Way Back Wednesday and More Snow Pictures..

I guess it's not really "way back" if it was just last year.. but look at this sweet little guy:

He's changed so much in a year.. it's hard to believe! He still loves his cars and choo choo trains so much. Now he talks about them all day long!
*

It's also hard to believe that all of this snow fell LAST WEEK! It's 61 degrees outside right now at 5pm.. Northwest Arkansas may never see another snow fall like this!
Outside our back door

The front of the house.. it's up to the windows!

Drew measured 20" in the front yard!

The dogs didn't know what to think..
Brady was a little more adventurous than Allie.

And thank you to everybody who sent great Valentine's gifts to Brett! I took these pictures today when he discovered his gifts from Gamma Lynn and Gampa Dave. Lala, Nana.. sorry I didn't get any pics with your gifts.. he LOVES them just as much!

First Bloom!

It may be cold and snowy outside, but our lemon tree thinks it's spring in her sunny, warm window! I'm so excited to see the first bloom EVER from our tree :)

On a MUCH colder note, we've had quite a bit of snow this winter! This past event brought ice first and then snow so the roads were pretty bad.. at times we were near blizzard conditions! Brrr! I took these pics when the wind was really blowing:

Last weekend was the first chance that Drew had to be out playing in the snow instead of working.. I was sick with strep throat but the boys headed out to Springdale to meet Angela and Turner. Angela's husband Justin was sick too. Bummer! But I'm glad Drew and Angela had a great time with the kiddos! Thankfully, Angela took lots of pictures!
Let's DO THIS Dad!

This is how you do a double sled :)
*

They're good buddies
*

Zooooooom!
*

My Boys :)
*

What a big boy he is.. so handsome..
*

Gross, Jike!

Super Dad! He had double duty with Turner :)

We're expected to get more snow tomorrow.. Possibly 6-10 inches! Looks like I'll get to go sledding next time. I'm finally over my sickness and feeling 100% better. Whew! You never appreciate how good "well" feels until you're really, really sick :)
