mother/son dance : )

parker had a mother/son dance at his school, and because they pitched it to the kids as a "male student/special female friend" dance, i was his third choice after ju-ju and mia. but we ended up having fun, he ran into his friends, and us moms were quickly ditched so they could dance and take pictures of eachother doing it. haha. in the pictures are his friends damani and gabe. if i could handpick my son's friends, these are definately the boys i'd choose!!

disney on ice!!

mia gave us tickets for disney on ice for christmas and we went with her this week and had a blast!! thanks for the cool christmas gift, mia!!

sledding!

thanks to the beauty of tons of snow in february in ohio, we went sledding a couple weeks ago. we froze our tails off, but everyone seemed to have a great time!
