Snow in Louisiana??

Well, I didn't believe it when the news called for snow...I never do down here, but everyone goes crazy and calls school off and shuts everything down hoping the news crews are correct. This time they were...evidently it hasn't snowed like this in 9 years!! Adam got out of school early yesterday and they called it off for today and he was so excited!! Adam was the first out in the snow this morning, he was so excited!

I was shocked how much snow came! When it first started yesterday it wasn't sticking at all, but as the night wore on it stuck more and more!

Here is Eden's bike...

The snow was perfect for snowballs and rolling a snowman. It packed great and it was lots of fun to throw!!!

Jude enjoyed throwing the snow while Daddy and Adam made the snowman!
I'm not sure how many snow angels Krimson actually made, but she had lots of fun doing that. She also got into the snowball throwing as well!!
This was the first snowman that ended up falling over, but Marc recovered nicely...
Eden enjoyed eating the snow and walking in the mud from the melted snow...and of coarse wearing the necklaces the whole time!


The final product!! Notice Marc and Adam (the two creators) are the only ones looking and who were happy...just had to get a family photo...oh well! Happy Snow Days to you Louisiana!! It only comes around every 9 years!!

Go Saints!!

Here's to our #1 Saints fan!! Adam used his Christmas money to get his first Saints jersey!! I can't tell you how excited he was to finally get it. The stores here have been out and we have gone every day to look. Today we finally found one and he couldn't wait to get it on!! He wanted to get pictures from all angles with both shirts on...Jersey and Championship Shirt!!

GO NEW ORLEANS SAINTS!!! 2010 Super Bowl Champions!!!!!

Rolling at the Jungle Gym

The slogan at the Jungle Gym is "Where Kids Can Go Wild"...and mine do!!!

Fun Weekend!

After the girls and I spent the day at the Jungle Gym this past Wednesday I decided to take the kids on Friday!! With all the rain lately I just set up camp and let them play till they couldn't any more. The 3 younger ones played from 10:30-2:30 and then after we got Adam from school and game Eden a nap we went back from 5:30-7:00. What a Day! Here's Jude climbing up above us in the tunnels!

Here is Edan pointing at Jude up above us! She liked to sit in the rides that needed quarters...it's still fun for her without the quarters!!
Jude and Krimson had fun here for a while. Eden kept thinking she wanted to climb up, but turned around every time...maybe next time!!
Jude trying to help Eden drive...she wasn't having any of it. Notice the necklaces Eden had on...she wore them the whole day!!
Grandma and Papa came for the weekend. Here we are at the boys basketball games Saturday morning!! Krimson was enjoying a blue sucker, Eden with her wipe, and the boys were victorious in both of their games!!
The 3 older kids stayed in the hotel with Gma and Papa, but Eden came home with Mommy and Daddy, so she had fun playing in the hotel room for a while before we had to go. Here she is pretending that she was sleeping!!
Everyone had fun swimming in the warm pool and hot tub!! Eden's face doesn't look like she had fun, but don't let it fool you...she is almost 2!!
Jude jumping after the ring Daddy just threw...
Adam about to make the snag...
Marc trying to make since of jumping in after the ring to Krimson...it would be easier to just hand it to her!?



Krimson being "Santa Girl" in the hot tub!
Eden enjoyed just walking around, but Marc got her in the pool for a while and she had lots of fun getting use to the pool again.


Well, Marc and I were cheering for the Colts in the Super Bowl, but living in Louisiana has influenced our kids. Adam was pulling for the Saints hard and was very happy with the victory Sunday night! Marc is still confused, as a father, how this could have happened, but I think there are worse teams he could love. He may get his first Saints jersey...we'll see...Jude on the other hand told us that he was cheering for whoever was winning! At least he's honest about being a bandwagon fan, and he was in a great mood all night. The boys were excited about the football cake here and had fun with their friend Landon over for the game!!

The Girls at the Jungle Gym

Here are the girls ready for Church this Sunday...surprisingly they both wore their hats all day. They were so cute!!

Krimson's WEE school class went to the Jungle Gym Wednesday and the girls wore themselves out!! Eden was a sleep in the car before we even made it home!
Eden Beth Jumping/getting closer to the camera!
Most of their time was spent in the balls!! They were so cute playing together!!



Here they come through the tunnel!! Eden wasn't too sure of it, but Krimson kept her going!
...and they made it!
Eden and Krimson both wanted money for the rides, but were satisfied with just pretending!!

Eden got this horse a rockin'
Krimson with Mrs. Carrie's 3 year old WEE School Class...it's always a challenge to get this many kids to want to take a picture...kudos to Mrs. Carrie!!
