Happenings at Nama and Poppy's house

I got Chesley to try out my favorite routine of breakfast tacos and Starbucks coffee over the holidays. Looks like he enjoyed it.

Samuel got his first hair cut.

Jessica and Jenny and I went to Ikea in Austin for the day. They found lots of treasures and then tried to figure out if they really needed everything they got before going through the check out. Shopping with mom isn't what it used to be....

We have a walker...

and a jumper (Malyn at Bigz)

Eli cooing at ?? his sisters? mom? dad? or TV.

Boots fit, finally.

CA girls heading home. :(

Chesley bought me a new car. He keeps trading in my cars. At least he's not trading me in. !!! :)

We had some snow as everyone knows. Freezing weather and ice and some snow puts this city DOWN!

Jessica and the boys spent the night with us. Jessica and I were determined to stay up and wait for the snow to fall. We didn't make it. But woke up to this in the morning.

So we put Ryan to work right away, shoveling out the front walk way. It took him a while. We don't have that BIG fancy equipment they have up north.

Snow was on streets, sidewalks, fences, driveways, roof tops, etc. But not on the grass. I think there was a layer of ice then some snow so it stuck for a while.

 

What else does one do on a snow day after walking in it, feeling it, taking pictures of it, and playing in it?

We put a 1,000 piece puzzle together.

Samuel loves bath time at Nama's house. 

One thing we forgot...

making chocolate chip cookies.
