BLIZZARD OF 2009

Snow, snow, and more snow! It started snowing on Friday evening around 8:00 pm and continued to snow until about 9:00 pm on Saturday! We got about 21" of snow, which was measured by Juan going out on our deck in only a shorts and a t-shirt to measure!

When Xavier woke up on Saturday morning he looked out the window and his eyes got wide and he said "Mama, Santa is getting ready to come".

Mari and Xavier could not wait to get outside to play in the snow - so out we went. They played in the snow while Juan shoveled the sidewalks.




On Sunday afternoon we went sledding with our friends in the neighborhood! The kids had a blast and didn't want to come in despite the fact that they were freezing.

Mari and Xavier

I liked this picture of Mari and Xavier so I thought I would share it.


Xavier asks to have gel in his hair almost daily because he tells us the "girls like me when I gel my hair!"

It's Official....

Xavier is a true Rawding!

On Wednesday evening he was having trouble going to bed and kept coming to our room because he had to pee, needed a kiss, etc. The last trip to our room he came in asked me to "pull his finger". Without thinking I pulled his finger and he farted!!!

Fast forward to tonight. I had a couple of friends over and the kids started to dance. Mari and her friend Krista were shaking theirs butts so Xavier decided he would join in. He started shaking his butt and much to my surprise he decided to "moon" us while he was shaking his butt.

On both occasions I tried not to laugh, but was unsuccessful. My only regret is that I didn't have the video recorder going or I could possibly be $10,000.00 richer!!!!
