Snow!

Here is a picture taken 1 hour after my previous post pics. By the end of the day, the walkways/driveway/patios were all covered too. I think everyone and their dog made a snow man, except us (the strep trio). However, I did manage to throw a snowball or two at Trey and Paige and they thought it was hilarious!! And Trey creamed me between the inside of my hood and my cheek. Nice shot! Sorry I don't have more to share! It all melted away today.

Miscellaneous

We finally bought some barstools to go at our kitchen counter. The kids think they are fun to sit at. When I sit there, it makes me want to order a gin & tonic, but the bartender never shows up.

Trey and Paige had a little sleep over last Friday night in Trey's room, however, I don't think there was much sleeping going on.

And finally....SNOW! It started at 6 a.m. and it is supposed to snow ALL day long!! It is just beautiful and I can't get over the size of the flakes! Either my memory has been totally erased of snow from when I grew up in the Northeast, or the saying really does apply "everything's bigger in Texas"! It has been an hour since I took these pics and the grass is now completely covered/white - I will be sure to get a pic at the end of the day to post.

Poor Paigey

Not feeling so good yesterday with a fever and congestion and then major ear pain in the evening so off to the doctor we go today!

And the diagnosis is....Strep! Geesh, I hate this terrible, nasty, evil, miserable, horrible, no good bacteria! Thank God for antibiotics.

And just too cute to not take a picture of my picky eater-

13.1 (and more)

I am so proud of my husband. Dominique finished 1:56:39 at the 3M 1/2 Marathon this morning. (For anyone unfamiliar with a 1/2 marathon, it is 13.18 miles.) He made it look so easy! The kids and Grandma Mary and I almost missed him running by, but fortunately I spotted him. It was a super windy day which postponed the start of the race by an hour, however, the kids did great waiting at the finish line. Afterwards we went to the Flip Happy Crepe and had yummy crepes. My friend Leigh, who also ran the marathon, met us there with her family which made it even more fun. Here is a picture at home of my guy with his medal.

The kids are having a blast with Grandma Mary and will be so sad to see her go home tomorrow. Here they are having a little fun with decorating....

How about a closer look...

Have a super day!

Hello Duck Friends

It was a beautiful afternoon yesterday so we headed to the duck pond in San Gabriel Park here in Gtown. Boy those ducks were hungry!
