his shirt with Manning.  I made ribs, salad and corn on the cob.  I also made a cute football cake made with coconut flour. I love the watching the season's final NFL games!

Slidey's Birthday

Carson really wanted to have a birthday party for his Webkinz horse, Slidey.  I came up with the idea to cut out paper cupcakes and decorate them with markers and glitter.  Of course, all of Slidey's animal friends were invited!

5 little monkey in my tub

We had 3 siblings spend the night and had so much fun playing!

A day of the arts

I took the boys to the Meyerson Symphony Center today. It was a great program they had prepared for the children to learn about the symphony. I was really impressed with the organ and facinated with what they had to go through just to get the pipes in the center! Wow.

While in downtown Dallas, I took the boys to the Museum of Art. I can't believe the self control 2 year old Cameron has! Sitting through the symphony and not touching or running at the museum. He's more mature than me! We walked throughout while Carson read about various pieces to us.

Bubbles the Dolphin

I finally broke down and bought myself a Webkinz so I can play online with Carson and design my own room. I bought a dolphin and named him Bubbles. I am just a little too excited for a woman my age!
