Snow Day....Imaginary Play




Yesterday we didn't have school because of the icy roads.   It was a welcome 3 day weekend.   We snuggled in our jammies all day and the girls put their imaginations to work.  Mia pretended she was a mommy, and Ansley had a pet rabbit.   We had a GREAT day at home!

100th Day of Kindergarten

Mia on her 100th day of school!  She has learned so much so far.  She is an avid reader, loves her friends, and has an exciting story to share with us daily!   

100th Day of School




To celebrate the 100th day of School, Ansley's class dressed like they were 100 years old! She had so much fun.  Mia was disappointed that her class didn't get to dress up too!  They celebrated with a snack of 100 items.....10 pieces of 10 different foods.....trail-mix!

Morning World!

One day last week, S. had to travel so the girls were my big helpers getting out the door.   I love that Ansley took a minute to play in the mirror of the toaster as she was helping with breakfast!  


Mia loves being in charge of Cubby.  He loves her too!


It is hard to believe that a year ago we were on our own in the mornings.  We had to be out the door an hour earlier, and we did it without a hiccup.   I'm not going to lie, it is hard to manage it all by myself, I am so thankful for a husband that helps our mornings run smoothly!  He sure is missed when he travels!   We survived our overnight alone!

Gift Giving!






We had so much fun celebrating Daddy's birthday!  I am not sure who was more excited the girls or S. waiting for presents!  Of course dinner choice was Popeye's fried chicken, and hot apple pies.   Then on the weekend we had his traditional birthday peanut butter custard pie.   I am so thankful to spend my life with this amazing man!   I think 40 will be another fabulous 

Rain, Rain.....Let us PLAY!





Mia dumping her boot!

We have had a day of rain.  We put the girls in rain boots and trash bags and let them make a memory.  Love. Simple. Pleasures.

Friday Fun!





It finally was warm enough to play outside after school on Friday!  Lots of cartwheels and handstands until dark!  I think we are getting ready for spring weather.  

Love from Lolo


The girls LOVED getting a package in the mail from our Lolo.   We sure miss all of our friends in Arkansas!   We love you Lo and sure wish we could give you a hug!

Checkers



Mia learning all about strategy!

Happy 40th Birthday Scott








All of the Sharpless Crew made Scott's 40th birthday memorable! 

Charleston, South Carolina









While the girls spent a couple of days with Nanny, S. and I escaped to Coastal Carolina.  We had so much fun!  We toured the city on bike and captured some great pictures.  It was also a perfect way to celebrate S. birthday!
