SNOW! and more

OK, so you can't really see the snow because it just started coming down and didn't start sticking yet, but you can tell that it is freezing by their faces! Afton really wanted to do a snow angel but I convinced her there was just too much mud and not enough snow.


We went to Bass Pro Shops to take pictures with Santa. The picture was cute but I liked the action shot on the bear the best!

And finally, Afton and I at a party at Chuck e Cheese. Not sure what Afton was doing??? Very funny though!

Hey Shari--I found your blog! It's Stephanie Ryan, btw. We went to Bass Pro Shop's winter wonderland too. I thought it was cute but I'm sure the kids will like it more when they're older. Anyway, just saying hi.

Oh and PS our blog is marcusandtess.blogspot.com


Quick thoughts

So I'm finally up with the times and have my own blog. You'd think if someone was a "webmaster" that they might be current with a full family history...

Now I'm frantically searching my mind for all those clever things my kids did and all those life changing thoughts that would really help all who read my little blog. Nothing.

Just two quick stories about both kids. Maybe then I can feel at ease knowing that my children's lives are adequately documented.

Jake has always been interested in numbers. He loves to ask random people (fellow shoppers at Wal-Mart, those who happen to stop next to us at a red light, etc) what their address is. Finally Jake discovered his life calling when we went through the Wal-Greens drive thru to pick up a prescription. Jake decided he would like to be the teller asking people for their address to verify their getting the correct prescription. We are in the process of getting him a store job application right now.

Afton has profound moments when I realize just how fast she is growing up. This week she saw a little girl walking with just her mom. She pointed at the little girl and said "Ohhh, that little girl doesn't have a brother." Let's just hope she always appreciates that she has a big brother!
