Winter Flurries

So here I am 9 months later catching up on my blogging.... Here are some happenings from Winter 2011:


This year Jeff was off work on our anniversary, Monday, January 3rd. Since we couldn't find a babysitter, he planned a fun family date in Fort Worth for us, and we all had the best time together. First, we went to the 'Ol Southern Pancake House, which the boys thought was heaven on earth. This picture is taken at our second stop - the Fort Worth Botanical Gardens. I've got a good one, folks!
















Exploring with Daddy on the trails!


Jack found a fun seat!




On to the stockyards. First up, a real cattle drive!




Engrossed from the beginning!




Here come the longhorns!!





So cool....these things are huge (and tame, thankfully).



After the cattle drive, we all conquered a human maze!





Peek-a-boo! Have you found the way out yet??



Getting close to the end finally!




The boys got to gallop on a horse next! Sort of....




Ride 'em cowboy! All in all, our family date day was a huge hit and a great way to experience some of Fort Worth's fun attractions without fighting any crowds!


The boys loved all the snow we got in Texas this year!



Enamored.



Storytime with our friends, Joanna and Campbell when they came for a visit. Jeff is a good sport!






A BIG snow fell on Texas!











We actually got to break out our sleds and our front yard was perfect for our kids to sled down.



Whee!



Mommy even got to play!



A highlight - Eating snow! Mmmm.... If only we had snocone syrup!




These guys are buddies. Isaac thought it was so cool to have his brothers in his crib with him. There was lots of giggling!




Happiness = Holding Night-Night while getting a good suck. :)



Daddy strikes again! Not that this trio is complaining.




My first school project with Jack - making a Valentine's box. We survived!



Another favorite winter activity is roasting marshmallows in our fireplace.



We were so thrilled to have Ma come visit us in Texas. We don't see enough of that lady!


Aunt Sam came up, too and survived a lapful of Pinter boys. Her day is coming!
