Let It Snow

Well we couldn't believe our eyes last Saturday morning when we woke up to snow. It's the first snow we've had in central MS since Jan. 2002! We woke the kids up and took them to the window. Olivia looked out the window and said (with no excitment) "ice". We said no it's snow. She said (still no excitment) "snow". They were finally excited when they went outside to play in it. Peyton was at his cousin's house where they had more snow than we did. They even made snow ice cream!

Christmas at Papaw and Mamaw's House

The kids had a great time at Davis' parents house Christmas morning. With our four kids and Douglas' four kids it was quite a scene. Ava handled all of the excitment like a champ. Every we year instead of just reading the Christmas story from the Bible we act it out. The kids love doing it. This year Peyton was Joseph, Ethan was a wise man, Olivia was an angel, and Ava played the part of baby Jesus.

New Look for Chinese New Year

I updated the look of my blog for Chinese New Year and Vietnamese Tet. It's not exactly what I wanted but it's OK. Chinese New Year/Tet is Feb. 7. I promise I will update with new pictures soon.

Christmas Morning

We had a great time Christmas morning. The kids were up at 7 a.m. We had to wake Ava up at 8. They were so excited about their presents. Ava was excited about he paper and boxes!! Peyton was extra sweet that morning. He let the little kids open their gifts first and got excited with them about was they received. The green-eyed monster never showed up with Peyton. We were so proud of him. He growing up so fast.

Christmas With Granddaddy

My dad came over Christmas Eve to celebrate Christmas with us. Ava let him hold her without a fuss. We told him he should feel honored. She doesn't let just anyone hold her. The kids loved their Christmas gifts and spending time with their Granddaddy!
