It's Snowing!

It has been really cold the last while and the snow has been falling! We are having so much fun!
Talon having fun in the yard! This is how hard it was snowing at one point this morning....we could hardly see the neighbors!
The kids went out and built a big snowman. The previous snow was too dry, but this snow is perfect snowman building material!
The cute little birdhouse in the back yard
Abi having fun in the snow...you can't tell the difference between the yard and the street!

Happy 15th Birthday Talon!

I can't believe we have a 15 year old! Talon had his 2 cousins for the weekend and went golfing, played games till the wee hours of the morning and laughed till they ached!
Talon pretty excited about some new tools from G'pa and G'ma G.
Talon's Golfing cake!
Blowing out the candles....hope all your wishes come through, Talon!

The Joy that Maggie Jo brings us!

So, I go to Costco and buy a 4 pound bag of powdered sugar for some cakes that I needed to decorate. I get it home and head out for some more errands. Talon comes home from school and has a surprise waiting for him! Maggie is the only one that can jump over the fenced area and make herself at home when we are gone, therefore we know who does the damage.......
Across the table...... Over the chair.......
Oh, let's go across the stove......
In the living room and find some more stuff to chew up.......
Back into the kitchen where you started and get into the garbage that is under the sink.....
Talon took pictures for proof, and cleaned it all up before I got home. Thank you Talon! Oh, and Thank you Maggie Jo for teaching us how to hold back from beating you to death!!!

Thanksgiving 2008 at G'pa and G'ma Ross' house!
Talon & Abi (Does anyone know how hard it was to get them both to smile at the same time. They were fighting and bickering the whole time....believe me it does't get any easier the older they get!!) Abi, Talon, Slade & Kadence with little Zeke in there too! The cousins on the Ross side of the family.
Aunt Sue, G'ma Dee and G'pa Ross getting ready for breakfast the day after Thanksgiving!
Now, this looks like a disaster waiting to happen. Is Kadence really trying to help Marcus? These are the second cousins having fun together......
