The kids & I catching a cold. Cecil leaving back to Korea. The kids and I adjusting to that. The kids ending up being out of school for a wk due to what Oklahoma considers a BLIZZARD HA I've seen more snow then that in normal winters up north. I haven't had much of a chance to stitch or sew. But I'm very happy with what I've gotten done. Oh we had a blast playing wii n other things on the snow days :) but I'm so happy they went to school today. They say we will get another "Blizzard" tues-weds. If we do the kids will most likely be out the rest of this wk past tues.
Well she don't have her shoes on that go with the costumes and the tights haven't come in yet. There is a pair for each costume. I have to still buy her Jazz shoes. The first one(yellow/orange) is her Ballet Combo class recital. The 2nd (pink/black) is for Tap combo class. And the last is for her Jazz/hiphop combo class. Yup my little 6yr old is keeping up with school, Karate(2nd degree yellow belt), & a Ballet & Tap combo dance class along with her Jazz/hiphop class! She is begging me to let her add Cheerleading as well but I tell her NO! Between My son's Gifted program at school and both of them in Karate and her dance its enough for me to keep up. Maybe when she's a little older. Oh and my son says I have to add he's 7 and is a 3rd degree yellow belt haha! His Bday is a few wks away and testing for his orange belt in March. They are both on the way young side for orange belt but they want to try for it so they both test in March. Kalista will most likely go to 3rd or 4th degree yellow and I think my boy will likely get 4th degree yellow but WHO KNOWS! They are so amazing! I'm so proud of them Both!
He played the part of the scarecrow with a whopping 17 lines! All the others had 2-4 lines other then the gardener who had 10. He remembered them all perfectly too! I'd add video but it wont let me upload it as its 18mins long. 
It really wasn't too bad. We kept our power which is 1 out of 4 yrs of the winter storm that we have managed to. Every yr b4 now we've ALWAYS lost power from a wk to almost a month! We had a blast playing the wii and playing games around the house. We had to dig out the snow between the front door and the divider u see in the first pic. And we couldn't go anywhere for 3 days. The snow plows that cleared the major rds on both sides of our neighborhood blocked us IN and they did the rds while it was still snowing and the wind was still blowing. The neighbor boy said it was blocked up taller then him and he's 6ft! Finally a cop who was also trapped in the neighborhood and some other men got together and went and opened up the main rd out. Saturday the city brought a snowplow and cleared the other rd open leading to our neighborhood. And the other neighborhoods around here they did the same thing to. 
I didn't get much more done but it is noticeable. I need to go buy the blue flosses as I am used them for another project haha!
