Instagram Friday....
The sun finally came out on Friday afternoon so we headed to the park. The kids had a blast riding bikes, practicing on the Rip Stick and playing with friends.
I love Instagram!! Makes pictures so much more fun!

It's official....
We have no need for a crib mattress anymore. Joshua has been up multiple times during the night for quite a while and we're getting pretty tired of it. When Sophia was about his age and having sleep problems, moving her into a twin bed almost fixed the problems immediately. So, we decided it was time for Joshua to move too. A friend was selling this bed and almost brand new pillow top mattress, so we bought it and put it up the same night! He has not woken up during the night at all since moving into the big bed. Yeah!!! Mike and I are enjoying full nights of sleep again!

Making Progress....
The house looks SO much more open. A lot of work left to do, but it's moving in the right direction!

Some new favorite things....
It took me awhile to get into Pinterest....but WOW!! There are so many incredible ideas. http://www.pinterest.com You get hooked so easily!! I've done so much more cooking since I've come across so many great recipes. And the craft ideas are never ending!!! This was a great idea for organizing kid art supplies. A bucket--$2.50. Bucket Jockey--$7. And for less than $10 I was able to clean up and organize all their art supplies!! The only things not in the bucket are crayons and markers!
What a cutie this morning. Of course...that was an hour ago. Now he's a wild man playing naked in his room refusing to get dressed. Good thing I captured the sweet moment when I did!!

And the walls came down....

Christmas Trip....
We planned a very fun trip to Dallas as part of the kids' Christmas present! Brenda and her family drove to the ranch on Tuesday. We showed them around the ranch and played...and on Wednesday we headed to Dallas. Girls were headed to the American Girl Doll store and boys were going to Lego Land. Then, we were all meeting up for one night at Great Wolf Lodge. Such a fun trip!!!
4D movie at Lego Land....



Outside the American Girl Doll store. The girls were SO excited!!! Both girls were wearing matching clothes with their dolls.
Lunch at the Bistro. These people really know how to "work" the doll thing. Little doll highchairs, little doll tea cups and saucers!

After shopping....wow!! You could spend a TON of money in that store very quickly.
Great Wolf Lodge....what a fun place!! They have a MagiQuest where you use magic wands throughout the hotel to unlock different secrets and solve the clues. Our kids were more interested in just waving the wands and making things open and talk than they were about solving clues.
Christmas at the Ranch....
We headed to the ranch the day after Christmas. Mom was up there celebrating with Mary and Brad. We opened presents about 30 min after we arrived! :)
The Charlie Brown Christmas Tree....
Gramma with our 3.
Christmas Eve and Day....
We spent Christmas Eve with Shirley. Everyone was there except Brian and Kyle. They were both sick at home. We were able to snap a few pics....it's very hard to get 5 kids together at the same time!!!
