This is what you do when you are out of school for the day because it has snowed. You figure out a way to set up the TV and watch a movie in the hot tub with your neighbors. Go Casin figuring out how to do this.
Snowing all day
This is in February. We have lived here 9 years and have never seen snow like this before. We are almost into March and we have SNOW! I am so glad we had a snow day today. I needed a down day and sleeping in. Thanks Wylie ISD!
Awesome Room overlooking the golf course.
Bouncy Beds. So the hot tub was closed so we came back and did the next best thing, jump on the bed and take photos. I am sure the people below us just loved our party.
Movie at "Lov Sack" Theater "Dear John" tear and tissue movie. Kristi's brother is the original inventor of the Lov Sacks. They have started opening up theaters with "Lov Sacks" couches to sit in. It is really comfy.
So a girls weekend We all need to get away and do one of these once in a while. We had the best time. All of us were complaining on the way home how bad our jaws hurt from laughing so hard. It is so great to get away go to a spa, hang out giggle, eat and watch sappy love movies.

Happy Birthday from Four Seasons
Dinner at the Grand Lux in Dallas
So.... we had had a dog, 3 hamster, 2 rats (which left after a month. that was gross!!!) and 4 cats in 9 years. But, when it comes to cats our favorite, we can not figure out why our all our cats die. We always pick the runts or the ones that seem to need the most help(challenged). We love our cats that we have had. We feed them, play with them and even play "laser Cat" with them. We can not decide why "Oreo" only lasted 4 months, she was not afraid of heights. We would find her on on our roof of our house hanging out for a bird or she would be bunking down in a sack or a box inside the house. She loved to hide under the bed and wait for you to walk by and then grab your feet to play. What ever it was we all loved "Oreo". So when mom found her in the garage door we figured she got on top of the garage door to pounce on one of us and we left the other direction to go the door came down and so did "Oreo". We will Miss our crazy cat and wait for a while again before we attempt to have another cat in our home. I am still trying to figure out why all our cats seem to have the 1 in a million accidental "deaths" and I am always the one to be in the middle of the craziness. I have been told that "NO more Cats for us."
So Skyler very excited got to finally play air soft. The rules? No one is allowed to shoot at Skyler. Casin Carson and now Skyler have all used this sky goggles as their mask. For some reason my children like to wear them all the time.
A kid that takes after his mom. I asked him what kind of cake he
wanted he said chocolate. We went to cold stone to get an ice cream cake. His choice of cakes? Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Frosting with Chocolate Candy bars crunched up with Oreo Cookie and Cookie Dough. Whew. What a cake! He loved it.
Im not sure why I can not get this to rotate but enjoy this funny clip of Skyler called, "I WAS GOOD!" Make sure you pause the music at the bottem of the blog to beable to hear skyler talk.
We have had snow in Abilene for a week straight. This is the first time since we moved here 9 years ago. The kids have had so much fun playing in the snow. Once again the Family from Utah provides all the hats,gloves,suits to play in the snow. I made my kids wear the Santa hats. This is our Christmas card since I didn't get to one this year. Merry Christmas
So we went to bed Christmas Eve not knowing where our cat Oreo was at. I thought she was in her bed and Savannah thought she was next door visiting her mamma. The next morning we still couldn't find her. We decided to wait until it got light outside and look. we started to open our presents and we hear a muffled "Meow". we couldn't find where it was coming from. Suddenly Casin jumps off the couch and yell, "She's in the couch I felt her." What? Well we pulled the cushions off the couch and low and behold a hole. Suddenly a head pops out. We all turn to Carson, "Buddy what did you do?" He claims that she got in there herself. he didn't do anything. He told us last night he put her in the couch behind the cushions but not in the couch. So Oreo spent the night in our leather couch! Oh I just love boys and their wild ideas. So, does this warrant a new couch? I sure hope so!
We had a Christmas Eve party with some friends from the neighborhood. We got to cut out and bake and frost Cookies for Santa. Eli and I made the best cookies for Santa.
What can I say the package came it was addressed to ME from Grandma Thorsted
What can I say? Well lets just remind you all that I was the one who officially said Mom did and since I haven't seen proof from anyone else I guess this is Moms way of telling you all who is exactly her favorite. LOL!
