Sleet and Ice and Snow, OH MY!

OH MY GOODNESS! We are in for it! The freezing rain has started and I'm starting to worry that we will definitely be stuck in the house for the better part of the next 3 days. The forecasters are calling for up to 1" of ice now thru part of tuesday and then followed by anywhere from 6-12" of snow (depending on what part of the city you live in). To say that St. Louis has a bullseye on it is an understatement. Me and the kids are staying put and letting mother nature do its thing. I've printed off several Valentine craft ideas from a great website called All Kids Network - very few materials needed and great for keeping small hands busy and out of trouble!
For everyone that is in the path of this this storm, please be safe if you have to be out and driving in it. I was in Cincinnait this past weekend celebrating my sister Molly's 30th birthday and had to come home a day early to beat the storm and so my driving partner (mom, he he he ) could catch a late flight back to Cincy and avoid the blizzard they are predicting in Chicago!
Picures will come later of the madness outside and the craziness inside! Stay warm and safe everyone!

Birthday Party at Chuck E Cheese!!

Brady decided he wanted to have his birthday party with his friends at Chuck E Cheese. He invited his best buddies from school and we had a great time. He scored tons of tickets in the ticket blaster, had a Star Wars cake and had a great time playing games with all his friends. Here are some highlights from the awesome party!

Highlights from today: Hollywood Studios

Today we spent the day at Hollywood Studios. The kids enjoyed seeing all their favorite characters and catching the fun shows. They loved the Toy Story Mania ride. Brady rode the Star Wars ride with Brian and may get to participate in Jedi Training later this week.  Here are some pictures we took while waiting to meet Buzz Lightyear and Woody.  Meeting the Disney Jr. Characters Jake (& the never land pirates) and Sophia the First Wreck it Ralph and Vallenope Monsters, Inc: Mike & Sulley

A weekend in the city...

Kaitlyn has her first Irish dance feis here in downtown Atlanta. We decided to make a weekend of it (she dances today and tomorrow) and spend the night at the hotel where the feis is being held. We started very early this morning with Kaitlyn dancing just before 9am! She did amazing and placed in both her dances (second in jig; 3rd in reel). After she finished dancing we headed to the children's museum of Atlanta. The kids had a blast trying all the cool things to do. Then we grabbed some lunch in centennial park (it's 65 degrees here so we ate outside!!) and then hit the aquarium. The kids are excited to swim at the indoor pool later and then it's more dancing in the morning!
