Beautiful Roses and Charley

One day I came home from school and i wanted to take a few pictures of Charley with these pretty roses mom had. I thought they looked so cute with her outfit. She is such a beautiful girl.

Sledding on the Grass

So as you can tell this was a long time ago, now we can sled in the SNOW!!! Anyway, the kids always have a lot of fun letting us pull them around on the grass. Emmie was a little confused! :) Charley had a lot of fun on the sled as well.





































Here is a little video of Charley on the sled.

Olympic Cookies

Me and my friend Mechale Maxwell spent at least 1 1/2 to 2 hours on these cookies. Well we actually made 21 but it was a lot of fun. I just had to take a picture! Yah Olympics!

KANGAROO ZOO

We went to kangaroo zoo (a fun place that ray and john introduced us to) with the whole family well except scot, mitch, sam, dad, and jon f. but it was a lot of fun. It was even more fun just to have the Texans here. We love you guys! Thanks for visiting! I at least had a blast with the kids and spen and diana!
