Snow Day...

A snow day for the Hill Family...never thought I would say such a thing...but we had one! I can't express our excitement (mine) when the rain changed over to snow. And it happened fast and furious. Our rain turned to snow and then to massive cotton ball snow all within an hour...what a sight to watch! Jason and I set up chairs in the garage to watch the girls playing outside. The screams from not only our girls...but from every kid in the neighborhood was such a great sound...not to mention mine and Jason's laughs of glee! It's not something we ever experienced growing up in Rockport!

This was all early in the evening. My camera took AWFUL pictures, it's like it protested being outside in snow! As of tonight, I have ordered a new, much better, Canon, that better like cold temperatures! Oh...and two Julia Child Cookbooks. I'm looking forward to the later!

And might I add, poor Jason. While these pictures were taken last weekend. Early in the morning, tomorrow, we hare supposed to have freezing rain. Poor Jason, he is out in the field and I just can't imagine what it would feel like being pelted with those icky things! 

I had a pretty blah week since Jason has been gone. Since my rib injury, I haven't been able to work out...at ALL for almost 2, maybe 3 months (It has been since December). Then try throwing yourself back into it...basically, I am so glad Jason is not here to see my granny walk! Not only do I moan and groan at every move of my body...I woke myself up changing positions in my sleep last night...multiple times.

Now, since I have started this blog, many days ago...(I couldn't finish it because my fingers were too sore from lifting weights to even type)...I have gotten my new camera. For those that don't know, I had this exact same camera many months ago...but on the first day of school for the girls, I left it in the car when it was storming and we were trying to run into the garage. In the excitement of getting home from the first day of school, escaping the thunderstorm AND trying to shut the garage door...I forgot to lock my car. That night, in the pouring rain, my awesome camera was stolen. You can bet that won't happen again. Don't worry, I still like where we live. 

Anyways, so I have my new camera...or the same...now! What a difference. I missed these great pictures without the attempt at "fixing" them before they go up.

So here you go, some good pictures of the girls. And let me tell you...I just LOVE taking pictures again! You have been warned!

Anyone remember these fun things...I know you do! Well, I am getting really annoyed with the darn things.  

My BEAUTIFUL Ava. I just love her freckles and missing teeth. One day, they will come back.  

My sweet, sweet Layla. She thinks she has a wiggly tooth...really...it's just a lie because I'm tired of wiggling her teeth 10x a day to find a wiggly one. I know, I'm an awful Mom! 

And you know who these beautiful girls are. Guess what they are dressed up for!

Stella turned SEVEN! 

AND Mabel turned ONE!

Did you know that Stella AND Mabel have the SAME BIRTHDAY! More on that later. And what Mabel put me through on her FIRST birthday. Think nightmares.
