Break time....

My winter break started last week and I am loving it!! I started a book that I have been wanting to read that doesn't require homework or a test after reading:) I did really well this term. I was absolutely shocked when I saw my report card last night. I thought I did a little worse than I did. No complaints here! Tim surprised me and took me to a movie this last Saturday for part of an early B-day present. He also had one of my best friends show up with their husbands and join us. Afterwards we went to Nookies for appetizers. They were really good! The girls gave me another present yesterday and apparently there is more. I have to say that I am so so blessed! Tim recently applied for a different position at his work that is very beneficial for him. He got the job and starts the new position on the 22nd. He will have his own office now too. I told him I would help decorate it "manly style." He accepted my offer!
I caught the girls sitting on the table like this the other night. I have no idea where they learned this, I am sure from some movie. Tresa said "We are meditate." :) They saw me with the camera before I took this picture but I made them close their eyes again. Before the snow hit the ducks that live in the creek behind our house.
After the snow hit! Below Jack thinking of a way to get to the ducks with out getting too cold and wet. He loves the water but is not trained to hunt so he isn't to used to it. He did finally jump in and I swear his eyes about jumped out of his head. He looked at me like "Are you kidding me that water is ridiculously cold!" He jumped right back on the bank. He did scare away 1 duck. We are so proud;) Yesterday we had a two hour delay and today NO SCHOOL!! Mylah and Tresa are still in their pj's and it is 1pm. Gotta love snow days!
