Friday iPhone Dump #192 - from 12/16/16

My lovely blogging app stopped working and I've been waiting on it to get fixed. Unfortunately, I don't think that is going to happen so I'm trying this through the web. It's much harder so I apologize if there are grammatical errors!

Last weekend, Randy needed some continuing education hours and found a class he wanted to take in San Antonio. So, we made a weekend of it and Jacob skipped school on Friday. While Randy was in class, the kids and I went to the Children's Museum.

I'm thinking this pilot costume is for smaller children.

That night, after Randy was finished, we all went to the River Walk.

Silly picture, of course.

The Alamo!

We went to the wax museum and this was Jacob's favorite part...Avengers!

He thinks Iron Man was blasting him.

Hannah liked the minions!

Jacob and I did the Believe it or Not museum which he loved.

While Randy and Hannah took a horse drawn princess carriage ride around. Of course, she loved it!!

The next day, we ate at one of Aunt Laura's favorite restaurants.

And then went to Fiesta Texas!

The kids scored some pucker powder.

Hannah rode her first "real" roller coaster and absolutely loved it! It's all she wanted to do! And between all of us riding it and also switching off riding with her, she rode it 14 times! This guy was at the exit and she called him her pet chicken.

She even met Tweety Bird!

Our silly elves made a toilet paper snowman again.

Wednesday was Hannah's Christmas program at school and she rocked it!

Memaw even came to watch.

Hannah and two of her best friends, Bradley and Claire.

Claire, Hannah and Adam.

Jacob's class had a holiday book exchange. Mrs. Dockal sent this picture. Clearly, he was excited!

Last weekend, we adopted a new dog. He's tiny, and cute, and the kids both really like him. Well, Jacob likes him...Hannah adores him! His name is Rocky.





He's pretty chill as you can see here.


We also bought toys to donate to Toys for Tots again and brought them to the fire station.








Rocky had to be snipped so we didn't actually pick him up until Sunday night.





M and Pa were there at the time so Jacob took advantage of having someone new to battle with.





Our silly elves. The picture doesn't do it justice but it was a "shoe-shoe" train with a lot of their toys along for the ride. Both kids loved this one.


Rocky, in his cone of shame, being carried by Hannah.


We also got to keep M and Pa's new dog for a couple of days. Hannah was really busy with two dogs to tote around.


Rocky likes to wake Hannah up from her naps!


The elves strike again! They also wanted me to tell you that wrapping a toilet is not as easy as it looks!!


On Wednesday night, we went to WinterFest at Typhoon Texas and met Frosty!


And, of course, Santa. They had JUST written letters to Santa about what they wanted for Christmas and put them into the special North Pole mailbox. So, when Santa asked what they wanted for Christmas, Jacob said "You'll just have to wait and see!!"


The crazies in jail.


My big snowman.


My little snow girl.


Frosty, again!


And pony rides.


Jacob didn't really want to do it but he really liked it!

This is a picture of Jacob in pure heaven. While we were at M and Pa's house, he and Logan spent a lot of time playing with Logan's old Star Wars toys in the shed. He would do this as long as Logan would play with him.


This is how poor Bryanna had to sleep. With Hannah almost on top of her and a lot of empty bed on the other side!


Catching the bus in the morning...in the rain!


Memaw and her grandkids!


Our elves are back and they are already being crazy!!
