the last couple of weeks.

Man, I feel like I'm behind on this blog... I was going through my camera and have TONS of pics. So now I'm doing a little photo dump of the last couple of weeks. I don't like to blame anything on being busy cause lets face it, we're all really busy. So here's my catch up from my 'blog laziness.'

a visit to one of our new favorite places in town, Blue Spoon.  These boys loves them some frozen yogurt.

We had two babysitters house guests for the week & the boys were in heaven. Our living room was transformed into a basketball court every night.

concert time

then every parents worst nightmare happened (slightly kidding).... school was canceled. Freezing rain hit us so I had 4 kids housebound for the day. Game time!

boys will be boys... these 2 climb, stand on, jump off pretty much everything.

One of the boys' favorite things to do, watch their John Deere tractor movies (while "playing tractors"). You think these 2 could be any more boy?

and we finished the last week with a birthday fiesta with the fam for my mom & me.

Pajama party!

Cal's class had a jammie & pillow party on Thursday & I'm pretty sure this was right behind the class Christmas party, as one of Cal's favorite days. He proudly laid out his jammies, slippers, and picked out what pillow pet to take the night before and anxiously went to bed, so he could wake up and go to school the next morning. It's such a joy sending our kiddo off to school a couple days a week knowing that he just adores his teacher (who's amazing!) and class.

When it snows, it snows.

Holy winter wonderland. Our last week has been filled with snow, snow & more snow. In fact, we got another 5 or so inches today alone. We went from a very non-white winter, to this... it's insane! Cal is in snow heaven. The first couple of days that it snowed were pure torture for him cause he was sick, so we've been making up for lost time the last couple of days.

Firemen.

Have I said lately how much I love having 2 little dudes.

An early little b-day celebration.

We took a quick trip over to the west side last weekend for a little shopping, hotel, whatever-mom-wants-to-do early bday celebration. And my dear husband was so great and went along with all my "fun" shopping requests. There's nothing more I love than getting out of town for a bit and spending some quality time with my 3 favorite boys. And boy, did the boys have fun. So much fun in fact, that Cal threw-up ("pottied out his mouth") from excitement on the dinner table at Z Tejas. Lovely. Someone was a little excited to get the hotel and go swimming. You'd think we don't get out much with how giddy the boys were to stay in a hotel...

Ikea!

Oh Tejas Trio, have I ever missed you!

God's country.

My dad, Ian & Clyde were out bird hunting a couple weekends ago and they snapped these pics on Ian's phone. Holy smokes, talk about feeling lucky to live in such an amazing place...
