It's been a while. So, prepare for a lot of pictures

Getting in to trouble in the fridge!
Karlee is ready to go to a friend's birthday party!  She picked out the outfit all on her own
Sesame Street Live - Korinne is hoarding all of the characters
It was a great show and they had a great time!


Ready for yet another birthday party!
Melissa's bachelorette party

Poor, sick girl! She was the first one to get the dreaded stomach flu





Kohen's 100 Days of School project - he really wanted to add a lot more; grass, lights on the bus, etc.  We had to reign him in a bit!  
Pa's birthday - Karlee and Kohen blowing out the candles

Our pizza date. He was redeeming his Book It pizza.  They get a free one each month from school for finishing their reading logs. 
Bell Partners Leadership Conference - we took over the entire hotel (plus two overflow hotels)
85 foot banner in the Embassy Suites made just for us
In lieu of the Winter Olympics the theme of the conference this year was the Olympic Games.  They had Joey Cheek, 2006 Olympic gold medalist, come and open up the "games".  
We had the Senior Leadership dinner at the Charlotte Motor Speedway

Each region was assigned a color.  Obviously, we were orange. Our team, Devaney's Dynamos (minus one RM not pictured above)

Go Orange!
Team building event
Awards Night
On my way home!
Ahh, finally hit KC! Home sweet home!
Her new favorite thing to do.  Then she holds up one finger, looks at me, waves the finger back and forth and says, "No, No, No, No"
Mark got to test out his coaching chops on Saturday.  Our coach was running a little late due to the weather so he had to fill in.

Cheering on the "Hot Shots"
We have a little cabin fever here with all this cold weather.  Practicing a little bball in the garage.


Trying to sit in her baby doll's chair ... didn't quite fit but she didn't seem to care
Karlee preparing her rainbow cake


Tooth #4 bites the dust! He has two more that are about to go, too ... the top two front ones.
Making Valentine boxes for school.  She was pretty proud of her box!

Our Year So Far .... Science City, Basketball and more!

Digging for fossils at Science City








We had to squeeze every last bit of Christmas out.  Had to ride the Christmas train one last time!
Fun day = tired little girl

Karlee wanted to sleep in a sleeping bag on her floor.  Korinne was very jealous and really wanted to crawl in that bag and sleep with her. 
Tea party for two!
Very rare site ... all sitting together without fighting!
Korinne was not impressed with the exciting second half of the Mizzou game.  

First basketball game of the season. 

Ready for the start of the game ... he was a little nervous!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to You and Yours! 

We rang in the New Year pretty low-key this year; just the five of us.  Although, only two of us actually made it to the New Year! We are looking forward to what 2014 has to bring!  




I received the delicious edible arrangement (pictured above) from one of the property managers I work with at Bell.  Such a nice gesture to ring in the New Year!
