White Christmas??

I can't believe it's Christmas Eve!! We began our celebrations last night by going to Darian's house in Pryor, the kids were all so excited! Cooper wasn't really sure what was up, but he was SUPER excited to see all the gifts and get to play with his cousins. We had lots of fun hanging out!
We had planned to go to Dennis's cousin, Kristine's house in Claremore after leaving Darian's today, but "the weather outside is frightful", so we headed on home and it's a good thing, too. A few of my family members were going to join us for Christmas Eve service, coming from 45 minutes away in good weather and opted not to do that, which was also a wise decision. We are staying home, not going to risk getting out in the slush tonight. This isn't exactly the type of white stuff we'd like to see at Christmas...prefer just snow without the ice!

Enjoy our Christmas Train pictures and Rains Christmas pictures...more to come!

Icy Day

Cooper and I have been hanging out here trying to keep warm today. Usually, he'd be at Kid's Day Out and I'd be running my errands. However, we got some lovely wintry mix yucky stuff last night, which meant schools are cancelled as well as KDO and I feel safer not trying to get out in it anyway. I'm just glad I remembered to get the Coop some milk yesterday! Dennis did go to work, but I'm expecting him home early for a change. He's bringing home his welder so we can use the generator in case of ice like we had last year that knocks out the power.

I took this picture of Cooper today, trying to get into the gifts that I have strategically stuffed behind the big chair since there is very little room under out 30 inch tree (which I will have to take a pic of for you, it's pretty cute, even have my smaller gifts under it) that is sitting on the counter. I guess he really likes the paper.
