From snow to spring...

Last week Noah's school took some Spring pictures. They're cute (of course) even if they did comb his hair a little too far back. :)

Snow!!

It snowed a few weeks ago...which means that we, of course, bundled up the little man and let him run around outside for a little bit. And when I say "run around", I mean stand in one spot while Daddy pelted him with snowballs. But he had a great time and for days afterwards would go to the window and say "SNOW!" (which was actually 'snow' without the "s"). Here are couple pics.

I'm ready to go, Mommy!

Everyone was outside having a great time.

My mom and I took a quick trip to NC last weekend. The main reason was so that she could talk to some companies about the hill right behind the house. Unless we do something to stabilize it, it's going to wash away. She talked to 3 guys and we're waiting for estimates. Interestingly, all 3 had different suggestions on what to do.

We also did a little shopping and did a few more things in the house - hung some pictures, etc. It was really nice to sleep in every day. :)

Here's me on the Blue Ridge Parkway.

We were on our way to Blowing Rock for some shopping.

The Blue Ridge Mountains - beautiful! Downtown Crumpler. Really.

(The town our vacation home is in.)

So I'm doing pretty good if I post once a month. :)

Noah is now 21 months old and he is saying new words every day - it's so cool. I went to NC for 5 days and when I got back he was saying 'phone' and 'bus'. His favorite phrase lately is "all done", which means he wants to leave the dinner table. Here are a few recent pictures, including one from last weekend when Trevor took Noah to the North Texas Irish Festival!

Frightening leprechaun, but Noah wasn't scared!

Just chillin' in the car...

Do you think this pot holder is too big?
