Our Visit to the Bass Pro Shop!

We finally decided to take Grant to have his free Santa picture taken at the Bass Pro Shop's Winter Wonderland this weekend. I have never been before...because I thought what could that store possibly have for me??? Boy, was I mistaken!!! It was pretty cool between the waterfall, aquarium, and an assortment of stuffed dead animals. A friend of mine calls it a mini-theme park. Here are the highlights! By the way...there was a lot more to the Bass Pro Shop than guns and camo...they had some nice shoes... :)

Happy Birthday Grantie!

Well, Grant is finally 2! This past weekend we had two separate birthday parties for him and he seemed to have a great time! The first party was with his little friends. They played outside on the mini-bouncy house and then they decorated their own cupcakes.



The next day Grant had a joint party with his cousin Jack. They played with Grant's new train table and even had fun trying to break open a pinata. Opening the presents was also very exciting!



Overall, we had a great weekend!!!

Earliest Snowfall Ever!



Well...yesterday is snowed in good 'ole Houston, TX. Since this is a pretty rare event for us so far south...the question on everyone's mind was...Would school be let out early??? And the answer...Yes it was!!! 11:30 :) I know it is ridiculous that this happens when there is only a half of inch of snow on the ground...but that is the fun part. For about 2 hours it snowed pretty heavily which was a big surprise...but then it snowed lightly for a few more hours. As the title says...this was a snowfall for the record books. It was the earliest snowfall in Houston ever recorded!
