Sesame Street

February 26th, my friend Carrie and I took our girls to see "Sesame Street Live". Jack went to these shows twice so now it's Lyla's turn! We had a great time!

Friday - SNOW DAY!

Jack had a SNOW DAY today - no school!! Matt went in to work late so we all got to play in the snow one more time before it melts away...

more pictures of Thursday's snow

here's a slide show of Thursday evening (about 5:30pm) and a walk I took by myself at about 10:30pm...

updates

Ok, after being "reminded" by Matt that I haven't posted ANYTHING to the blog since Christmas (YIKES).......here goes:

For my birthday, we went to the Fort Worth Zoo

It got up into the 70s and was a beautiful sunny day

tuckered out.....

sissy, too......

Daddy????

February fun

Here's what February has brought us:

Jack got a haircut the other day -- he looks so cute and grown up!!

We woke up to a few inches of snow on the ground and it's STILL falling....

Lyla was very excited!!

Matt went outside and made a snowball - here's Jack throwing the snowball to Daddy,

and Daddy throwing it back (Kirby's thinking about jumping up and grabbing it)

I took the kids out in the front yard to build our VERY FIRST snowman EVER!!!

Ok, so I did most of the building -- Lyla "patted" the snowman for me (she kept calling him Frosty) and Jack helped place the carrot nose.

The perfect size for our family

After drying off and warming up, we went to the library for our own private story time. I guess no other Texans were brave enough to venture out...

Since I had my camera with me, I decided to take some pictures of the beautiful ( and rare) winter wonderland...

Our neighborhood park...

Our house....

This is what our snowman looked like about 2 hours after we made him. You can see how much snow has "replaced" the bald patches we made.

my birthday

We went out to dinner for my birthday ...

And then we had a Cheesecake Factory cheesecake!

YUM!
