Snow Days!

Avery was testing out the boats at the Sports Show. And then her and Chloe decided to try out the different RV beds! I think they found one they liked!

I worked really hard to get a good picture of the girls together. Instead I got 2 decent ones of them alone and an ok one of the 3 of us. Pictures are getting a little harder now that Harper can just walk away. Avery always tries really hard to hold her back but that usually makes both of them have not happy faces!
We went to dinner with some great friends and then to try out the new yogurt place in town, Orange Leaf. It was wondeful...definitely recommend it!




We have had SO many snow days!! We are on our 4th one in 2 weeks and it is looking like we might have another one later this week. It has been great being home with the kids though. Avery loves playing out in all of the snow! Erik took Avery and Chloe out sledding one day. It was too cold to go to the big hill but they had a great time on the little bump in the front yard! Harper likes to stand at Avery's window and watch them.






Hope everyone is staying warm!

Happy New Year!

We had a big cookie decorating party to start off the holiday season. It was a full house but they had a good time. There were 8 big kids and 5 under the age of one! The kids did a book gift exchange and all played really well together.

Harper got baptized the week before Christmas. It was a special day and we were very blessed to have so much family there to celebrate with us.




I did not take any pictures on Christmas day! I don't know what happened there?? But we had a wonderful holiday and a great break from school! We spent a lot of time with family and friends. It all went so fast though.
This is from the last family gathering we had on New Year's Day. Avery and Chloe were playing "camp out" under the dining room table and they decided that their little sisters wanted to play too! Emma and Harper did not last very long but they had fun while they were there.
Too cute not to share!
We hope everyone had a great Christmas and we wish you all a Happy New Year!!
PS-one of my many resolutions is to be better about this:)
