Snow day = Art day

We have had our share of snow this year. In order to pass the time and avoid cabin fever, we had to get creative. Leyton and I pulled out the paints and had a party!

A few of our masterpieces

Exhausted after a day of extreme painting

Cheesing for the camera

Take my picture

Oh, yeah, we stayed in our pajamas all day. That is what snow days are for, right?

Redding's Birthday Celebration

Pictures from Redding's birthday!

Better late than never...

The Birthday Boy

Leyton also enjoys the festivities

Leyton needed his own candle to blow out as well

Not too sure about the candle

Ummmm...

No, my Cupcake, Daddy!

Enjoying a few of his presents

Ooh, Leyton scored a new camera from Mimi Sharon and Pop

Redding's pre-birthday birthday (Practice Round)

Redding celebrated his birthday 3 times. Once at home with Mimi and Geep (the day before his birthday), once at school with his "friends" (I think the teachers ate all the cupcakes), and once at home with Leyton, Daddy, and Mommy.

These pictures are from his home celebration with Mimi and Geep in attendance...

ENOUGH!

NASCAR...it must be in the genes

Aquarium Time

As previously mentioned, we have an aquarium located 5 minutes from our house. We visit every weekend and the kids love it. Here are a few pics from our latest aquarium excursion...

Mimi and Geep visit!

Mimi and Geep came up for a visit last weekend. The weather was actually nice for a change.

Dennis and I had a great date night. We went to a restaurant in town and had fresh, local oysters and then went out for ice cream. I think we were home by 9:00. We are old.

We are lucky enough to have a great children's museum and an aquarium 5 minutes from our house. We visit them every weekend and this weekend was no exception.

Thanks for the visit Mimi and Geep! We love it when you are here!
