Graceling

One blue eye, one brown.
Proof that Christian is, in fact, a graceling.
His grace is charm.

The days go by so fast..

After a long, December and there's reason to believe maybe this year will be better than the last...
because...
the sun still shines (occasionally) in Atlanta...
some thing never get old...
camo, ninjas, legos...
not everything is as it seems...
*incredibly, no one was harmed in the taking of this picture*

Ninjas need lots of belts...
even slimy hutlets can be cute...
it is possible to break the sound barrier...
"parachuting" is now a safe, land locked game...

I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself to hold on to these moments as they pass.

Big Day

Today was a big day at the Peterson house. We had our first correct usage of air-quotes. As in, "I have to stay in my shop all night to make sure that no 'customers' come and steal things."
GENIUS.

The Apple

Apparently it's true that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. In a recent progress report G's teacher noted "He would make a great diplomat."

Diplomat. What are the chances?

Schooled

Consider me schooled.
Last night we got 3+ inches of snow which has since be covered with this weird icy/sleety thing that's just downright hazardous.

Poor C's double ear infections flared up last night. Since even the Ped's office is closed we've settled in for lots of cuddles and a LONG day (and night). Even though it's obvious he's miserable (Matts asked why he wasn't smiley), he's still trying to be cheerful.
On the plus side Reed's working from home.
What's a good snow without a little taste test?
"Shoveling" the driveways
All worn out

Better safe..

I opened my email to see this:
Cobb County Schools are closed due to inclement weather on Monday, January 10, 2011.
It should read:
Cobb County Schools are closed due to POSSIBILITY OF inclement weather on Monday, January 10, 2011.
Seriously, as of yet, no snow, no rain; nothing.

Christmas!

We got to go back to Utah for a FANTASTIC Christmas. It was full of plenty of family, friends and SNOW!
