He Never Lets Go...

This little boy CONSTANTLY has a ball in his hand!

Ice Cream Cone

Cole had his first ice cream cone on Sunday. After church we met Nana and Baba at Golden Corral. This was my first visit to Golden Corral, and I was quite impressed! I love a good country buffet;)!!!

Flat Tire & Fun Times

Friday after work Patrick and I took Cole over to Jim and Rhonda's to spend the night and the 2 of us headed to Table Rock Lake to celebrate my good friend Kim's 30th Birthday. We were ALMOST out of town when our tire blew:(! There was some sort of spark plug looking thing stuck in it, and it wasn't a pretty sight! The tire went from full to F.L.A.T. in a matter of seconds! Thankfully my "handy husband" was with me! He changed the flat while I stood around and took pictures;)!

THIS is the lovely donut that we had to cruise around on! Needless to say, we went back home and got Patrick's truck before heading on our road trip! I don't think this bad boy would have lasted very long;)! Hahahah!

Finally, we made it to our destination!

Patrick with the birthday girl:)!.....

Nice pose, Carter's;)......

We played a Trapped tournament (this is a drinking game we all used to play in college. Good thing we were having a bunking party so no one had to drive home;)! I'm not sure who won this game, but it looks like everyone is happy:)!.....

Evidently Amber thought Georgia needed some kisses. Hahhahaha.....

Wagon Ride

Park

We decided to take advantage of the semi nice weather. It was still a little cold, due to the wind, but MUCH better than the single digits:)!

Look at those MUDDY boots;)!!!

Razorback Basketball

I finally remembered to bring my camera to a basketball game! Cole absolutely loves going to the games!

He sat in his own seat like a big boy for most of the game.....

This is when #21 got ejected from the game for hitting Rotnei in the face!

At halftime we ran into the Carter fam. I didn't have my camera with me, so I stole this pic from Kate's blog. Thanks, Kate:)!

Happy Friday!

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! We are grilling steaks tonight and going to the Hog game tomorrow! I love a good laid back weekend:)!

Mr. Independent

As I said in my last post, Cole has been Mr. Independent lately! The other day I found him trying to put his Barney DVD in all by himself!

Haircut #3

I took Cole to have his 3rd haircut last week. Once again, I forgot my camera, so this isn't the best picture, but I had to post it because I was so proud of him for sitting in the chair like a big boy! The last time I took him he ended up in my lap, but this time he was Mr. Independent.



Thanks, Taylor for his new 'do:)!

Bathtime Fun

FASTLANE

The week after Christmas, my mom, my sister and my nephews all came to visit. Due to the frigid temperature outside, we decided to go to Fastlane and play inside:)! We put the bumpers up for Cole and got him a ramp. At first he didn't know what to think about it, and I would have to hold him and just let him push it off. By the end of the game, he LOVED it and would walk right up to it by himself and push it down. So much fun:)!!!

Brady's moves:).....

Ryan's moves:).....

Time for some pizza!

I didn't even know they made bowling shoes this little! They were PRECIOUS!!! I secretly wanted to sneak them in my purse and bring them home;)!

After bowling, we played in the arcade.....

Then Brady and Ryan rode the kiddie carts.....

THEN, Peg and Lindsey rode the go-carts! Brady rode with Peg and Ryan rode with Lindsey. It was HILARIOUS!!!!! Mom and Lindsey didn't quit laughing the whole time!

Mom was getting a little aggressive! I don't think the woman in the yellow cart was too happy with her;)! Hahahahha!!!

Now, back to the arcade.....

Cole stole this ball from the basketball game Ryan was playing. I could NOT get it away from him! We did eventually give it back, but it wasn't a pretty sight;)!.....

Here are a couple of videos of Cole bowling.....

And a quick video of the go-cart race:).....
