Dadoo's Sweethearts!

Our Dadoo spoils us rotten around here! For Valentine's Day, Dadoo brought Mommy and Anniston beautiful red roses. He's setting the bar high for Anniston's future boyfriends!


Thank you Dadoo! We love you!

Sledding Videos!

Treyson goes down the hill by himself!

Anniston goes down by herself!

We call this the "sled cam"....it was Mommy with both kiddos. As you can see.....our sled got off the beaten path as we slid into 21 inches of snow that was to the side of the path! HA!

Letters to Teddy

On Friday, February 4, 2011 our sweet nephew was born (and Anniston and Treyson's sweet cousin!). Theodore Clarence (named after grandparents), also known as Teddy! He was 2 pounds, 6 ounces and 13 inches long.

Teddy is so special in our hearts. You see, God called him home before we ever really got to know him. We already loved him so much, because our love for him had been growing in our hearts ever since we found out Tracey was pregnant. We are so sad to not be able to know him here on earth, but we also know that heaven just gained a precious baby angel. I am 100% confident that he is in the best of care with Jerry's sister, Leah. All she ever longed for was a baby, and her time here was cut ridiculously short with her precious Kinley. So now, I can only imagine that Leah is rocking and loving on Teddy for Tracey, just as Tracey loves Kinley.
~
We told Anniston and Treyson about Teddy, and that he went to heaven to be an angel for God. We told them that we were going to send Teddy sweet notes and that we had to fly them up to heaven with balloons because the mailman doesn't deliver to heaven. I wrote down what the kids told me to say.
Treyson's is spoken from a 2 year old, huh?!! So sweet....
We drove out to Razorback Stadium to release the balloons.....we know that Razorback Stadium is directly below heaven, so this was a quick route to heaven!! HA!








































We love you sweet Teddy. You are a beautiful little boy, and you keep a good watch over your Mommy, Daddy, big sister Kinley, and big brother Will!










Snow Angel Family

So, the title kind of gives this away, but we decided to use our front yard to document our sweet little Snow Angel family!! We did this on Friday as we finished sledding. From left to right it goes Mommy, Anniston, Treyson, and Dadoo!

Sledding Fun!

We have ALL had so much fun sledding down our street this week. We are all so happy that Mommy bought a sled back in December too! I think we'll get one or two more for next year. We have such daredevils, and they want to sled by themselves anyway!
~
Treyson and Mommy going down head first! Now making the trek back up!
Somebody decided to catch a ride!

There goes Anniston and Dadoo!




Now Mommy's turn with Anniston!




Treyson waited so patiently in a mound of snow for his turn!




Now Treyson's turn with Dadoo!





So cute!







Now Anniston and Treyson catching a ride up the hill














Last sled of the day....Anniston and Treyson by themselves



So stinking cute



Weeeeeeeeeeeee!















Baking Helpers!

Last night as dinner was ending and I started to clean up plates, I showed the kids a box of Brownie mix and they started cheering (they are just like their Dadoo!). So, the kids finished up dinner, then ran upstairs to get their "baker outfits"!




Mmmmm....licking the beaters is our favorite part! (Dadoo gets the bowl)












Playing in the snow!

Here are some random pictures of various snow outings:
~
Treyson being silly! Love, love, love his laughing face!
Flying high with Dadoo!


Tasting the snow.....yum!







Getting ready to go on a piggy back ride with Mommy:





Of, course Anniston wanted to do the same thing!









They started out making snow angels, but it quickly turned into burying themselves in the snow!






What it looked like the first time Jerry opened up the garage door!


Jerry snow-blowing the car!















There are tons and tons of pictures that we've got from the snow. MaMa (Amy's mom) suggested we make books for both of the kids with pics from all of the snow. They keep saying this is one for the record books. I think that might be a great idea!
