He had the best time everywhere we went and was a trooper! He is getting 5 new teeth so he had a terrible time sleeping but was wonderful during the day!

Snow what fun

We got 5 more inches of snow yesterday! Kaitlin was thrilled her Snow unicorn did not melt and was ready to play in the snow!

 
My snow bunnies

The goal for the day make a snow seahorse

Mission accomplished

Today they made a snow puppy! They are really great snow animals! I had no idea Kory was such a talented snow artist!

We made some yummy snow cream

Kaitlin said it was cold
 
Cabin fever is officially setting in with more snow in the next two days! Thankful to not have to get out in the snow and thankful for a snowy fun weekend!

We were sad to leave but had such a great day!! We had an amazing lunch and hit the road back to Ohio! We made it back with no stops in record time!

Christmas Day part one

Christmas Day was very special and extra crazy this year! We had planned to drive back the day after Christmas but changed ALL of our plans after seeing the forecast for snow in Ohio! We were thankful to be in Tennessee for Christmas and make to back to Ohio for the snow!

Kaitlin was so excited about Christmas that she got up at 9:00!! We were all waiting on her and she was so happy when she finally woke up!

Santa came and left everyone some goodies!

Kaitlin started asking for “Bucky” the pirate ship on November 1st and never waivered or second guessed that request! Although she added a Dr’s bag request last minute … Santa is very good at knowing Kaitlin’s preference in toys!
