December

Our December has started off with a BANG. December 1st (Jared's birthday), we were moving into our new house! Two days later, we left for Milwaukee for a family wedding.

All dressed up for the wedding!

Upon returning home, we spent the week painting and unpacking (next post), and then in our insanity, braved the 8th largest blizzard in the history of the Midwest to get a Christmas tree...

Ready to conquer the elements

Brutal...

and insane.

The girls with their favorite man in the world!

How can this many people ALL be so crazy?

Decorating the tree!

Please note the amazing ornament placement. This is my FAVORITE Christmas tree yet...

Our picture perfect picture window.

Each morning brings a new delightful present!




On Wednesday, we brought the girls to their first movie at the movie theater!
Please note: they both wore their Tangled dresses that they got for their birthday. So funny :)


We saw Tangled (HIGHLY recommend!) and they have not stopped talking about it since.

And THAT has been our December so far.
Now, on to Christmas...
Here we go.

Snow Much Fun

Guess what we woke up to this morning?


The view out our back door


Instant winter


Heavily laden branches bent over under the weight of the snow almost touching the ground

"I wanna get on my snow coat, and my snow mittens and go outside in da snow, Mommy."

 First steps in the 2010 winter wonderland

She was so delighted, she was giggling.

Makin snowballs!


"I like snow, Mama!"

Snow Park

There is a point when the snow ceases to be a relevant excuse NOT to go to the park. Even when it's buried under a couple feet of snow. Trudging through the mounds of snow while hefting two children and a watermelon, one laborious step at a time, beats staying in the basement hole you call home, losing every shred of sanity you have left...
Jazi's feet even touched snow!

Swinging...

Is there anything in the world more fun than this!?

Snow Day!

We got dumped on yesterday, so naturally it was time to bust out the sled! Unfortunately it was BITTER cold out, so our escapade only lasted about 20 minutes. But we had fun while it lasted!

All bundled up!
Ready to sled!

It was so bitter out that even our eye lashes were frosted after 20 minutes!

Snow Day

With all the snow we've gotten this week, we brought Sophia out for her first sledding adventure!
