Come on SPRING!!!

I am so ready for cold and flu season to come to an end!! It seems like everyone I know has a sickness of some sort and that includes the Hensley's! It started for me over a month ago with the sneezing and runny nose… then Addison caught my cold and went right into an upper respiratory infection... breathing treatments, antibiotics and steroids! That brings us today and she is still not 100%. I finally went to the Dr. and got medication Monday and started feeling somewhat normal yesterday!! Colby and Todd are getting that extra vitamin C trying to stay healthy!
So I say COME ON spring!! I am turning into a germaphboe! It is like I am looking at every object in a whole new way.... wait don’t touch that! So thankful for Clorox wipes, Purell hand sanitizer and hand soap!!! I wish we could all hibernate till spring!
I pray that the you and your family are healthy and STAY THAT WAY!! Keep washing those hands!!

No pics to post... I hope to get back on that this weekend!

Nice Weather...

The weather was so nice this weekend!! We spent a lot if time out doors even with Addie being sick. I took her in today to find out she is sick with an upper respiratory infection. To say the least she has been a bit crabby but for the most part we enjoyed our weekend.

Todd was working Canton this weekend so he was gone 90% of the time. To kill time and energy we went to the Grapevine Biotical Gardens and Grapevine Lake. I am still learning how to use my camera… I still have lots to learn but it sure is fun trying. Here are some pics below.

After that we headed to Sonic for some ice cream. Addie kept saying "No Addie's house" over and over... so we followed the signs to Grapevine Lake. It was really chilly down by the water... the kids threw rocks in the lake for a good 30 mins.

Tomorrow is my sister Angela's B-day.... Happy Birthday Ang! I hope you have ONE AWESOME DAY tomorrow!!

BUUURRRR

We have today off as schools are closed for ice. Addison is cracking me up and I have to share!

Mommy: Come here Addie and look outside!

Addie: Oh WOW!!

Mommy: Look at the ice... it is really cold outside!

Addie: No ice mommy!... SUGAR!!!

SO FUNNY!!! I guess it kind of looks like sugar!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year.

Wow... how fun was this Christmas?!?! Having a 7 year old and 2 year old made for a really fun holiday! I was able to have 16 days at home with Todd and the children and what a blessing that was! I am not sure if that is what made the difference or the fact that we didnt travel.

I am thinking my kids must have been really good this year because Santa was very good to them!

This is the entire GOODS that Santa left at our house!!!

Kids are so excited trying to see what is in their stockings! You can see that Addie has already hit the chocolate and going for more!

This is us on Christmas morning... all watching the Christmas Story! Love how they air it for a full 24 hours straight! Colby got guitar hero... man guys this is FUN!Addie sleeping with her new baby alive... This is nap time Christmas day. She looked so sweet I had to sneak in to take a photoThese are a bit out of order sorry... These are Christmas Eve at Todd's mom’s houseAddie and I playing...This girl LOVED this snow globe...My handsome sweet son...Mommy had a great Christmas too... I got a Nikon D60 SLR for Christmas! Some fun photos from the park!

Addie showing her support for The BOYS! Yes I know they lost... but we still love them! Kind of random but like the pic!

My honey got us front row Chris Cagle tickets for NYE... This was my first time EVER to actually "go out" on new years! It was a BLAST... how could it not be with Cagle?!?!

I hope everyone had a great holiday season! I know that 2009 is going to be a wonderful year!!

Happy Holidays!

I hope everyone has a safe holiday season!!
Merry Christmas and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We are all sitting in the front room while Colby and Todd are playing the Wii. I decide what a cute photo opp... this would be!

I think it turned out pretty funny!

See, pretty funny! This is as good as it gets... we didn’t do our professional photographer photos this year. So I am not sure what we will do for the Christmas card this year!

Here is my handsome boy playing the wii! Colby is on one couch and Todd is on the other (not pictured)

Addie is going to be like me... she LOVES taking pictures!

Todd took this one of me and the kids! LOVE IT! Colby is being his normal silly self... and Addie my little bird is eating again!
