Happy Birthday Puppy Sunny!

What a wonderful six years it has been. Happy birthday to our first baby. We love you puppy Sunny.

Teddy Bear Thursday - 23 Months

Twenty-three months. The background of Teddy Bear Thursdays is changing. We are getting Austin ready for his big boy room, slowly but surely. He started napping in his new room on Sunday and we have had three successful naps so far. Hopefully he will be doing all of his sleeping in his new room within the next two weeks.

Austin is doing some changing also. He seems to have sprouted again and is now over 36 inches tall. He is so verbal and is letting his opinion be known on pretty much everything. He is still our sweet little guy, but with a little added stubbornness.

Congratulations Are In Order

Our favorite coach, that would be Dean, won his 100th basketball game on Wednesday night. The team was down by nine at half and came back to win by six.

We are so proud of him and can't wait to celebrate the next win.

We love you Coach!

Unexpected Vacation

Thanks to a crazy winter storm, the whole family was able to stay home and play for four days. This picture is the ice covering our driveway after the first wave of wintery mix. It was at least an inch and a half thick on the whole driveway.

Austin and Dean trying to clear some of the ice. They were not very successful. It was too thick.

Austin in his first sheet fort. He loved it and so did his hair.

Sunny on the other hand was less than thrilled.

Here is day two of winter weather, actual snow. Sunny loved this.

Austin was not excited to be outside when the snow was actually coming down.

Our driveway after the snow covered the ice that was already there. We were not going anywhere.

Much happier when the snow was on the ground and not falling in his face.

The snow king!

What a great time we had. Hopefully this Wednesday brings another surprise vacation and we can play in some more snow.
