Good Buddies...

Cole and Lexi were at the table last night coloring and writing away. Cole jumped down with this piece of paper folded up in his hand and asked if he could run over and give it to his good friend Hailey. I asked if I could see what it was and when I opened it, it brought a little tear to my eye. Childhood friendships are so sweet, and these two are the sweetest. These are all pictures of Cole and his good buddy Hailey, from the very beginning of their sweet friendship, when they could barley sit next to each other and drool together. And holding hands from the start!

13 Years, WOWZA, Happy Anniversary!

Really has it been that long?? And I still love him with all my heart. Amazing!

Ice Fishin' with the boys...

Dustin decided to take Cole up ice fishing last Saturday with some of his buddies. They were gonna be gone all day long so I packed very very carefully for Cole making sure he had a few pairs of wool socks, his snow suit, big winter jacket, snow boots, extra pants, an extra long sleeve shirt, two pairs of gloves, and a few warm winter hats. Dustin packed the food and him and Cole made the fishing poles the night before. They were up at 5:15am and they were off, right before they hit Magic Reservoir Dustin text me that his truck read (-2) degrees. BRRRRRR. They got there and threw the first line in and Dustin caught a 3 pound trout. Didn't catch another thing ALL day long. When Cole got home he said... "I caught none fish", made me so sad. On a side note, I was so careful to pack everything for a day of cold, I forgot the sun still shines on freezing cold days and the reflection off the snow could be trouble for my little guy, and it was, he came home with the reddest face I have ever seen. He had sun blisters on his cheeks, and he was burnt, Dustin was too :-(
