Valentine's

Isn't valentines day supposed to be a day of love? It must be a boy thing, they were not feeling the love.



We spent the evening decorating sugar cookies with the boys. Riley was sick and so was Blaze. Riley really wasn't into cookies that night.



Poor guy, I think he really wanted to crawl back into bed. I think I was the only one who ate the sugar cookies, I ended up throwing away a ton of cookies.



Jacob was my only one who was in a smiling mood, kind of. I still have his cookies sitting on my counter top. I don't know if they are just getting to big to do this, and should I just stop? I guess one day when I have grandchildren I'll look forward to decorating sugar cookies again.

Snow in Texas



So the last two weeks we had snow move in. Which is pretty and the kids love to play in it. The only down fall is that in Texas the schools close down and any driving becomes a challenge.we don't get much snow, so our roads get icy and becomes very dangerous. Lucky for me I went to the grocery store the night before the snow came in. I did a lot of baking. Soups, homemade rolls, and baked goods. I think I gain some extra weight, because being stuck indoors I couldn't go out running. The kids were out of school a total of 5 days. I would say lucky, but I was more then ready to have them back in school learning. They actually wanted to go back to school. I did enjoy sleeping in in the morning and cooking breakfast for everyone.I was also thankful it didn't last longer, I don't know what I would do. I enjoy getting out and doing things. Being a stay at home Mom and watching kids I so need to get out in the evenings.
