It is hard to believe she is going to be 6! I remember when she was born thinking I could not imagine the day she would walk and talk! HA Her class!
Sign in front of the school!

Making a wish...of course we had pink cupcakes with Hannah Montanna plates (although Mallory actually picked out the plates! ha!)

Milk and Cookies with Santa!

The Girls with Mrs. Claus!

We took the girls to milk and cookies with santa this year in Brookhaven. They had a a blast! It was a little overwhelming due to the crowd...but the girls thought it was great! I didn't get any pics of them with santa because by the time we got our turn it was sort of rushed...ha but i did get some cute pics before and during the wait! Mallory making her reindeer food with the elves!

sweet Mallory...she loves this Santa..It was my grandma's

Close up of Mallory before we left.

Makayla..guess something was funny

Mallory did something that tickled Makayla!

Thanksgiving in Oakvale

Brad took these pics of the girls! I forgot to take any so this is all I have of Thanksgiving!

SNOW IN BOGUE CHITTO!

We had anywhere from 4 to 8 inches of snow reported in Bogue Chitto Thursday! This is the second time this year..It also snowed this much January 18th. AMAZING! I have never seen this much snow down here in the south much less twice in one year! I unfortunately had to work so I did not get to stay and play with the kids, but Brad's office lost power so they closed for the day! OF COURSE the schools closed as well...we don't know what to do with all this down here in the south...give us a hurricane and we can prepare but a winter storm warning!!! What's that? haha Brad took some beautiful pictures but not but a few of the kids! so sorry but most are landscape pics and all in black and white! ha I forgot to change the camera settings after the last time I used it! What's even crazier is that there is still snow on the ground Friday at 11:00! Crazy!
