Christmas Time!!

Here are some of my favorite pictures of Kaitlin over the Christmas break. She had a wonderful Christmas. She has been so busy playing with all of her new toys. One of the things she received for Christmas was a cupcake maker. Her grandparents in Washington also got her a Paula Deen cook book and a whole cup cake kit. She looks so cute in her apron and mitt. Needless to say we have been making a lot of cupcakes. The ones that we have made from scratch are a lot better than the mixes that they have sent with the cupcake maker. Those of you that made items from the Easy Bake oven when you were little know what I mean. We hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas as well.

Let it .....ICE?!!

Well Kaitlin and I are warm at home enjoying our first snow(ice) day off from school. Last night we got about.20" of ice and sleet acculmulations. I got the call at 5:30 this morning that there would not be any school on Monday. This is our last week of school before Christmas break anyway. I am not sure how many days we will miss this week. They are calling for more winter precip. on Tuesday and Wednesday. The temperature dropped in a hurry yesterday. We went to church last night at 6:00 and the temp was 58 degress. We got out of church at 7:15 and it was 28 degrees. It is currently 12 degrees. At least we still have power and can stay warm. We would love to have a good snow, but the past few years it seems we have just been getting ice storms instead. I am posting some pics from Kaitlins play at church last night. She was a Christmas tree. She also had a solo. She did GREAT!!!! She is currently practicing her keyboard for her performance day in music class on Friday. She is going to play the song Jolly Old Saint Nicolas. She is such a fast learner. We hope everyone is warm and safe today. 10 days until Christmas!!!

Jesus is the reason for the season!!

#1 Sooners headed to Miami

Here are our great Sooner pictures from this weekend!!!

Mulberry Hill

This past weekend we traveled to Pleasant Hill, MO to stay at a wonderful bed and breakfast. Oh and I fogot to mention we were going to see our Oklahoma Sooners play in the Big 12 Championship game againist the MO Tigers at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. We had an amazing trip. We traveled with two of our great friends Randy and Sonya. This was our first time to stay at a bed and breakfast. It was wonderful!!!! Mulberry Hill was a beautiful house built in 1904. John and I stayed on the 3rd floor. I posted 3 pictures of our room called the Garden of Eden. The breakfast the next morning was amazing too!!! We had so much fun. Saturday night we headed to KC to Arrowhead. We had so many layers of clothing on that it was hard to move. It was 23 degrees that night!! But we yelled and jump up and down on our feet all night cheering on our Sooners. John yelled so much he can barely talk today. :) Our OU Sooners won 62 to 21. Now they are headed to Florida for the National Championship Game.
Boomer Sooner!!!!

Kaitlin had a great weekend with my mom. She came up to our house and stayed with her because she was in the Christmas parade on Saturday. They played the Wii, watched movies, knitted, and just had a ball. I think Max missed us more than Kait.
