What a Busy Week!

The week started off with Granddaddy's birthday on March 3. Chloe and I picked up Granddaddy and MeMaw in the pouring rain and took them to the Spaghetti Store where we met Cindy and Laura. It was the first time that Granddaddy and MeMaw had ever eaten at that restaurant and Chloe was such a big help in helping them to decide what to choose. Cindy and Laura arrived about the time that we finished but that did give Chloe a little longer to entertain everyone. Had it not been so rainy - it would have been a perfect evening for my daddy's 81st birthday!


Then Tuesday night, PePaw had a birthday. He DID NOT want to go eat. So I picked Chloe up and we rushed home and made him a chocolate birthday cake with sprinkles. Lots of sprinkles, actually! Later the pizza dude brought pizzas for supper. Right before we cut the cake, Chloe ran toward PePaw yelling, "Let's get this party started!" She was snapping those fingers and twisting that little hiney! Nothing would do but that we sing 'Happy Birthday' and then she cut the cake. She had picked out a card earlier at Target and had him open it, right before telling him about the monkey magnet she had enclosed! What fun for all of us!

Somehow the word 'SNOW' popped into the weather forecast. First on Tuesday, then Thursday, finally they were sure it was coming on Friday. Well, it did! School got out an hour early and I made it home just as the first flakes began to fall. Chloe was so excited! I heard she had a late night Friday but managed to wake up early Saturday to see the Winter Wonderland! Grant had left his truck at our house the night before and had driven the 4-wheeler home. This is how they arrived at our house Saturday morning to play in the snow~
Chloe was pulled around the yard on the very same sled that her daddy and Uncle Brent used to play on:

And that precious little angel made her own snow angel!


What a fun day for everyone. Even Pepaw FINALLY put on his happy face and came outside to help make the snowman. It is just too embarrassing to show it, funny little snowman though!
