January and February 2015

2015 has been off to a fun but COLD start!  After settling back into normal live after Christmas and New Year's, we didn't have a lot going on.  Both girls were treated to their very first real hair cut and loved it.  We also treated both puppies to a spa day at the DIY Dog Wash place.  As you can see, they loved it too.

Tom and I celebrated our 6th Wedding Anniversary with a nice dinner out and Valentine's Day came and went.  The girls had parties at both schools and collected more Valentine's than any kid needs!  

As the weather started to get colder, we finally put our outdoor fireplace to good use and had a night full of S'mores with friends.

Sunday night after Valentine's Day, with Tom heading out of town for important meetings, the first big Snow/Ice Storm struck Nashville.  And it was a good one.  We woke up Monday morning to a light dusting of snow....on top of a thick layer of ice.  Perfect for "sledding".  So with Tom gone, I had to enlist the help of our amazing neighbors to sled with my kiddos!  The storm lasted for 4 days and school was out ALL WEEK.  The girls loved it and we even got some actual snow on Day 3 which made for even more sledding and even some snowman building.  Here are some action shots of the week.

This one is a daredevil!
Thank goodness for good friends across the street
The girls even got to enjoy their very first sleepover.  Ava Grace came over this past weekend for a fun girls night!
PJs and Frozen to end the week
The weather is starting to get a little better but we still have some ice and snow on the ground.  We had 24 hours of rain also which means Nashville is just a slushy wet mess!  

That is about all for now....hopefully it will only get warmer from here b/c we are ready for some dry outside play time!

Here are some videos of the sledding fun!

Sobe and Miss Angela were the first to go down the big sledding hill...she loved every second...so did Miss Angela!

Mr. Marty took Hudson down the big street on day one and then she insisted on going by herself.  Both the girls were in heaven!

That is about all I have for now.  As always, here are some more pictures of our past couple months!
