January 2017

WELCOME 2017!!!!  The theme of the month was ****SNOW****

January found us incurring a LOT of snow and a LOT of closures due to snow days.

  This is our neighborhood...so pretty!

We had a great time playing in it and at the beginning of February there are still big piles sporadically around town.  Other than that, it was a pretty quiet month around here since we didn't have any sporting events to go to, save for Presley's weekly ballet class.

 Here are some pics from the month of January.

This pic shows my little troopers ready for school on time, but due to a 2 hour delay at school, they came to work with me.

One of our traditions on a snowy day is to walk up to a nearby Starbucks for hot cocoa & a snowman cookie.  With 8 inches on the ground on this trip, I don't think we've ever walked in this much snow!

Here's us on the way home.

Later that day we took out the sleds.  The powder was so awesome and we could glide down multiple hills in one trip.

  Daddy and I did manage to break away and try out a new brewery for lunch.....one of the extremely few pics of the both of us (even if neither one of us is 100% in the photo)

Here's Maddox at his first basketball practice trying out some dribbling moves and representing his fave team

All the kids participated in their schools' Crazy Hair Day.  Maddox had streaks of aqua, orange and pink (which stained his head for weeks)

Presley had one aqua ponytail and one pink one.

Dylan blew his hair up and colored 1/2 orange and 1/2 aqua.  

That's about it for January.  With basketball starting and baseball signups & tryouts right around the corner, we will be running around a lot more.  Stay tuned....
