Tulsa got 6 inches of snow today.

We took the girls out for some snowman building and snow angel making. They had a blast. It wasn’t horribly cold and the snow was perfect for packing.

Today was our last day, so we had to cut it short. We stopped by the Titanic Museum. They wouldn’t allow any cameras, so we didn’t get any pictures. We did stop at one of the local diners on the main street for lunch though and we got to meet Elvis!

Little Elvis, that is… Or rather, Little E:

It rained all day. We spent the morning at the hotel pool:

We did get out in the afternoon. We had lunch at Danna’s.

Day 2 was all about Silver Dollar City.

Olivia has been playing with her Polly Pocket Disney dolls all the time lately. She can’t get enough of them. It’s adorable.

We had a late Chinese New Year celebration at The Royal Dragon.

After running around playing with our dog Max for 15 minutes:

Gabriella: “I’m pooped!”
Olivia: “I’m pee-peed!”

Sadie, Uncle Greg and Aunt Jacinda came by to see us today. Gabriella and Olivia were so excited!

The weather was horrible today. It was a wintery mix! The roads were too dangerous to drive on, so we didn’t get to go to The Chinese New Year celebration at the Royal Dragon with the Eng Family tonight. Daddy still brought home some treats, including some lucky money envelopes, of course!

Mama took the girls to Uncle Greg and Aunt Jacinda’s house today to meet their new cousin, Sadie Belle.

Here’s some pics of her getting a sponge bath:

With Mom and Aunt Sasha:

Welcome, cousin Sadie Belle!

Born today, January 18, 2009. Congratulations Uncle Greg and Aunt Jacinda.

The girls had to stay home today, while Mama and daddy went to the hospital:

The girls’ birthdays were Thursday and Sunday.

Their grandparents, aunts and uncles and mama and daddy all pooled funds and got them a giant playset from Jack Wills.
Here are some pictures of them going wild!

The movers came today. We close on our old house on Monday. It has to be empty AND clean. UGH.
