Texas is not making me fall in love

I was really looking forward to a mild winter but just my luck the entire country has been cold.  It snowed yet again here. The kids begged to go outside so  dug out the snow gear and bundled them up. After 30 plus minutes the kids were ready to go.  We spent all over 5 minutes outside. This is exactly why I don't want to live in a snowy/wet place with little kids. Once they are old enough to get themselves ready in clothes appropriate for the weather, I think I'd enjoy snowy days a whole lot more. Well, we were outside long enough to skate around and make a snow angel.  Jonathan was in the wrap and zipped into my jacket so he was pretty warm.

Grandma and Grandpa Dixon's Visit

Grandma Dixon came in town a little over a week after Jonathan was born.  Kherington made a list of what she wanted to do with here including coloring, games, toys, etc.  Kevin made one too, but his list just had one thing: take him to Chick-fil-a. Grandpa came for the last weekend since he was going to have a meeting in Dallas anyways. While he was here Kherington didn't want to do anything except play with him.  Ryan got ticket to the Dallas Stars Hockey game...I had to drag her out the door to it. She has ballet on Friday's and she didn't want to go to that either because she would miss those grandpa hours. Instead grandpa came to watch her during the ballet class (pretty funny to watch). 

While they were here I had the luxury of coming and going. I went to a couple church activities, shopping, running, doctors appointments and more without toting all the kids along with me.
