It snowed





 
It did indeed. After the kids got home from school we decided to get all bunded up, and a half hour (so many layers!) later we were ready to head out.  And yes Mckay is wearing pink snow pants. That's what happens when you follow two sisters. We had a good time and Mckay loved eating the snow best of all. :)

I'm 6!


 
On the eve of her birthday, she was running around the house saying, "Goodbye 5 and Heellloo 6!" over and over.  Happy Birthday to our sweet Sadie. So glad she is part of our family. She keeps us laughing with all her antics and quirky little remarks and her honest perspective on life.

I'm in love.....

 with this beauty. It's funny the things that really get me pumped these days. But I'm pumped
about this. I've wanted one for awhile but didn't want to spend the money.
But on black friday I found a smokin' deal so Merry Christmas to me.:)
And of course I couldn't wait until Christmas to bust it open...
I've been beating, whisking, and kneading to my little heart's content.
It's just so handy.
Jake said I was "glowing" during the first use. I know I'm such a nerd.
I put it to good use the other day when we set out to make neighbor gifts,
my plan was to make 4 different kinds and cookies and some toffee and package them up.
Half way through I started to rethink my plan, it was a lot of cookies!

all ready to be packaged
 
ready for delivery!
The kids loved riding on the 4 wheeler and then running
to the doors and delivering.
I love this time of year.

I'm 2!

 

This is a couple weeks late, but this little guy had a birthday. We had
a little party at Grandma and Grandpa's. Grandma made a cool
tractor cake. He loved it! So crazy to me that he is two already!
 
 


Santa came to town

McKay wasn't impressed
