Snow Day!

We were sooo happy to have a snow day!!! It was the most wonderful day home with my kiddos. I decided to take some pics of our day.
The boys were lazy in their lounging clothes watchin' a movie in their room. They ALWAYS do this! EVERY. SINGLE. DAY!




They love playin' games on their ipod touch!

And then..there are the two littles...
And where are these two off to??(They were walking arm in arm)


They always have their hands on each other.

Love the hair girlies!

Yep, they do EVERYTHING together. :-)

I LOVE this picture. Melt my heart!(Doug asked me if Lily was wearing make-up..nope.)

And this one, too!
While our "Bubbas" were at basketball practice..we hung out some more!
These two are ALWAYS doing this...following each other around...
giggling..and looking for each other.

They hit the jackpot! Suckers! Hurry grab as many as you can before Momma comes!
Lily LOVES to climb up on the fire place...so LJ just has to join her best bud!


I have no words...

Yep, this was just one day!
Everywhere I go, it seems that someone says..."Wow, honey...you have your hands full!" Doug and I look at one another and laugh. We do have our hands full. It isn't always easy. There are days when we're tired. When nothing seems to go right. When our house is a disaster...even though we've cleaned up the toys several times that day. When the laundry piles seem to reach the sky. When we wonder if we've even had an adult conversation....But...then..we thank GOD we have children that wear us out...that we have children that love us even when things go wrong, that we have 4 beautiful babies making the house a disaster, and that we had LOTS of fun playing with those little ones making the laundry dirty...and our conversations...are NEVER BORING!
I'm so thankful God CHOSE me!!!!!

I just did a post about our future child and said that if it's a girl I wanted to name her Lola. "Emy" commented and sent me to your blog so I could see your Lola. She is ADORABLE! As are the rest of your children :) Just wanted to pop over and tell you you have a lovely family!
