Another break

The week of January 16th we got hit with a snow storm, wind, and freezing rain which meant 4 days of no school (Monday was already a holiday) and 2 basketball games canceled that now make these weeks hectic in order to make up the games. I can't really say we did anything productive with this extra week and had some cabin fever. We were completely snowed in on Wednesday and couldn't get out of our driveway because of the snow drifts. It was hard getting motivated to get back into the routine of school but I was also thankful to be back. Kendall really needed to go back to daycare too. Now we are out of school June 21st! I am hoping for nice weather in June though we will still be in school because it is so much better to get my PE classes outside that time of year. We took Kendall out on Tuesday before the wind picked up. Shane pulled her in the sled for about 45 seconds before he accidently dumped her. Needless to say we didn't get her back on the sled. Maybe next year she will forget about it. On the sled...

The last week of break...

went by fast but I won't complain because I am lucky enough to have a job gives me so much time off during the holidays. We had my family and the Claey's family over for the Alamo bowl on December 29th. Kendall and the Claey's girls. She was so excited to have "kids" over is what she calls them.

Then Tracey came into town and stayed with Julie for a few days, so we got to hang out with the Price boys and Jaymin and Rilyn Kerlee. Playing in our back yard we tried to get a shot of all 6 of them together, it only took a few shots.

Playing with the neighbor dogs and Kona (the Kerlee's dog).

I could finally get Kendall to wear a hat because the other kids were.

Christmas

Finally getting caught up... On Christmas Eve we had Shane's Mom's side of the Family over for a soup dinner. It was nice to be able to host at our house this year. Tia Erin came over early to make her tortilla soup and hang out with us. Kendall got her 1st Barbie from Tia.

She also got some play food from Shane's cousin Heather and got to spend time with her cousin Drew both on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. She loved Drew and Drew seemed to like hanging out with Kendall too.

Then Christmas morning was just us for a little while then Shane's Mom, Dad, Tia (who stayed with us) and Shane's brother Tristan and Drew came back over for Christmas breakfast. Kendall opening the last morning of the advent calendar to get her gummy vitamin and an M&M.

Nice bed head!

Then for the rest of Christmas we headed down to my parent's though this is the only picture I have for now. Kendall got a sleeping bag from Kyle and Michelle and loves it. I will have to get some pictures of her laying in it from my Mom.
