Denise is always so good to volunteer to
watch the boys for us if we wanna go out and have a date while in Norman. We left on Monday and went to see a movie since we didn't know if we were going to be able to leave on Tuesday due to "snow". Steven found this Hitchcock poster for a new scary movie coming out and decided he would practice his skills at acting. He did pretty well.The boys love to come to Nana and Poppa's house because they enjoy playing with both of them so much and all their cousins. There is always someone to play with, either big or small, and they never get bored. It's a weekend when I am not really needed because either Eli, Nana, Poppa, Sophie, Lola, or Rachel are taking care of things. I love that:)
So, this is the reason we were thinking we wouldn't be able to leave on Tuesday. Monday night when we went to bed the weather men were saying 5-8 inches of snow with 25-35MPH winds. Not something fun to be out in on Christmas day. We have a tradition though at the Kueny house that someone, not everyone because of the kids, but usually some one's get to go to a movie for a few hours. This Christmas the movie selection was poor (we all agreed on this) so Steven and I found one that we were wanting to see at the Dollar Movie. Nice one! Too bad the movie was terrible....End of Watch with Jake Gyellenhall (not even worth the $2). We braved this 1 1/2 inches of snow like it was nothing though. That "blizzard" of Christmas 2012 
wasn't going to stop us from wasting $2 and 2 1/2 hours of our lives. No way Jose! We each walked away with some pretty awesome gifts. I think the best one was Bob suprising Denise with a super special trip to New York City this Spring. She has always wanted to go and has never gone. All the kids went in together and purchased both of them some much needed luggage and Rachel included a NYC subway map inside the luggage to give away the present. Nope, Nanna was still not getting it. Bob just finally had to say "I'm taking you to New York City. You pick the date." Then the tears came and she finally realized. It was fun to watch!
Also fun to watch were the boys getting their gifts. They loved everything they got but I had some favorites that I
knew they were super excited about. Owen got an OU jersey, which he put on immediately and wore till pajama time. alligator Stompeez, and a few other small things. Will got art supplies, paint, paint brushes, easel paper, a neat golf game (that hs loves playing with anyone who breathes), and a Bigfoot shirt. I loved
that shirt and made him proudly display it on his chest right away. It's hard not to become "A Believer" in this house and family because of all the Bigfoot facts and talks. I am still holding on though to not believing. Don't know how much longer that will be the case........
