Christmas Morning at Memommy's....
This was our 2nd Christmas morning to wake up at memommy's house and the kids love it because Tripp & Benjamin are there too. So they have lots of fun. The boys all had matching Star Wars pj's (unplanned) and they all got General Grievous Light Sabers (not planned, but a last minute coordination)

Christopher got a Razor Spark Scooter & some new Star Wars gear


Caroline got a new Princess bike with a baby seat


Christmas Day at Nana's house....
Time to open gifts, go Caroline!
Christopher's turn...poor guy looks sick in this picture. He had the flu all through Christmas, ugh!

Cousins.....Justin, Jordan & Christopher (Caroline wouldn't stay in the picture)

Snow Day!!

Well, we woke up to 8" of snow on Monday morning. We went out to play in it and by the end of the day this is what Christopher & Caroline looked like...

LOL, Just kidding....although, we were very cold by the time we came in!! We have now been in the house for 2 days, and I think we will venture out tomorrow. Here are some more pics from the day:



And....a little snow cream!!!!


I think this is the first time my kids have had snow cream. My Aunt Peggy would always fix us snow cream on snow days and I remember her saying "you can't have snow cream on the first snow or if it only snows a little bit. You can only have it when we have a really good snow." Well, I guess this has been the first REALLY good snow of their lifetime. I remember loving snow cream, but they weren't too impressed. Maybe I don't know how to make it, or they have gotten spoiled to BlueBell Homemade Vanilla Icecream?!?

Christmas Pics coming....sorry, I've been in a blogging slump!

Gettin' Ready for Christmas

We had a fun Thanksgiving weekend....we spent Thanksgiving day at Wade's mom's house, and ended the day with setting up and decorating her Christmas tree. The kids love it because she lets them do the whole thing by themselves!!

Then we headed to my mom's for the day on Friday. We just hung around, watched movies, and I got to hold my new niece, Janie Kate, for about 3 hours while Wade & the kids went to the M'boro RU meeting.
On Saturday, we had our Annual Summar Family Thanksgiving & Christmas festivities. Here's a picture of all the kids and their "leader"...Uncle Cameron!!
We have not gotten out our Christmas decorations yet....Christopher is ready, but we haven't talked Daddy into getting the tree down yet. Hopefully soon!!

My Little Cub Scout

Christopher earned his first couple of badges at Cub Scouts a couple of weeks ago. He was so excited and we were very proud! He's so handsome in his uniform!

Visit to Murfreesboro

We made a quick trip to Murfreesboro last weekend to see baby Janie, see the progress of Katie's new house, and just to spend the day at Memommy's. Here are some pics from the day:

Caroline is so proud to hold her brand new GIRL cousin!


"Aunt B" with my niece, nephews, and of course my babies too!

All of the boys love playing in the dirt on Aunt Katie's construction site....everything is looking good and coming together!

Caroline sure was enjoying the new toys at Memommy's that were handed down from Ethan & John's house

We had a good quick trip to see family....it is always good to just spend time together at home.

Jane Katherine is Here!

My brand new niece was born on Monday, October 25th at 2:25pm. She weighs in at a whopping 9lbs 1oz, and was 20-7/8" long...and very healthy. She arrived in high-style at the brand new hospital....everything about that hospital is luxurious...no complaints!! Here are some pictures from the day:

Memommy can't wait to get this little girl home to snuggle!

Overall, it was a great day. There were lots of people waiting at the hospital to meet Janie upon her arrival, and many others came to visit soon after. Congratulations Katie & Terry!

Katie's Baby Shower

We had Katie's baby shower on October 2nd to celebrate the upcoming arrival of baby Janie! Here are some pictures....I am so excited to have a new niece(technically my first niece)!!! Caroline wants to know how long is Janie going to be a baby, and when can I play with her??

Pray for Katie as she delivers baby Janie sometime this week. And, selfishly, I'm praying that she comes on the weekend :) We'll keep you posted!
