Movie Night

I caught up on movies in Vicki's room tonight.  Bella and Tank joined me.  They were soo cute. They can get along when they want to.....Tank likes his space, but Bella is a TOTAL cuddle bug! I just adore her!!!! She is completly mine when Vicki is gone!!!







Afternoon Shooting

Ty target shoots all the time. Just a normal afternoon.......

Tank Likes The Melt Down

Tank had been sleeping when i was outside shoveling. When he came outside he seemed all confused on the sidewalk not having snow on it.  His expressions on his face were making me laugh.  I wasn't sure if he was saying "thanks" or "it's about time!!!!" He is so funny!!!! But he did seem very happy to not be walking in the white stuff anymore!!!


Cabin Fever Funnies


From all the posts i have seen on Facebook this had me laughing.  This doesn't apply at my house. My boys are awesome and i am having a great Christmas vacation do over or Snowcation or whatever you want to call it, but this just was hilarious from what i have seen from what other moms are complaining about!!!  

Bella After Snow Time

Someone gets just a lil tired after running around in the snow!

Fickle The Snowman

We have named our snowman Fickle because of the wardrobe changes!!!  
Desert Fickle

Southern Fickle

House Divided Fickle

Don't Melt Fickle!!!!!



Thursday Night Bed Buddies


These were my bed buddies last night.....not really much else to say....the picture was taken around 9 pm......they move around....sometimes they get annoyed with each other which means they wake me up and i have to solve their differences and sleep in between them and give them each the same amount of attention.....Leah howls her annoyance at them from my bathroom.....Jasper's tennis ball fell under the bed and he couldn't get it....i had to crawl under and get it after turning on the light.....it all started around 2 am.....but i still love them......and we will do it all again.......eventually Vicki will be home and Bella won't be in the mix and it won't be so crazy trying to get a full nights sleep......we will do this all again tonight......

Snow Day Breakfast Buffet

Snow Days should always be started with a VERY yummy breakfast!!!!  

Snow Day 2

I was making funny faces for The Dude in Cammies who happened to be in the desert while we were having snow days.....yep, he was just a bit jealous....me out in the backyard with my phone taking selfies in the snow and sending them to him who was standing outside in the desert with nothing but sand and rocks....

Jasper's Snow Day

Jasper is like a puppy on snow days! He just LOVES it!!!

Bella In Her Coat

Bella is not too thrilled this white stuff.  She isn't too happy about wearing a coat either!  I think she actually hates wearing her coat more!  She is sooo funny when i put her coat on.  She just sits there and than just barely walks in the snow, but the when i take her coat off of her she runs all over the place in the snow! She still doesn't like the snow and as soon as she is done sniffing around and going potty she runs straight for the door to come inside!

Dogs & Snow Angels

We had perfect snow for snow angels!!! The dogs were like making it almost impossible for me to make a snow angel though!!! They were being sooo funny! I should have filmed it! They were being a possesive! i was begining to think i might even get peed on! Next time i will be sure to lock them up before i make snow angels or just make them out in the front yard!!! But it was funny as they took turns stepping on me and licking me! Those silly dogs!

Milkshakes, Swimming, & Sun Roof Open


Hockey Gear & Snow Days

Yes, hockey gear comes in handy on snow days! Ryan wears it when he plays outside with his friends! He says it is great when you are kneeling down making snowballs or hiding behind something when your friends are throwing snowballs at you! He's a creative kid!

OJ Cravings

Ty decided he wanted OJ.  I asked everyone what they wanted when i knew we had snow coming and i would NOT be able to go to the store!!!  I also was NOT going to go to the store the day before the snow was coming when it was going to be crazy so i went and got everyone's favorite things a few days out of the snow flake fallings.  This morning Ty decides he is craving orange juice.  He NEVER drinks orange juice! I usually have OJ in the fridge because Vicki drinks it but she has been gone and so when she finished the last of it before she left i didn't buy anymore.  Lucky for Ty i keep some in the freezer for my
orange chicken! So i was able to make him some old school orange juice! He was a happy guy! He informed me that he now really likes orange juice and to add it to my grocery list because he is going to join Vicki in the OJ department. 

Island Cat Don't Poop In The Snow!

Tank is clearly not a fan of snow! We brought him here from Okinawa. He was born and raised in the tropics, a truly tropical cat. He will NEVER be a fan of the white stuff that falls from the sky! When it is time for him to go potty he takes the path with the least amount of snow. He has discovered that there is no snow under the car. Under my car is now Tanks new potty spot....no one has ever said Tank was dumb!!!




Funny Faces 1-29-2014

Sending funny faces to the Mitten Man on my Snow Day!

Snow Ice Cream

i have a perfect place out front of perfect snow!!! I took my bowl outside and made some yummy snow ice cream!!! I made a couple different flavors. Soooo easy, sooo yummy!










My Snow Angel

Ryan was having the same problems I was having when he was making his snow angels! The dogs were all over him too! We were cracking up! I guess there is just something about us lying on the ground outside that gets them all riled up!

A Blanket Of White!

We woke up to a blanket of white! Everything just looked so peaceful and beautiful! When it started snowing last night it just didn’t stop and just kept snowing and snowing! The big dogs had fun running thru it! Bella had fun for a minute but then she just started shaking from the cold!  Tank was NOT happy at all about walking out in the snow to go potty! This is DEFINITELY a SNOW DAY!!!












Good Morning From NC!!!

Good Morning from Eastern North Carolina!!! Sending a good morning picture to The Dude in Cammies!

Which Wich

Which Wich has finally opened! Vicki has been excited for this quite awhile! They have these in California and she loves these sandwich shops! We decided to check it out o our way to the movies tonight. I wasn’t hungry but Ty and Ryan were starving.  They said it was just okay. They liked the whole ordering your sandwich by picking what you wanted on the bag and all but they were both just like “eh, it’s just like Subway”. Well, Subway is a lot cheaper! So, I’m glad they didn’t become attached! And I am glad they are fine with sandwiches at home!!!

Jasper Snoring On The Couch

I think Jasper is really missing Ed. He knows he isn't allowed on the couch! I found him up on the couch sound asleep. He was out cold and snoring!!! When i called out his name he gave me this guilt look and than this great big yawn and than just stared at me like 'please let me stay up here, it is soooo comfy and i am soooo sad!!! Please!!!!' Man, he can really guilt trip me! So, i went and sat next to him for a little while.....i am such a softie....







Road Trip Day Three

Ed lost a bet with Vicki on a math thingy so he has to wear her stripe socks today! They checked out of their hotel this morning in Oklahoma and made it to Flagstaff Arizona by nightfall! They have been zipping across America!!! They stoped in Albequerque this afternoon to see my family for a few hours and were even able to see my Grandma Mary! They had a late lunch with my Dad and Michelle and Mary and Ed said they had delicious Mexican food!
