Spending Time with Family

We sure have enjoyed having Jerry's family home from Florida this week! Alan and Janelle and their kiddos came to visit, so we've been taking advantage of having some family time. Last night us Cooper kids (us big ones) decided to leave the kids with Mamaw and Papaw and go spend some time together. If I am remembering right, I can't think of a time all of the siblings and their spouses have went out (without the kids) and had some fun, so it was about time : ). First stop was Texas Roadhouse which was very yummy and then we stopped a couple other places : ) One was boring ole Wal-Mart, but the other place was...let's just say we will keep that place undisclosed, HA! No we didn't go to the bar, so all of you that are thinking that, can wipe that thought from your mind, LOL! While we were away the kids enjoyed playing games and decorating Christmas cookies with Mamaw and Papaw. Thanks so much for watching the kids Reed and Betty so we could go and enjoy some "grown up time".

I think Kallee spent more time licking the frosting and sprinkles from her
fingers than actually decorating the cookies :)

After leaving Mamaw & Papaw's, the older girls decided to come home with us a brave the cold! We pulled out the hide-a-bed that is in Kallee's room and heated it up with the heating blanket. They said they stayed warm, but getting out of the warm bed and coming downstairs to the cold was a rude awakening : )
