Snow

WE LOVE SNOW!!!  It has been so pretty this year.  I even got a few days off of work thanks to the bad roads.  Nothing better than watching the snow from inside my cozy house in front of the fireplace.

This is the day before the snow.  It was around 50 degrees!

The next day....

Pacer Game

We took Colt to his first Pacer game.  He is pretty in to basketball right now, and we thought it would be a fun experience.  And who knew, kids don't need tickets at Pacer games!  He loved walking in and seeing how big it was, and he loved all the food!  He was pretty excited about the game, for all of 5 minutes.  Then he wanted to get up and walk around.  So I spent most of the first half walking around the fieldhouse. Finally, at half time, we decided to head home.  Even though we didn't make it through the whole game, we had a blast!

Valentine's Day

No frills this Valentine's Day... we stayed home and had cupcakes and flowers.  It was a really nice time without the long wait for a table at a restaurant.  We loved spending time, just the three of us, at home!

 

Babysitting

Even though we live so close to Josh and Beth, we don't get to get together nearly as often as we would like.  They had some things they needed to take care of, so we go to babysit Emily.  Colt loved going to the basement and picking out some of his baby toys for Emily to play with.  They were best buds all day.  And I am pretty sure Justin liked getting a small taste of what it would be like to have a little girl. 

Date Weekend

Justin and I don't take a lot of time out for ourselves.  Between my work and school and Justin's busy work schedule, we try to spend as much time with Colt as we can.  That said, we want to take some time out for ourselves, so we went to Cincinnati for the night.

We love Cincinnati.  It's a pretty short drive, and we love the suburbs, IKEA and experiencing something new.  We had a great time, just the two of us.

Grandparents Rule

We are so blessed to live close to family.  Colt loves seeing all of his grandparents and we are so thankful that he gets to spend so much time with them!  Now they may occasionally let him stay up past his bedtime, give him all kinds of candy and unintentionally throw us under the bus, but we wouldn't have it any other way.
