Our Christmas

This year was crazy busy
It is so great to have so much family live so close
at the same time it's nuts because we have SOOOOO many people to see at the holidays
It took me a while to post this post because I was so upset with my self
for letting it all get me too stressed out to the point where I
didn't take very many pictures. I regret that more then I can say
Live and learn
Next year will be different
Don't get me wrong, it was still a great Christmas
Here's what you've been waiting for =)

Shocking

Does anyone else notice that there is a lot more
static electricity? We keep shocking each other and
Josh likes to make the kids hair stick up =)

Dreaming of a white Thanksgiving

There is something so magical about falling snow





The snow kept falling and falling and falling
It was so fun!



Jacob was confused and excited to play in the snow. 
We don't have any snow gear since it rarely snows
and when it does it's not much
so he was triple layered if not more
He would play till his fingers got cold, 5-10 minutes
then come in and get warm, 5-10 minutes then go back out.
This lasted a few hours






 Jacob thought it was a good idea to sweep the snow



This is what Peyton thought of the snow
"It's cold. I don't like it. Get me away from this"


There we go, much better.
Let's just keep this door shut.



It seemed strange to see my Fall display with snow on it



 It took me a few hours to figure out why the birds were attacking my
corn stocks on my fall display, then I light went on...
DAH! They are starving! Their food is covered under 5 inches of snow
So I threw some bread and pumpkin seeds outside and it was gone QUICK!
