December Activities thru Dec 14th

Here is an old picture I found on Corey's phone but this girl was serious about laser tag at Frankies Fun Park!

We woke up to a surprise snow last Sunday and it was just the kind of day we needed! 
The kids bundled up and headed out early! 
Making a snowman and a snowwall 
It was cold but the kids didn't care! 
With their snowman 
Ella being silly - I sure do love this girl! 
With the best Santa and Mrs Claus at Peace

Our road - we didn't expect much but it was a nice surprise! 
Snow angel 
Snow angel #2 - he looks sooo tall! 
Ready to play - I was watching from the window
Caleb running in the snow 
Corey got out and played with them - I just came out to snap pictures! 
The trees by our house - so pretty! 
Of course they wanted to go 4 wheel riding 
They headed out and I bundled back up!  It was too cold for me! 
Ready to go - they had SO much fun! 
Josh and Kelly asked us to meet them for lunch and it worked out great to get out of the house for a little while - we ate at Martys and it was good! 
Carter was my buddy! 
He was also Ella's buddy too!  She loves having a baby on her hip and Carter lets her carry him around! 
Sweet friends 
Korie came over and played all afternoon and then we headed back to the Hutchens for chicken and rice for dinner and it was good! 
The kids were out of school on Monday and did some science experiments 
Owen stayed with us since school was out and we enjoyed having him!
He sure does love his cousins and he was a big help to me with Oreo! 
Watching cartoons 
Ella was worn out and stayed snuggled up a lot that Monday 
Chillin 
We got out for lunch - Burger King for Owen and Taco Bell for my crew.  We just did drive thrus and came right back to eat.  


Looking rough but real life these days on chemo!  I wear a shower cap a lot to keep my hair out of stuff especially while I am cooking.
