A little 2021 fun... (January-March)

Alli and I took the kids on a little day trip to Aggieland Safari!






Reid's love language is getting to sneak back out of bed (after GK and Rhett are asleep) to watch a special sporting event.  I love how this picture captures his joy while watching the college national championship game.  



January 19 is always a double birthday celebration for Chris and Mumsie!  We also celebrated Alli's birthday in February and Popsie and Thomas' birthday in March, but sadly I don't have pictures.  



Even though the actual rodeo was cancelled this year, these two still got to have their last preschool rodeo day!  Oh how I love the preschool stickhorse parade.  



Rhett had his school Valentine's Day Party...





and all 3 kids went to a park Valentine's Day Party with some small group friends!  


Alli and I took Reid, Georgia Kate, and Luke to Friendswood one day (while Rhett and Perry were at school) to visit with Guinny!  We had a great visit!  

We also realized that Reid is going to catch up to Guinny soon!


We had fun with some small group friends at Pack-a-thon!  I was so proud of the kids for hanging in there the whole time and working so hard!


We didn't have any big plans over Spring Break, but the kids went to a day of their favorite horse camp and we had a cousin zoo day!  









It's hard to believe, but we are now right at the 1 year mark of Covid coming in and shaking things up!

Snow Daze

 Well, the kids have been hoping for snow and much to our surprise, we got some SNOW!

We had promised the cousins a Valentine's Day sleepover, so on Sunday the 14th we did just that!  Chris went back home to sleep, but I stayed at Alli's.  

heart-shaped pizza for dinner!

The kids knew that snow was a possibility and the anticipation woke them up EARLY!  
They were beyond thrilled when they looked out the window!


It was crazy to look down the street and see this!  


The first couple of hours the kids were in and out of the house playing!  It was REALLY COLD outside, so some lasted longer than others. 










The rest of the week was kind of a blur.  School was cancelled and the power was off and on.  Our house was extremely cold, but we were very fortunate not to have had any damage inside our home.  For that we are so thankful!  




Once the roads were safe, the kids and I made the trek over to Mumsie and Popsie's house for some electricity and a warm night's sleep.  Chris wanted to stay home to monitor the pipe situation.  




The kids finally got to make their little snowman! :)



Just another crazy thing to add to a crazy year!
