Fast and Furious Feb!

February has been fun! It's been cold and rainy but it has been fun! It's been full of basketball! My Madelyn agreed to play...I was glad b/c this was the only time they could ever play together on the same team! However, she was more concerned about cheering than even touching the ball! She even had the bench chanting lets go green team! If you ask me, I think she was in it for the shoes!


Wyatt did really well. He would average about 2 shots per game! His dribbling improved a great deal as well as his defense! He didn't really like the fact that he played point guard at first, but then he decides it might be okay. He says it's kind of like Drew Brees...he decides who to pass the ball too!


We don't Mardi Gras much. The Parade at Children's Cottage is the extent to our Mardi Gras! However, the kids do enjoy the day off! The Jeep died at the last minute, so thanks to the Jones family for letting us borrow Elise's Corvette and a very BIG Thanks to Mrs. Tammy for helping us decorate! And, yes that's Daisy you see in the pics....this was Daisy's first parade! She did really well...she sat in Madelyn and Annabelle's lap and enjoyed the ride!



Another Sneaux Day! I think my kids have seen more snow in their 5 and 6 years of life than I have seen in my 32 years of life! CRAZY! Wyatt talks about a snow day from school like it's nothing! They enjoy it every time! This was Daisy's first snow! She's a big fan of crushed ice, in fact Madelyn taught her to sit with crushed ice....she just kept running all around eating it!



There's my Madelyn below...that's just how she rides...one pant leg up and one pant leg down! She's as carefree as they come! And, that's the last of the very cute umbrella that I found on sale. I accidentally ran over it that morning!

Later on that same night, we had a sleep over for the kids. It was Megyn's first time to spend the night with anyone at all, and she did wonderful. Her mom sent clothes, but she wore the Silvermist night gown nonstop!
And for those of you who don't know, Megyn and Madelyn were born on the same day! And they have both been petite since they were born, and yes, Megyn rides with one pant leg up and pant leg down too! Must have something to do with November 29th!
Very Cute Megyn and Madelyn story!
We're sitting at the bar eating supper and Madelyn says Mom, we got your Valentine's Day Present Today. Megyn says oh what is it, so Madelyn whispers in her ear and Megyn says with such excitement...it starts with a K and it has fire on top! So, I thought and thought and said I just don't know and Madelyn blurps out...It's a Candle...a pink one!



Here's the whole spend the night crew! We only had one mishap! Barrett and Wyatt were in his bunk bed. Wyatt was hanging on to the punching bag while standing in his bed and Barrett pushed him out said he was trying to help him fly! NO broken bones, so we're all good!


Then came Valentine's Day! I made their VDay cards this year. They drew a pic and then I did something with the pick. Dad helped Madelyn draw that Hello Kitty, but Wyatt drew that rocket all by himself!


The kids each had to decorate a box for school. Madelyn's school had a competition for the best box. She got 3rd place and she was excited to see her box on the special table! The bottom bowl opens to insert the cards.... just in case you're wondering!
Here's Mom's Secret Valentine's Day Garden! That's what the kids called it! They helped Dad plant the flowers for me. They all know Tulips are my favorite! I love it!

We enjoyed another LSU basketball game with the Macks this year! It was close one, LSU lost by 1 point!


And as we were walking out, the girls spotted a real cheerleader and she offered to take a pic! How Sweet!

I had to throw in another basketball pic right here of Wyatt. He studied the Tigers as they played ball! And, he also tuned in to ESPN to watch some basketball. The game following the Tiger Basketball trip, he announces that he has some secret moves for his ballgame, but he wouldn't share what they were. All during the game he's shooting from afar, he comes to sit down, Dad says son...drive in a little more to make the shot. He says, I'm trying to make a 3 pointer! I guess that was the secret move!
NEVER GIVE UP HOPE!
My Japanese Magnolia tree was my Valentine's Gift in 2006. 4 years later it finally decides to bloom! Woo Hoo! That deserved a picture on the blog!

It finally warmed up one day! Quick Trip to the Park! Some Picnic Memories!





I'll go ahead and Post a little from March. Since TeeBall is starting soon, I might be later than sooner on posting again!
We enjoyed Literacy Night (Shake Rattle and Read) at the Elementary School. Had to be a Huge Success! The Place was packed!

We closed Basketball Season with Trophies! Thanks to Amanda and Boo for doing a great job coaching!
Congrats to Wyatt for the major improvement from last year! Congrats to Miss Madelyn for trying the sport and sticking it out. She says, I don't really know how to play basketball, but I do know how to play tball. It just never clicked with her! But, she still showed up and continued to support her team!


Zoo Days with the Gauthier's We made a trip to the Lafayette Zoo! We've been going for years, but this was the first time we could all ride together...not car seat or stroller issues! If you haven't ever been, it's worth the ride!

And, there they are! Loving them so much, I had to post a pic! The biggest Crimson Red Washer and Dryer that I could find!
