Colby and his classmates got to dress in cowboy hats, boots, and jeans. Then they participated in the preschool version of Field Day – eating a trail snack, trail riding on [stick] horses, roping haystacks, taking a hayride, playing tug-of-war, having sack races, making an Indian paintbrush [a type of flower for all you non-Texans], dancing a hoedown, racing [tricycle] horses, and finally, eating some corn-chip pies.
Here’s Colby dancing in line to the hoedown.

And the teachers were really sweet with Kennedy – she got to take part in the festivities too.

[I have some pics of Carlee on my camera but for the most part she was inconsolable... she's been cutting molars this week and not getting much sleep at night. She finally gave up and took a 10-minute nap at the end of Rodeo Day, right before lunch.]

I walked outside and Colby & Kennedy were using their imaginations to take a bath. Looks like the same amount of toys are in the pretend bathbox as in the real bathtub.

Dinner date at Caffe Capri in Downtown Bryan tonight. It was busy and we talked a lot, so I forgot to take a pic of the inside.

Carlee’s first night in a booster seat at the big table! (instead of in a high chair) Don’t worry, she did eat, despite what it looks like in the picture.

Carlee now gets very upset if we go outside and she is not allowed to jump on the trampoline. (She says, “poh-leen” and points.) And Kennedy and Colby love to bounce her. That makes it pretty hard to get a picture of all the fun they have when she is crawling around up there.

My mom gave my dad a recliner for his birthday. So my kids and my 20 year-old sister played with the box. And a flashlight.

In honor of Read Across America week, I thought I’d give you a picture of our newest bookworm.

Today in Bible study we used Zacchaeus and Jesus puppets to tell the story. This is Kennedy giving Zacchaeus a piggyback ride during music class. He Is short, after all.

I gave the kids a chocolate chip granola bar on our way home. This is what I found when we got there. I think she enjoyed it.

The rug I ordered for the living room 6 weeks ago was backordered and just arrived today. [I'll take pics of the rug in the room soon.] The kids decided that while I was trying to get it opened, they should all make it a horse. Giddyup, rug.

Colby said this when running by me today. My kids love chasing each other all around the house and today’s game was chasing with a spatula. I’m guessing to cook each other they would tickle each other with the spatula? I didn’t ever see the “cooking” going on. But not to worry, these cooking utensils really are for toy usage – I have my own for the kitchen for actual food consumption.
[If you look carefully you'll see Carlee crawling to be part of the game too. I had to stop the kids for this very posed picture with said spatula.]

I went to Houston today for a handbell festival with my handbell choir from church. There were 40 choirs and almost 500 people ringing handbells together.

Colby’s school had I love Mommy day today. I brought him Chick-fil-A and he made me a cute necklace and we ate cupcakes and he sang me a song and he gave me these purple flowers and I loved I love Mommy day. What a great kid.

Sometimes Colby gets to play games on my iPhone. Sometimes he’ll take pictures. Here is one from today.

I have never seen snow in my hometown like this. I was like a kid in a candy store, glued to my window to watch the best white stuff I’ve seen south of the Red River.
I actually got excited when the outside looked like this. It was snowing! And sticking to the dirt.

The kids enjoyed watching too [one of my fave pics I've taken.]

BUT THEN.

I think the final count was 2 inches. That’s pretty unheard of where I live. And when you consider that 2 days ago it was 75 degrees. [Then 2 days after it was 60 degrees.]

My kids built a snowman and then jumped on the trampoline with Kim. Pics on Kevin’s camera coming hopefully soon.
