Better Late then Never~

Our Christmas photos were taken with my phone only.  Its a sad story, that i will just keep to myself.

We had a wonderful Christmas.  Robert and Courtney were here from Tx.  We wish everyone else would have been able to make the trip back home.

 Christmas day I hosted a dinner at my house.  I was so excited to use all my Christmas dishes and fun decoratings.  We had to put tables together and mix and match stuff.... but I think it turned out beautiful!

Valentines Day

Valentines lunch with my favorite people in the whole.  Scott and I showed up at the girls school for lunch without letting them know.   It was a fun treat for them and us.  This is the last year they will attend the same school together.   Who knows when they will not be excited for us to drop in on them at school. Last night we went to jr high orientation with Alexandra.  She picked her classes and registered while we were there too.  oooh my goshhhhhh!  My baby girl is growing up.  Luckily i am still blessed with her presences EVERY morning in my warm bed. "Come snuggle"  This is the fastest she moves all morning. 

So the girls love "photo booth"  on our computer.  Here is a sample~

Maddie and Alexandra

 Madison

I love my girls! 

It's All New

I know I haven't been on here in awhile..... so heres a quick run down on the past month or so.

Maddie couldn't keep the spoon on her nose... so she thought hanging off her mouth was good enough.

 Alexandra got first place in the science fair at school.  Next she will compete at the District science fair.   You go girl!

 Maddie had to do a book report on a biography that she read.  She chose Bethany Hamilton,  She is a girl who was bit by a shark when she was 13 years old.  She lost her arm in the attack.  Madison then had to pretend to be the person she did the report on in a wax museum.  

 Why can't they just smile?  They love autotopia~

Cant beat 80 degrees in January!
