Snow, Snow, Snow

We got about four inches of snow last night!! The younger kids lasted a few hours with playing and helping with the igloo. Zack, Landon, and Mia were devoted to getting the igloo done. After many hours of working they were finally finished.

We are enjoying our snow day and already know we get another day off tomorrow!! YIPEE!!

Iron Knights Tournament

We headed to Clarksville this weekend for a wrestling tournament. We took Trevin with us. Zack and the boys left at 5:00am to get there in time for weigh-ins. Dad and I followed to get there for wrestling.

All three boys ended up with two medals for the day!!

Landon wrestled in his age group and got 1st. He teched or pinned each of his guys. He wrestled up an age group and got 2nd. He wrestled awesome!!

Logan wrestled in his age group and got 3rd. He wrestled up an age group and got 4th.

Trevin wrestled in his age group and got 3rd. He wrestled up an age group and got 1st. This little guy can wrestle!!

It was a very long day, but I love watching these boys wrestle!!!

Bibs

I love these bibs!!

Sunbeams

Piper and Cy are now Sunbeams!! They are so excited to be in Primary with Landon, Mia, and Logan. They have the most fabulous teacher so the adjustment has been easy! I just can't believe how big they are getting.

Happy New Year

Nothing better than spending a day playing Just Dance 2 and Mario Kart.

I should have known she was up to something when there wasn't any crying. She was happy for a brief moment so I didn't even care. Cereal bag dumped on floor, oatmeal packets opened and dumped out, and grits packets opened and dumped out. One big mess worth one minute of happiness from my cranky little girl!!

Then it was show time!!!

Logan was the drummer.

Landon jumped in on guitar.

Cy just being crazy!

Piper relaxing on Daddy's back.

And I even got a smile from Adaleigh

We had to take time for Wrestling Drills.

Then it was a must that everyone eat atleast one blackeye pea. This was an easy task for everyone but Cy. Everyone else had bowls full. Poor Cy struggled getting one down. He really wanted Sparkling Grape Juice, so we used that to get him to eat it. He is giving it his all to keep it in.

Really trying to chew

I think he swallowed it but is trying not to throw it back up.

"But Mom, I loved it!"

Despite the few who are sick we had a great start to a New Year!!

Just Relaxing

December was one full month! I always look forward to the week after Christmas to get the house back in order and relax.

Mom and Dad left Tuesday with the oldest three to go to Chattanooga. They are visiting with cousins and the boys are getting in some extra wrestling time.

I opted to stay home with the three little ones because they have not been feeling up to par. All they want to do is sit in my lap. We spent most of Tuesday on my bed all snuggled together watching tv and it hasn't been much different today. I have managed to get all the sheets washed, some embroidery done and some blogging done, but that is about it.

I have loved every minute of my snuggle time and that we haven't had to go anywhere. I am catching up on all that sleep I missed during the first 25 days of the month!!

Christmas Day

After a late night, the kids actually slept in. Cy is my early riser everyday, but did not get up till 8:30 Christmas morning. I hate to wake sleeping children even on Christmas morning, but after Cy woke up Zack said it was time to get Adaleigh up.

Waiting for Daddy to get Adaleigh.

Still sleepy but excited to see everyone!

Best attempt at all six.

The Cookie Game

I found it very hard to take pictures, video, and watch the kids open their gifts. I wish I could have captured some of the moments better, but I finally gave up and enjoyed the moment!

We had a great, relaxing Christmas Day!!
