Sorry, No pictures yet for this post.
(edit:1/29/08 Here is a picture of MB's head)
I just thought I would write about our day today. Mary-Beth was running to kitchen to make her pizza for lunch and she ran smack into the edge of the piano. She immediately saw blood and freaked out. In turn I got nervous. I ran her to the bathroom to clean her up and I could not get it under control. So I called Will but he had left for lunch and I couldn't reach him. So I then called my mom because I couldn't see how I would drive and hold a rag on her head. So my dad raced out to my house and helped me stop the bleeding. Mary-Beth was hysterical about the thought of going to the ER so we debating on what to do. We put some sterile strips one it to close the cut good and pray it doesn't scar bad. Then while they were napping a tree fell right beside the house. Not a big one. But a loud one. It was like 4 inches from my parents van. Then when the power went out at Alisa's house, Mason was trying to feel his was around and fell right into the brick hearth. He ended up in the ER with three stitches. It was a crazy, crazy day. I was ready for bed needless to say at 9:00.

Mary-Beth and Lane keep telling me that they want pictures of their fish on the computer. So here they are. I also added a picture of Lane on Saturday playing with his gun.

Can You Believe "SNOW"
Starting at 7:00 (YES 7:00 for anyone who knows me and my kids well you know we do not get up very early) we started to receive phone calls telling us of the snow that was falling outside. I won't name any names (Alisa, Sara, Tracy, and Mary:)) Everyone said you better go wake your kids because they will not get another chance anytime soon to see snow.. So I went to go wake up Mary-Beth and I saw the sweetest thing. She was looking out of her window at the snow (without me saying anything) I of course had to run get my camera before she saw me watching her. I took the picture and then asked her how did she know to look out of the window. She said that her dad told her when he laid her down the night before to look out of her window in the morning to see if she saw snow. (he knew he would be gone hunting) It was so cute that she did remember to do this.

Here is Mary-Beth touching snow for the first time. She loved it (even thought it wasn't much).



Lane was not such a happy camper to be woken from his sleep, but once we went out to see it he was amazed. My sweet little boy.
After playing in the snow a minute we of course headed in to get some hot chocolate. (Thanks you guys for waking us up the enjoy the snow this morning.)

The Holidays
Here are the kids as we traveled. We went to Tennessee and to Alabama (twice) in the past couple of weeks. They did very well other than the grumpiness from being sick.

Here are some pics from Tennessee. We had a great time there. Will got to go to the MSU bowl game in Memphis. We really do not get to see the family enough. I do wish we could see them more.
This is Jeremy (Will's cousin), Shaun, Papaw and Will
Will is holding his new dog and Grandaddy is holding his new dog. I guess it is true "a dog is a man's best friend"
Lane sure does love his grandaddy
It is amazing how lane is always throwing something. I even caught it by accident in a pic.
We made it back from Tennessee just in time to stop by my moms ans shoot some fireworks





Here is when all of my family came down from Alabama and we had a great time.. We were even able to have a little party for lane for his birthday. He threw away his paci on this night and I have to admit that he did quite well. He even did good the next day at nap time. However, he was a little cranky all day.




He loved all of his gifts from everyone--"Thanks"

Christmas at the Gordons
Lane, of course, got just about everything "Nemo" from Santa. He was soooo excited to see all that Santa brought him. Mary-Beth got almost everything "Hannah Montana" from Santa.

Both of the kids tried to destroy the house as they road their riding toys in the house. They were hilarious as they tried to figure out how to steer the bikes.
You can't tell by looking at Mary-Beth but the day after Christmas we had to take her to the hospital and we found out that she had Bronchitis.
Here are the Gordon grand kids posing for the camera. They tried to be serious, but it didn't last long.

Mary-Beth had a mini recital this Saturday. She has been looking forward to getting up on the stage for two weeks. You wouldn't think this of her with her being so shy. She did great. However, I shouldn't have sat on the front row because she starred at me the whole time.
