My Birthday?!?!

I was upstairs working on our bedroom the other day when Connor brought me an envelope. I had been working on Christmas cards and had left this one lonely envelope and the stamps (note the stamp at the top of the picture) on the kitchen table. Apparently, he decided to have some fun!

With the most excited look on his face he says, "Mommy, I made you a birthday card!" So I opened it up to find this inside...


All I could think of was wow, where did he come up with a birthday card? So when I opened up the card I found out...


He wanted to keep a few of his birthday cards this year, so I guess he decided that "re-carding" would really work out! Even though my birthday is still over a month away, it was very sweet!

Let it Snow!


We got hit pretty hard this weekend, with snow accumulating up to around 8 inches at our house. Connor was so excited to wake up to the wintery white view out of his bedroom window, he could hardly wait for Brad to get home so they could go play outside. As you can see, both Brad and Connor were very proud of "Frosty"!

Another Blues Game


Connor, Brett, and Kourtney at Rigazzi's




Since Connor loved the hockey game so much, Brad thought it would be fun to get the whole family together to go. We had a great time, we went to Rigazzi's on The Hill, which is always a blast, and got to spend some good quality time with Brad's family since we will be missing them at Christmas this year. And to top it off, they were giving out these wonderful hockey masks at the game, as if my child needed more of a reason to act like a boy!

Making Pizza is Hard Work




Apparently Grandma and Grandpa really wore Connor out when they asked him to help roll out pizza dough at their house. It was not more than 15 min. later that the second picture was taken!

Rock Chalk!


Well I guess we did not need MU to win to get a BCS bowl after all!! I do feel bad for all of those MU fans whose hopes were smashed during the bowl selection shows.....not really, they will have fun at the Cotton Bowl....

Florida here we come!!

Never thought I would say this...

GO MIZZOU! Wow, ok, so I said it. It truly does break my heart to say that, but when KU's BSC bowl berth is on the line, we have to do what we have to do. It does hurt just a little. Ok....maybe I have been hanging around my husband too much!
