This was our snow that was at the end of January. Heston is crying b/c Josh just hit him in the face with a snowball. We had about 4-5 inches.

Heston on Kate's Birthday, getting ready to celebrate Well, as you can all see, we stay busy! We had a great trip Christmas seeing the family in Texas. We traveled long and far to see as many people as we could in the short time we were there.
Josh has been busy with Basketball and this Saturday we will be signing him up for Baseball. His lowest grade on his progress report was an 81 in his weakest subject, writing. So he has worked hard to keep his grades up and has shown that he can handle making the grades while involved in a sport/activity. Thursday is Grandparents Day at school and he has asked Mike to come for that.
Kate had a wonderful 5th Birthday! Her party went well and she had LOTS of fun. Just when I had a moment to catch my breath Josh was asking about his birthday party...so no rest for me til March 12th...at least! Our church held a Princess Tea on Saturday which me and Kate attended. She had a great time. We even got to see the "real" Beauty and the Beast-she thought that was awesome. She also enjoyed the food! After the tea, we went to a friend of mine's baby shower. She is having a boy due on March 26th (which was Heston's due date) Kate also had fun there-eating cake of course! Then we were off to Josh's last basketball game of the season-his tournement starts this weekend-we had a full Saturday to say the least!
Heston can't wait til his Birthday. This weekend he sang over and over the Happy Birthday song. He kept saying I want cake and I want Chuck E Cheese (whom he is scared of). He fell against a table at church yesterday and split is chin open. (well between his lip and chin) It bled so much and looked so aweful that I took him to see Granddad at the hospital-just to make sure we didn't need stitches. All checked out ok.
Jon is in town again this week so again I am getting some break from having all the kid responsibility on me. I have been so focused on everyone else that today I made a doctors appointment for myself (since I havent even been for a check up since Heston was born).
Last night mom and dad came over to watch the Super Bowl, we had a great time and Josh is very glad the Saints won and Jon and I really didn't care who won...Mom and Dad were pulling for the Colts (Peyton Manning, since he played at Tennessee)
Kate has another birthday party to attend this weekend and the kids are also looking forward to Valentine's Day parties at school this week - Jon and I have no plans for Valentine's Day - (I guess that is the way it is for most parents with small children)
Until next time-Cheers!
