L.O.V.E.

Bracelets

Nate bought me a bracelet when Carson was born. Carson made me a bracelet at school. Both have a special place in my heart, and neither ever come off my wrist!

Snow Days

We have been in this house since Wednesday...all four of us. Our attempts to entertain ourselves:

ACT SILLY




CONVINCE OURSELVES SPRING IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER




FREEZE OUR BOTTOMS OFF




CREATE PILLOW SWIMMING POOLS



HUG IT OUT LIKE EVERY GOOD SUPER HERO SHOULD


GET LOADED...ON COFFEE! (Nate bought me a Keurig. Yay!)

22...64...set, hut!

Ahoy, Matey!

Before

We bought this for $35. Annie Sloan paint, knobs, glass and some TLC are in her future. Stay tuned for "after" pics!

Bounce House in the House (Literally!)

A family with young children can only take so much "cold," right? What to do inside to expend all that energy?! You get creative. (Dare I say desperate!) When Santa gave the boys a Bounce House for Christmas, we had no intentions of blowing the damn thing up in our house, yet we have. We do. Frequently.

The Ross Law Firm, LLC

He's (WE!) done it. He has started his own law firm. This is a very exciting time for us! When Carson asked why Daddy was working from home more often, I told him Daddy started his own business called The Ross Law Firm. Carson replied, "I think his new business should be called HOME WORK since he works from home more." The beauty of owning your own business, Kid.

Nate is licensed in Missouri and Illinois, so hook a brother up if you know of anyone in need of a charismatic, passionate, handsome, honest, hard-working, intelligent, KICK ASS lawyer!

Date Night

Our boys were treated to individual date nights last week. Carson and Nate hit the Blues game with our neighbors while Brady and I enjoyed custard and a balloon artist. While I don't love us separating the boys for "fun" things, both still talk about their "special night." : )

Goofy

What a character?!

Weekend Recap

We spent a fair amount of time in the car this weekend, running errands and visiting family and friends. On Saturday, we hit Greensfelder Park before running errands in Eureka. After a cheese stick, potato wedge and chicken finger lunch on the fly at Walmart (Glamorous, no, but a necessity.), we headed to Luke B's birthday party. The boys loved the hot-dog-dorito-cup-cake-bounce-house-fest. After a lazy Sunday morning and a late church service, we hit Abby's "WinterONEderland" (Love the creativity, Toos! :) party and ate lots of sweets. We wrapped up Sunday with quality time on the couch, snuggling under blankies watching our favorite Disney movie.

Cookie Monster

Masterpieces they created! : )

Warm Weather

I think our "unseasonably warm weather" is our new norm. It was in the 50s last Wednesday, so we spent a good amount of time outside. "Winter" is wonderful!

Wicked

This was my gift to Nate for Christmas. Truth be told, I bought this for myself and took him along, an "us" gift. It was an absolutely fabulous show. Defy gravity and go see the show!

NYE (family-style!)

We were snowed in on New Years Eve; not that we had any dynamic plans for the evening. After hours playing inside, the natives were restless and needed to burn off some energy outside. Hot chocolate awaited the snow men on their return inside!
