a lot has happened this past week!!!! first off- as anyone in the world knows by now…..the dallas-fort worth texas area got a record breaking LOTS of SNOW!!! It was sooo much fun to see and play in, but not at all fun to drive in!!




luke and dylan loved playing in the snow. it was so unreal the amount of snow we had. we had a very busy weekend, so we couldn’t play in the snow as much as we wanted….but atleast I got some pictures!!!




dylan mostly loved just eating the snow…..off of anything….for instance….these bushes…..


secondly. my youngest brother chad got home from his mission in chile on friday morning…at 6 am!!! yes, we woke the kids up and off we went to welcome home the yard dog (nickname). it was so much fun to see him!!! luke totally remembered him and dylan-a little bit! avery was born 2 months after chad left so he met avery for the first time!! It was great having some very close friends of ours welcome him home!






lastly, my sweet grandmother (hollywood was her nickname) passed away last tuesday. I can’t tell you how much I love that woman. she was everything to me and to everyone around her. this picture was taken in decmber of 2009 just a couple months ago at my brother’s wedding. she was such a wonderful person inside and out. she was very outgoing, just like my mom! her laugh was contagious and she just lit up a room. she will forever be missed. love you meme.


all 4 of my brother’s got to be the paul bearers, along with my cousin eric. It was neat to see them together.


this is the youngest granddaughter out of 13. she and hollywood were so close.


the sweetest guy on earth, grandpa larry, her husband…saying good-bye.
