A Serious Case of Bed Head

Snow Day #2: This is how I found Delanie when I went to get her out of her crib this morning.

Dear Hair Gods,

Can you please be a little nicer to me in the future?

XO,
Delanie

Sledding!

As promised, when Daddy got home from work today, he took the girls "sledding". The first video is more like a "sledding blooper" courtesy of Emme. He even pulled the three of us, I regret that we don't have any video of that.

Snow Day

We were hit with 11 inches of snow yesterday/last night. We are officially snowed in, or at least the girls and I. We are waiting for Jason to get home for our big adventure in the snow, but I decided to take the girls out for a little taste and they LOVED it.

TRUE LOVE

The best part of making cupcakes....

IS licking the beaters!

Emme had a fun time "helping" us when we made cupcakes for her birthday last week.

More Partying Pics..

Emme completed her birthday celebrations with an afternoon at the Children's museum with friends and family on Saturday. It was a pretty chaotic day at the museum, but we had a good time. We took a few turns on the carousel and explored the dinosaur exhibit.

Up Close and Personal

Emme's School Celebration

Emme celebrated her bday at school today. She and I made cupcake shaped sugar cookies and decorated them yesterday for her to share with her preschool friends. They don't like you bringing in anything too messy, so we had to be creative. (The cake in the pictures is fake). It was my/our first time making sugar cookies from scratch and I think they turned out pretty cute.

*Thanks Shannon for the idea!

My "Claim to Fame"

A friend of a friend emailed me on Facebook a few months ago to tell me I was in Parents Magazine. I had written in about an article on Nashville I read while we were there in September visiting my brother. We took the author's advice and ate breakfast at a restaurant called the Pfunky Griddle. Too bad they didn't include the cute picture I submitted of us in front of the restaurant. I had to share this with all our readers, this may be as good as it gets for a mommy of 2 from Indianapolis!

A New Favorite Link

I added a new link to our favorite's today. Two of the guys Jason and his brothers grew up with are finishing up the final months of their journey to priesthood. John Hollowell was a year younger than Matt at Nativity/Roncalli HS and Jeremy Greis was in Jason's class. They both were gracious enough to co-celebrate with Fr. Pat for Matt's funeral in November, which made his funeral even more meaningful for Jason's family. John and Jeremy both returned to Nativity in the last two weekends c0-celebrate mass and give the homily. We were lucky enough to be present for Jeremy's today. Jason reminded me that they have been blogging about their experiences and I thought I would share it with all of you.
PS-Jason is so hoping to get invited to their ordinations (well, mostly the after parties)...we'll keep you posted.
