um yeah... feel free to laugh so hard you cry

ok, i seriously, i thought this was just about one of the funniest clips from the office ever... i know this only will strike some of you as funny, so if you don't actually cry that's ok too...

what? they actually close ft. sill?

yes, they do. well, at least the dental clinic is closed when there is too much ice and snow. a couple days after our trip to missouri we got a little bit of weather... it got really icy on monday night and by the time tuesday morning rolled around, it was pretty bad, so bryan got to take the day off. how fun! the whole town pretty much shuts down with it snows or gets icy, so, we had a few days of fun with him home.

on thursday, we went with the dahlkes to go sledding at the church. we don't have any sleds, but they had the great idea of using laundry baskets. the girls had a blast. they wanted to stay forever...



and once again, jack missed all the action while he slept the day away...

missouri... 3 kids, one nannie, and 9 hours to go


a couple weekends ago, we decided on a quick trip to missouri... well, i guess you could say, i decided. bryan was leaving for a trip to the dental conference in dallas for 5 days, and rachel was visiting my parents in missouri, so i decided to drive up there with the kids. my mom called nannie and she wanted to go too, so she flew to oklahoma city and we drove there together. it was a great trip! the girls were awesome on the drive and jack pretty much just slept and ate. it was so fun to be able to spend that extra time with nannie. she is awesome!

we got to jeff city on wednesday night. rachel had been there since sunday and it was so good to see her and aurora and ty. danny made a short stop on his drive to georgia and so it was good to get everyone together. we had tons of fun partying with the frank family and just hanging out. but as it turns out, if bryan isn't there, i really don't take any pictures. what's up? so, the only time i pulled out the camera was to snap this too cute picture of my dad and jack...

mt. scott... part 2


ever since our first trip to mt. scott, grace has been begging us to go back. whenever we are on i-44 and driving past it, she will look out her window and say... there's mt. scott... can we go there today? too cute. so, we waited for the right time and the right weather and we took the trip. it was just as windy as before, but grace and raegan love it anyway.



where a kid can be a kid...

several weeks ago we took the kiddos to chuck e cheese. this was quite an adventure considering it was my first trip ever... that's right folks... i had never ever been to chuck e cheese. in that great city of jefferson where i grew up there was no chuck e cheese and as a result, we spent all of our birthdays at the roller rink (which i think is better anyway). the girls had a great time and played for hours. me and jack pretty much just hung out most of the time.



grace was excited to stand and have her picture taken with chuck e cheese, but raegan was truly terrified... she wanted nothing to do with him. i don't blame her... maybe we will plan her birthday parties for the roller rink too.
