the next week at school was class picture day! abby and jared looked so cute : ) we took a picture before leaving for school and then they each wanted to take one with their stuffed animals.
this past weekend trisha threw a surprise 30th birthday party for brian. it was at the restaurant old timers in millington and she asked us all to dress up like old people! we had a fun time hanging out with everybody.

me and jesse in 40 years
we have been working on redecorating the house and our latest project was abby's room. we decided to work on it the day after the party since we didn't have the kids that weekend. she had told us she wanted a purple room with stripes on one wall...but she didn't realize we were doing it this weekend. her bed was not in great shape so we brought in a bedroom set from my house for her to use. the set we put in her room is one that memaw smith gave me. it's one that papaw bought for her when he was still alive so it's really special to me. we haven't done any decorating in the room yet, but that will come. she was so surprised and excited. i loved seeing her so happy! we plan to do jared's room next!
this past week the kids had a day out of school for bad weather. we didn't actually get any snow but there was ice on the roads. they spent the morning watching cartoons and then decided to make cards to send to all of our out of town cousins. they sent cards to gavin and kelsye, tennessee, lilye, alex and clarke, and jenna and jett. they had a great time decorating the cards and then telling me exactly what they wanted written in them.
well, that's about it for our first 18 days of january! hope everyone else is having a fun 2013 : )
