Aunt Again, Blessed

I was blessed to be an Aunt again...my lil' sister who got married
last year had a lil' boy, and he is so precious.
That makes me 5 on my side of the family and 7 on my husbands
side...wow, I have a lot of lil' ones calling me "Aunt". <3

My lil' sisters baby shower
we gave her for the lil' man.
 
Lil' man is almost ready to
come see the world.
 
Baby girl wanted to hold him,
awe, so sweet!

Family Field Trip

I'm not far from my family here where we are working/parked
at in Oklahoma, so I can go visit them from time to time. :-D
A few weeks ago we met up with my sister and her family and
took the kiddos to the Oklahoma Aquarium, we had a blast!

Love my sister so very much
"The girls"

I think the sharks were their all
time favorite thing...

Sweet lil' cousins...

Kiddos had a good time...

Blessings Over Flowing

"Remember that your ultimate goal is for your
children to grow up secure in your LOVE,
strong in their FAITH, and with sound
CHARACTER." ~Gary Chapman

Back in late November into early December we were getting so much
rain in Louisiana and I been wanting to take Christmas pictures outside
but it looked like it would never stop raining or dry up enough......
Finally the sun came out a few days and I got my pictures.
So I put my cowboy boots on right along with the kiddos and my love
and we hopped into the truck, drove in 4 wheel drive to the barn out in
my husband's grandpa's field. ;-D

This one by the barn
 
Things kiddos will do behind your back
 
My love and I

Look at our lil' man

My big helper
 
They loved playing on the hay

Couldn't get sweetheart off the hay
 
 Our baby girl

Our kiddos on the tractor
 
My sweet boot babies
 
 
Gave them each a candy cane, set up the tripod, and after 45min. and
about 50 pictures later, I had some sweet memories to enjoy forever. They
did so well and I was very proud of them, loved all my pictures I got that day.

Enough Snow to Last a Lifetime

I think after three snow falls, pipes freezing twice, sewer hoses busting,
and washer backing up in camper because of a froze pipe.....I THINK
WE HAD ENOUGH of this northern weather. ;-D 
One thing good about it, Oklahoma is almost out of drought which they
have been in for OVER two years....BUT, they still praying for MORE
snow and we do have some coming next week, so here we go again!!!
 
Our first snow back in early January
was a BLAST, got all bundled
up and played for hours.
 
Made snow angles...
 
Rolled snow balls...
 
Our second snow we had sleds
and had a blast with that.
 
We just had to watch out for
things in our way...
once you get going "look out"!
(See our camper?)
 
SO, the third time it snowed...
we didn't even go play.
But there is still piles of it in
parking lots all over town.
