Another boring post!

This past week was pretty uneventful.  Emma has broken out her Valentine's digs and worked on her Valentine cards for this week.  I took a quick trip to Greenville, SC (but didn't take pictures.)

A Snow day with no snow!

Due to our Super Bowl festivities I didn't get my usual Sunday post up! OOPS!  The week was long and crazy.  I ended up having a snow day Friday and we were dismissed early today, but we by no means have a covering snow!

Emma's 100th day of school was celebrated last week.  She was asked to do something with 100.  I found this cute shirt idea on Pinterest, it was a much better thought than completion.  The eyes had to be glued on individually and then the glue I had didn't hold them all so I ended up using superglue on some!!  I thought it turned out pretty cute and was pretty proud of my crafting skills!

My nephew had his last two home basketball games, so Emma and I enjoyed watching him finish up his first high school season. 

Friday, I sent Emma on to school and then picked her up before nap time.  My mom, nephew and Justin met at Sweet Frog to enjoy a nice little treat!

We enjoyed a nice Super Bowl night with some friends of ours.  I had Weight Watchers goodies.  Taco Soup, Funfetti Dip, and Pumpkin Fluff in a graham cracker crust!

Week 5

I found this cute dress at Old Navy months ago.  It was on clearance and perfect for Valentine's Day wear!

A long week

We survived a long week.  No snow and no delay!  Other than our normal Cubbies on Wednesday night we didn't have much to do.  Bryce finishes up basketball this week so we will have a few games to attend!  Saturday we did go to my other nephew's basketball game and a birthday party this afternoon.

I rolled Emma's hair one night this week, but she will not sleep in them so by the time she woke up her hair was curl free!

She loves drawing snowmen right now. I think they are looking pretty good!
Seriously, the highlight of the week was going to Cracker Barrel for dinner Saturday night!

I lost about 5 pounds this week on WW. I am super excited, but I overstuffed myself this evening on potato soup!  I was still in my points but miserable!


Week 4
I love this little dress, I ordered it from Pocket full of sunshine a year or so ago.  It's getting a little short so I was happy to squeeze one more wear out of it!!! 
If you will notice there is no snow!! We had about an inch covering Saturday morning but it was all gone by this morning!

2 hour delays for days

I do believe this is the first year in the history of my school system that we have not missed a day due to weather.  I'm ok with that because we have a mid May dismissal date!  We have however had a lot delays due to the extreme cold and a random snow that came out of nowhere this week.

We had a pretty low key week.  I have started trying to work out since running in the cold air is not my thing.  I also rejoined WW so I can get some pounds have have just crept on this year especially!
Justin went to a conference this weekend so Emma and I just hung out. She hid in her dad's suitcase when he was trying to pack. Saturday we met my friend Ashley in Johnson City for lunch!  It was a nice little trip and meal.  I also bought myself a new bible from Lifeway while we were there!  


Emma practiced some writing this weekend as well.  I thought she did a good job with me spelling out some things to her!

Justin found Frozen cereal at the store today.  Really?!?  Soon we will be pooping snowflakes!! haahaa!
Week 3
Emma's picture for this week.  This is what I call a "vintage" Gymboree dress.  It's super cute and was a hand-me down of a hand-me down.  It is in great shape and I thought she pulled it off super well!

A freezing cold week.

This week was back to work but had two days worth of two hour delays due to the low wind-chills in the area.  We went to my nephew's basketball game and cubbies (she was only 1 of 2 there that night due to the cold) and enjoyed a nice ice cream treat (in the freezing cold!) We rounded up the week with a gymnastics birthday party!

My nephew is #20






How cute are the these boot socks?!?!  

Week 2
I bought this crazy outfit from Kohl's yesterday.  I loved them both so much and wish they were in my size!!!

Happy 2015

2014 was a fun year!  Taking a picture of Emma everyday was really fun.  I will continue to do so but on a weekly basis.  I figure Sunday will be the best day, she's ready for church and I've had time to curl her hair!!!
The last three days of the year wrapped up Emma365!
NYE we attended the annual party with our friends.  The kids played and we played various games and laughed a lot!!
Emma made it to past midnight again.  This kid cracks me up!

New Year's Day Emma and I loaded up and drove to South Carolina to visit may favorite people in the state!  We had lunch with Ashley's family then had Chuy's for dinner and then went to find our favorite Christmas lights display! 
Emma did not make the trip with me last year so I was super excited for her to see it.  She said halfway through, "Mommy, I don't want to leave these beautiful lights!"  I was so excited she loved it so much! 

Friday morning we met up with Ashley's family and did a little run around the park and then let the kids "hill sled"  It was as much fun as snow sledding, it was warmer and drier!  Emma wasn't too brave at first, but she slowly warmed up enough to where she wanted to go down without any help!  We had a great time!



We headed home Saturday morning and spent the evening watching my nephew's JV team play.  They won, it was super exciting!   We then went to eat and headed home for some sleep!  Sunday we had church and a birthday party!  It's so hard to believe this break went by so fast!  Back to work and school for us tomorrow!!!  

I have decided to to a weekly photo of Emma this year.  So here is week one!
