Happy New Year! We are ready for a new year filled with big events, many 1sts, and great memories. We haven't been up to much these days. Poor Matt is coming out of a terrible bout of strepp throat/ear infections. I didn't think adults got those but he did. He started the year at 2am with night sweats/chills and a high fever. I'm glad the medicine has started working and we are starting to see the old Matt come back.....we missed him. (He literally did not move or talk for like 2 days).
We were also suprised to see snow this am! I have been a busy bee around the house and have not been keeping up with the news. I guess everyone else knew it was coming. It was a nice suprise though. Here are some random pics and some new pics today of the snow..
Little man puttin down one of his many "cutie oranges" he eats everyday.
When my mom was here a few days ago, I put her diet coke in this as a joke. Trenton found it later that day and put his sippie in it. It was quite a site to say the least.
Checking out the snow.
About to hit mommy with a snow ball.
Daddy taught Trenton to eat the snow. Fabulous....
He said "yummmmm...it's icy!"
The goods.
GI Joe
You KNOW that was not from us. But THANKS! :)
This is about excited as Trenton gets for the camera. (His father's child for sure) I kept telling Trenton it was Jesus' birthday and he said "no it's not!....it's daddy's!"
Matt putting together Handy Manny workbench. He is gonna freak!
Daddy and Trenton reading Twas the Night Before Christmas.
Running around like a wild man!
Riding his new scooter from GiGi and Poppy.
Matt's lil sis, Alexis, is quite the singer. She got an early Christmas present tonight......an amp and a microphone. She does great in front of people. She sang this year at the fair and was awesome!!
He knew how to ride the scooter without us telling him. He sees the "big boys" in our neighborhood.
Digging in!
"What's in here?" (scooter)
He was just elated about his first present....a candy cane from Lexi.
Waiting to open presents...he knew that big one was for him.
Eyeballing all the food.
Lexi
Sydney supervising. She made the most awesome red velvet cake, yummy.
Matt and Uncle Jerry
"Caught ya!" Trenton loves to jump on GiGi's bed.
Living Room Christmas tree. I wish you could read the pillows on the chairs. They say "Naughy" and "Nice".
Trenton's sport tree in his room.
Entry table. Proudly displaying Trenton's rulodph pic he made today at school.
Kitchen table. 
Trying to work up the courage to ride the camel. He told me "mama, YOU ride it and I'll watch!" That didn't happen.
Damngood cheese.
That's enough pictures already!!
This is Trenton towards the end of the night passing out candy. He's in his jammies.
Waiting eagerly for the next trick or treater.....
Trenton with GG and Aunt Lexi the nerd.
Family pic.....yes I am a dark brunette as of last Thurs. No I did not do it for Halloween. This is a frequently asked question...
Their faces crack me up! Trenton got a billy bob sucker from GG. When he puts the sucker in his mouth, the front of it has big hillbilly teeth on it.
Trenton at the beginning of the night. After the first house, Trenton walked down the driveway and said "I go home now." What a little homebody!! We did not go home.
Daddy and Trenton moving on to more houses. 
Taking his sweet time. I thought he would be running from house to house for more candy. He stopped to pick weeds, pick up rocks, you name it, he had TTADD (trick or treat ADD). I didn't realize he brought his handy manny hammer and he sat down in someone's front yard and got out his hammer to "fix his bucket". He started banging away on it right there! Hilarious!
Trenton showing off the pumpkin he made. By the way....the best part of this costume was the fact that the hat was too small and so cheap looking. Aunt Michelle bought him a better one but it just wasn't as funny!!
