Storybook Character

Today William had to dress up as his favorite storybook character. He chose to be the little boy in his basketball book. It will be another fun day in Kindergarten!

Kindergarten Surprise

Eric did not have school today so he made a surprise visit to William's Kindergarten class. William was overwhelmed when he found out that his daddy came to read a book at his school. He will definitely remember this day forever!

100th Day of School

Today is the 100th day of school. William was so excited this morning! The kindergartners celebrate with lots of exciting activities. Above picture of his shirt that he made with 100 sport stamps. It is also pajama day.

Big Boy Bike

Sledding

Friday we got 7" of snow on top of the ice. Schools were closed for the 4th consecutive day! Today the kids had fun "sledding" down our street. It was a beautiful day and all the snow is almost gone. But they are predicting more this week. Crazy Texas weather!!

ICE ICE Baby!

This is our 3rd ice day home from school! I don't remember ever having 3 bad weather days in a row. Eric is on contract till the middle of summer anyway so he is enjoying this extra free time. The kids have been busy making homemade Valentines. Above William showing off a few of his. It has been a great project for him to work on his writing.
Sarah has been my little helper. She loves rocking Catherine to sleep for her naps. We have also done lots of baking, cleaning, rock band, movies, games and puzzles.

Elizabeth started the week with strep. She is feeling better now and fortunately nobody else has gotten it!
