Got Some Great Baby Time!

Danica, Dylan, and Tanner came up for a visit this last week and we were able to have lots of fun baby time at home and out and about. Thank you for making the trek up Danica!!

Merideth enjoys playing with the boys and their toys! For whatever reason we did not get many pictures of the babies...maybe we were playing too much! Dylan and Tanner are now 6 months old!!!


We took Danica to bingo night at Crossings, it was fun for all, Samuel was the only one who got a "bingo" and picked out a Gamestop card for his prize.





Grandpa and Grandma joined in the fun as well.



Rumble celebrated his birthday with some furry friends. These aren't the furry friends, they are our neighbors and good friends!




Maggie, another good friend got to come to the game. Danica also got to go to the game without Dylan and Tanner, two nights out while she was here!!!
A fun week!

What to do when it is SOOOO cold outside?!

It has been super cold here in OK, with a couple nice days in between, and here are some things we have been up to. These are a bit overdue, we just got our computer back from the computer doctor who extracted yet another virus!

Make a solar system diorama!!

Find everything pink in our closet and put them on our bodies!!! (to match the cast of course)


Make bird feeders to feed our cold feathered friends.


The finished product before our furry bunny friend got to them while they were drying outside.



We did end up at the zoo one day when the temperature was supposed to reach 50!



Stay warm out there!!!

Sweet Little Merideth Breaks Her Arm!!!

She fell off the couch last night, verified on x-ray that she had a broken radius this morning, and got a beautiful pink cast put on this evening...what a long 24 hours! Merideth was a trooper through it all. Our first broken bone but she couldn't be more excited to go to school tomorrow and tell all her friends what happened and let them sign her cast!

Ice Skating!

We all went ice skating at a rink in downtown OKC. The kids were determined to skate by themselves and we were so surprised at how great they did! It was a lot of fun with no major melt downs.

Samuel's style was a little more running-like.




Blessed Christmas!

Merry Christmas! We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! We had a fabulous Christmas with Grandma Paula, Grandpa Taylor and Grandma Taylor here in OK. Samuel and Merideth were very excited this year which made it tons of fun.
After Christmas Erin and the kids drove to MO to be with the Merideth side of the family for some super fun times too!


Christmas Eve on our way to church.


Grandparents and grandkids at church.


Christmas morning.


Samuel got Merideth the "walking dog", what Merideth wanted more than anything!



Merideth got lots of animals for Christmas; horse, dog, cat, elephant, etc!
Our favorite memory from this year is from Christmas Eve when we were putting cookies and milk out for santa and Merideth took baby Jesus from one of our nativity scenes to put on the cookie plate, "so santa would remember what Christmas is about."


We had a big Christmas lunch, before the Thunder game that evening, with Marc's Uncle Mike and his wife Kathy, and Jon and Jessica.





Mike and Kathy.




This silly hats came from poppers that Grandma Taylor found.






Now here we are in Missouri with Papa and Maudy. Here they are with their grandkids!



The Whitlocks!





Lots of uncle time, thank you!



Merideth needed lots of hugs from her cousins!



Happy New Year too!
