the errington 5

Monday, January 6

jack could not decide whether he wanted a star wars or a football themed birthday cake, so he got both!

opening presents

jack invited a couple of friends for pizza, games, a movie and ice cream

and finished the day with a little horseback ride

this year, as usual, we had more than one Christmas celebration. we celebrated early with my family (not pictured)...sorry yall :(

then we had an errington 5 only celebration. i only took a few pics because i am getting old and forgetful.

l.o.v.e.

then we went to port arthur to celebrate with colin's side of the family.

we played some frisbee golf

and mini golf

we also did crafts, played games, and ate some of oma's yummy food

during one of our short school days this month, i took two of my kiddos fishing. the day was gorgeous and being out in nature with my

children was priceless.

a proud moment...mackenzie chose not to fish, but shot over

20 turtles from the pier

reese was not able to go because she was at a uil competition getting

third place in number sense

(a chip off the old block) :)

tis the season...

this never happens to me, but when the weather gets cold, colin gets the itchin' to bake. and the kids love it!

here are some of their recent creations...

and Christmas preparation is not complete without a couple of humiliating pics of the pets

(sorry, but i get it from my mom)

and i have to throw this in here...this little guy was following my husband around church. he was so cute and let colin touch him.

another thing to add to "you know you live in the country when...."
