Skipped a Whole Month

Oops....well, it's been on my mind to update my blog for several weeks.  It's amazing how time goes by and a month and a half later, I post something.  Anyways, these are some random pics, but new ones nonetheless.

December Tidbits

We decorated our house and put up our tree last weekend which was a lot of fun.  Grace was really excited and loved helping put on the ornaments.  It's so fun watching her as she learns more about Christmas and gets excited about holiday traditions.  A few days ago she asked if Jesus would be coming over on his birthday to celebrate.....aaawwwweeee:)

We went with the artificial tree this year just for simplicity with Anna scooting around and putting EVERYTHING in her mouth.  I figured that a fir needle down the hatch would be a bit of a problem!:)  It's not quite the same, but it works.  Here's Grace putting on Daddy's favorite ornament - the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile....:):)

We like to take drives at night to check out Christmas lights.  Here's a house in our neighborhood that is decked out.  This picture doesn't even do it justice.  It practically lights up the road even when it's super dark.  It's my favorite house to pass, so I try to go by it everyday on the way home from Marilyn's so that Grace can see it.

Fall Fun

November has been a beautiful month for doing yard work, and as as most of you know, we have lots of raking to do at our house. We couldn't have asked for better weather to get it done. It's been so nice to have the girls outside before the long winter ahead. I guess November was the October we never had!
