White Storm

Every year Dallas gets a sleet or snow storm where they have to close the schools and the city shuts down. We have been doing puzzles, baking cookies, playing games, staying in our pjs all day, roasting marshmallows, reading books, watching movies, drinking hot chocolate, and taking naps. We all have cabin fever and I'm ready for sunshine again!

Oh What a Difference a Year Makes...

From one week old to one year old. She is my captivating one.

Monster Truck Jam

The Monster Truck Jam was LOUD! O'Neill's favorite truck, Monster Mutt, who is a dog truck won the freestyle! We saw trucks doing back flips, sky high jumps, wheels come off and trucks flipped over. It was a late night with two sleepy babies in the car on the way home.

Oh and one order of cotton candy and one snow cone cost $30! seriously. It was an expensive night with tickets and parking. AT&T Stadium is a racket!

Mardi Gras!!

The Zavala clan drove to New Orleans for Mardi Gras! JZ was apart of the Tucks Crewe and boarded the float with buddy Rand Wrighton. Both families brought the kids and it was a blast - super kid friendly! Rand is from NOLA and his family hosted us in true southern style. Friday we saw 1 parade and Saturday we saw 3 parades - and everyone got hit in the face with beads! The kids sat on the ladders while Meredith and I caught the beads from behind. It was Presidents' Weekend, Valentine's Day, Rebecca'a birthday, and of course Mardi Gras - with perfect weather! It was filled with king cake, beignets, gumbo, red beans and rice, and jambalaya... it was fun.
