A Snow Day for Everyone!

A Before and After Shot of Playing in the Snow!

Except my school system! Luckily, I had a afternoon training session and I had planned on taking the morning off. I don't know what I would have done otherwise since Reesi preschool was two hours late. Reesi got a little time in the little snow and got to preschool just in time for Kindermusic.

Archenemy!

This swing set continues to be a thorn in our side. The putting together of the swing set in 2006 threatened our marriage. Larry was adiment that we sell it when we move, but I was dead set against it. So here we are with a fort in our garage and the remaining pieces in our backyard. Of course, swing set was not going to make it easy for us. It is about 1 inch to wide and will not fit through the gate of our fence. So now the question remains, how long will this for sit in our garage until we can find a solution? My guess-at least 5 months! Anybody else want in on the bet?

It's Pink!

I made Larry, against his will, help me paint Reesi's room. The last time we tried to paint a room it did not turn out so well, but I was confident that we could do this. It really wasn't as bad as I expected. We worked for a little over two hours Friday night and an hour and a half Saturday morning and that was it. Reesi was in Indiana this weekend with Mimi and Papoo so she was so pleased when she came home to her pink room. We still need bedding, blinds, curtain rods, curtains, shelves for toys and wall decorations. Slowly, but surely we will get there. All Reesi cares about is that is will be a ballet room or as she says bal-la-lay.

The Doctor is In!

Papa Snoddy has been in the hospital for rehab after his back surgery and Reesi knew just what he needed to feel better. She took her doctors kit, lab coat, and gloves to the hospital to check him out. She says she's going to be a doctor one day. However, at the Adventure Science Museum she runs and screams when I try to show her the model organs, but we'll still keep the dream alive!

Fast Asleep

The best way to go to sleep is singing loudly for all to hear. At least that is what Reesi has been doing lately to go to sleep. This, of course, has resulted in her going to sleep at a later hour. Tonight, she once again began to sing. After getting on to her several times she decides to sleep somewhere else, her anywhere chair. I adimantly refuse to let her do this, but, as she many times does, she convinced me to let her try it. To my delight she was asleep within 15 minutes. I think I will move her before I go to bed, but I couldn't resist taking this sweet picture. However, thirty minutes after snapping this picture I hear tornado sirens. I have never lived close enough to a city to hear tornado sirens so it kinda freaked me out. Under the steps she went and she never made a sound. I thought it was funny as I was watching the weather. They are warning, "Go into an inner closet in your house right away, but if you do see a funnel cloud email us if you can." Luckily, we didn't see a funnel cloud.

Fat Cat!

I was telling Amy about Karen's fat cat. It is sooooo fat. The pictures really don't do it justice.

Homecoming

We had a great day with our friends in ------ yesterday. Reesi got to play at Marilyn's house with Jenna while I got to go to the movie with Amy and shopping with Marilyn. After a gourmet dinner at the ------- it was time to go to the homecoming game. Due to some bad timing we actually missed the homecoming part of the game, but still got to see tons of friends that we miss dearly. Reesi loved it and didn't want to leave. Larry had just about talked me into spending the night with the ------- so that we could have more fun with our friends, but then he remembered he had to feed the goats. Seriously guys, there really are goats to feed. It is so great to see everyone, but it does remind me how much we do miss our friends in White House.

Reesi's Funny

As I laughed at something funny Reesi said she declared, "Mom, you were right, I was wrong. I am funny."
She is pretty funny.
