more snow











I know growing up I would get so excited that I might see snow coming up to the mountains. The Bear and I have even be know to put the top down when we saw a few flakes. But after the 2 big snow in a month I am ready for some warmer weather. It took me 2 1/2 hrs to get home from work, it took Ho 4 hrs, and Jonathan 6 hrs. This global warming thing is not working for me. I was heading up Ledbetter Rd Friday night after sitting and snail driving for ever. I went around a stuck truck and was headed up the road for the last big hill and was stopped again. Ho was somewhere in front of me so I called him to see where he was. He asked me what are you doing..I said watching some idiot back down Ledbetter..his response...he was the idiot! The company car wasn't doing very well in this. We push and push some more but the car wouldn't go...so we got it turned around and he headed down. I was told to go home and he would call me to come get him once he found a place to park the car. I did what I was told..didn't like leaving him but I had to go to the bathroom. After about 45 minutes I got the call to come get him. So this little Fla girl got back in the big blue bus and went 4 wheel driving. I got him and we went home. Saturday we dug his company car out but we still can't get it home. We have had some good family times this past weekend eating, playing games, sledding, making snowmen, and having fun. I just hope the ground hog says no more winter tomorrow!

Jenna's basketball




Jenna is short but she can play a good game of basketball, as long as you don't count the fowls... she is tuff...
Very proud of her. When she went to try out the guy, Mr Ross, said ohh no. His daughter had played against her last year and was hoping Jenna wasn't coming back. But it worked out good Jenna made his team.

4H awards




We went to the 4H district awards Friday and Jenna got her award for the largest sunflower she own back in Sept. It was neat to see all the clubs together and see what other competitions there are out there to do. The girls are starting to rolling on 2010 things.

Family Fun Day!
















On a cold snowy Saturday morning we loaded the bus full of all of us and headed to Atlanta to have a family fun day Roberts style. We went to the GA Aquarium and some place else I can't say...don't want Jonathan to get in trouble. To get all 11 of us together was great. We had the most fun and that aquarium is amazing. We missed the Beluga whales, the lady told Ho that Fed Ex lost them..most have been a big package, but everything else was so cool. I could have spend hours at the penguins and the jellyfish. They had 3 large touch tanks that the girls got to play in...don't know if they will eat shrimp as much anymore after holding one. Then is was off to the other place across the park from the aquarium. Their 4 D movie was the best and to be able to try all the different flavors from around the world. Then we all went to get Mexican and have Christmas. To have all of us together is great! Hope we can do it soon again.

2010







How else do you bring in the new year then a plate of black eye peas, greens, rice, and a good game of bowling? The girls had a great time I was even winning for a few but not for long. Let the good times roll in 2010!

New Years & Birthday




To some people New Years is the night you remember the old and bring in the new. Well, 13 years ago I brought in the new with 2 beautiful, little girls. It is so hard to believe that they are now teenagers. Ok, I made it the past 13 yrs I guess I can make it thru the teenage years...I'm already turning gray! The twins got their ears re pieced and we had pizza & cupcakes at the Bears and Ho's. Then we went to see what was going on around downtown and headed to Jonathan's to bring in the new year. Sam fell a sleep and we all played smart ass a few times. I can remember all the twins birthday parties and this yr was nice and quiet hopefully 2010 will be quiet also...wait a minute I forget there is no quiet time on the funny farm.
