Crafty Spice

So just call me crafty spice. I just whipped this little beanie up for Alex yesterday. I knew how to make the hat part, but the ear flaps, and ties are new, and I love it!!! Now if he'd just keep it on.

I didn't know I was this talented, the crafty God's were good to me!

(Don't worry thats an orange in his mouth, sorry it looks gross)

California

Here are a few pictures from when the boys and I went to California to visit my sister, with my mom, grandma, and other sister, in October. We didn't do much there, except shop, eat, and go to the beach. Next time we'll hopefully go to Disneyland!

GOOGLES!

Lucille's BBQ restaurant

Squished in the van, fun?! My Gram and I.

She'll wish she didn't pull ugly faces

The back seat

The Beach

Alex' first touch of the ocean, He LOVED it!

Every time I took him out he cried, and tried to crawl back to the water.

It was so fun to hang out with my fam. It's sad my brother and his wife couldn't be there, it will be so fun when they will be able to come with us, with their little boy, and twin girls.

Thanks Kylee, and Andy, for moving somewhere fun for us to visit. Hopefully we'll be back soon!

What does your front yard look like today?

This is what ours looks like. A wonderland of snow. Is it Christmas? Alex is fascinated by it, it's so cute to see him get excited and jibber jabber in his own language while he stands at the window watching the snow fall.

I'm trying to stay positive, but seriously I don't like the snow, other than to look at. I'm not ready for this yet. I'm not looking forward to trooping through the snow with two kids in tow, sick cooped up kids, and having to dress the kids in two extra layers whenever we have to go anywhere. Bah Humbug!

This last weekend Justin went to spend some quality time with his friend Dave, at the Texas Motor Speedway. Sounds and looks like fun, hopefully he just doesn't become too involved. If he has anything else to say I'll let him blog about it. Here are some pics I choose to tell of the event!
