last ice pics

I was showing Chris all the pics tonight as I was getting ready to post them. He really liked them all but when I got to this one he said..You took that? Thanks sweetie! No my imaginary running partner did! I guess I have two favorites! I am so glad I took my camera with me!! Maybe I will start doing this more often. I can just imagine what my two running partners would say when I show up at 5 am camera in hand! Some how I don't think it will be "CHEEEEEESE"! For some odd reason I don't think there is much in Lake City to take pics of either. LOL

Ok..I drank some coffee tonight so I posted lots of new pics so make sure you scroll down or click on the new titles to your right to see all the new pics! :)-

Ice pics

This is my favorite picture I took yesterday.

Good thing none of the branches or ice fell on me as I ran through here! YIKES!

Ice Ice Baby

Most of you know about the terrible ice storm we got this past Tuesday. We are very fortunate and were only without power for 24 hours. Some people still do not have it and it may be 2 weeks before they can. I feel so awful for these families!!
I went on a run Thursday afternoon and took my camera along to take some pics. I know the ice is awful but in a weird way it is really beautiful. Hope you enjoy the pics. It was a great run since I had so much to look at!

A person down the streets yard. Gosh, they have so many trees. I bet they are not going to know where to start with clean up.

Fence row leading to the highway.

Our new cleaning lady

I got this new tiny little vacuum and the girls love it. You can adjust the handle so don't worry I am not bending over the whole time. btw- I love this little sucker too! It has a switch to turn the rollers off so I can go from carpet to hardwood! It has great suction and was only $39!! You can't beat that!
Callie wanted to help me clean her room to make way for her big bed! Pics coming soon...I just have to make her headboard. I think it will be an easy project but who knows!

Look at this hair!! When Cal got up the other morning this is what her hair looked like...I guess she slept really well!!

i running momma

Callie got my headband I wear when running out the other day and wanted to wear it. After I put it on she proceeds to run around the house saying, look at me mom, i running. then she would tell herself "good job". ;)

After her run she needed to refuel with Dora "candy".....shhhh don't tell her but that is actually her vitamin!

She sucks on her Dora "candy" for awhile then eats it! YUCK...who sucks on a vitamin to savor the flavor???

Art

Cailynn loves to draw and write. She has been making little smiley face people since last year in preschool. They are ever evolving and her latest little man puts the biggest smile on my face. How can you not look at that and not smile??

cooking 101

Callie really loves to help me cook dinner at night, actually both girls do! This night we drug out the step stool from the bathroom so she could help! I love how Emmie is hanging out watching her!

Daddy!!!

These pics are adorable! She was cracking up with Chris asking him to do it again and squealing Daddy!! I thought they were sweet and wanted to share.

Blowing everyone a kiss!

Christmas Pics

With Dad reading The Night Before Christmas!

Here they are serving up some ice cream in their Cherry Blossom Market.

We all had a wondeful Christmas! Christmas eve we were outside throwing reindeer food in the yard when we saw Santa flying over! Cailynn was sooo excited and she was the one who spotted him! She immediately ran in the house and said- We better get in bed so Santa can come! I love these days when Christmas is a magical time for them!
We hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas as well! Happy New Year!
