Let it snow (twice in the same year!)

Can you believe we had 8 inches of snow in 12 hours? And two snow storms in the same year? Definitely some crazy whacked out Memphis weather! It was 70 degrees during the week before, then we had a snow storm Saturday and Saturday night, then it is scheduled to be 75 by Thursday of this week!
The backyard was so pretty! No, the Bradford pear does not have snow in it. Those are actually blooms. Because of the warm weather, the poor thing thought it was spring. We could only wish it was.
Memphis Blizzard 2009. We heard that it was coming down at a rate of 2 inches per hour.

Kerri and her snowballs, and then a snowman, and then a snow angel, and then an ice skating rink, etc, etc. She made the most of her time outside.


Brook enjoyed eating the snow and jumping around in it. She is alot like me in that she decided that it was way to cold to be out there for long.



Braeden was not impressed with the snow as noted in the sour face.

Kerri
Kerri is now 10 years old and doing all the cool things a "tween" likes to do. She enjoys seeing, e-mailing, calling, and spending the night with her friends. Most of the time, you'll find her head buried in her Nintendo DS. She makes good grades at school and LOVES science. When she grows up, she would like to be a Vet. She likes helping take care of her sisters too.

Brook

Brook
Brook is 7 years old going on 30. She is so full of life and most days there is an immense amount of drama. She loves to play teacher, write, eat, play with polly pockets, barbies, and dinosaurs, play peek a boo with Braeden, and play anything with Kerri. She makes straight A's at school, but still doesn't like to go. She wants to be a Vet when she grows up. Her favorite place in the whole wide world is Disney World.

Braeden

Braeden
Braeden is growing up so fast! She is now 9 months old. She is now scooting on her bottom and rolling everywhere! She can almost crawl and will walk everywhere if someone is holding her hands. At her recent doctor's appointment, she weighed 23 pounds and was 30 inches long. She was off the chart again for height (15 month old), weight (17 month old), and head circumference (22 month old). The doctor said she was the size of a 18 month old!
