Cooper started a new school this week – and is loving it.. abby and emily are so happy to be back to school to see their friends too.. I just can’t believe how many “snow” days we’ve had.  Very glad I’d scheduled vacation time in and didn’t have to shuffle too many things.  I’m headed to Augusta, GA on Friday (hoping to get out before we get hit with more snow!)..  I have a full weekend while I am there and can’t fit any more sessions in..  and then back to work on Monday.. very much looking forward to it..

Tom decided to take cooper on a guys weekend – he’d had a rough week.. they drove down Saturday morning to Greenville, SC to my parents house and all the guys went to a Monster Truck show!  Just what Coop needed!

remember what last Saturday morning looked like here – snow everywhere, ice everywhere in NC.. i was a nervous wreck until the arrived safely in SC..

he was soooo excited..

The girls and I stayed home – played a bunch of games, memory, pretty pretty princess, connect four… Emily, the two year old, killed Abby and I in pretty pretty princess AND connect four.. I was trying too!!

a tea party.. emily said “yust the custs”  and i interpreted it to be – “just the crusts” .. yep!
