Good and bad...the holiday season is here in full force this year! Here are some highlights! We have been bombarded with snow since the 1st of December. Today is the first official snow day for the kids and technically winter has not even started yet. Today's snowfall is absolutely beautiful to look at. The other ones seemed to be mixed with more sleet....which has caused our snowblower to not work so well:( I always think of the movie Narnia on days like today...maybe because we have a lamp post in our yard:) Todd finished his first semester of his Executive MBA program and now has a much needed break this month ....thank goodness! I participated in my second annual Christmas cookie exchange with my small group from church. We each brought 8 dozen of one kind of cookie and then went home with a wide variety! Megan loved helping me bake...although I did catch her sneaking M&M's when I turned my back on her:) so cute! The boys just finished their first trimester of school and both brought home awesome report cards!! Nathan was tested for the gifted and talented program and was found to be gifted in the area of general intellectual and math. So if you know Todd you know Nathan got that from him not me:) We are so proud of all of them! Megan is enjoying the holiday season and loves to shop with me! I think I should be worried...since she also has a shoe obsession. She has become quite a chatter box too! We also have had a couple rounds of sickness with the kids too...the other bad side of this time of year! Enjoy the following pictures of the beginning of winter and the holiday season!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Megan holding a Christmas bear... you press a button and it moves and tells you a story. She loves this bear. The kids got it from my Aunt Dorthy last Christmas. The following pictures are highlights from our snow fall today!
