Fun on the First

We had a great start to the New Year!  We cleaned the house, did a little yard work, played a few games, went ice skating, and also had a quick/surprise visit from Mamaw, Papaw, Helen & Allen.

Cooper and daddy added an extra shelf to Reagan's bookshelf

 Cooper did take a little time to enjoy the cool weather

 back to work~Cooper was a little nervous

 a fun game of 4-square broke out in the garage.

 I played too, but had to take a few pictures...just because

 Today was the final day of Holiday Sk8 School for Reagan

 I joined Reagan on the ice for public skate

so sweet

 "come on slow poke!"

 she's getting so brave on the ice!

Happy New Year 2015

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2015!

the whole family stayed awake to watch the ball drop!

 it's 2015!

 We had some "taste" as my Granny used to call it!

 Cheers!

 Happy New Year!

Now, let's go to bed and get some sleep!

New Year's Eve 2014

We're soaking up every minute of Christmas break (still in our pjs!).  Today, we opened up the air hockey table the kids received for Christmas.  Reagan and Cooper became very competitive with each other and with me & Greg!

it started as a friendly game!

 they were both very focused on the game!

 once Greg got home from work, the games began again

it's all smiles when he scores

but not when his opponent scores on him!

 Greg challenged Reagan to a game of air hockey

 Cooper was on the sideline "coaching" both players

Lazy Days

The kids have certainly enjoyed their Christmas break this year.  Cooper has rarely been out of his boxers & t-shirt, and Reagan put back on her pajamas as soon as she took a shower!

who am I kidding, I've rarely been out of my fleece pants!

 this is the life ~ pajamas all day and new toys!

 Reagan loves anything creative

Sk8 School

Reagan has been attending Sk8 School while out for Christmas break.  She has ice skating lessons every night for 30 minutes, followed by 2 hours of free skate/practice.  She has enjoyed it so much!  She's gotten more confident and stronger in her skating, learned some new skills and made some new friends along the way.  Reagan says, "skating is my life"!  So glad she's found an activity she loves so much!
