This brings us to now. Hope your days have been less eventful & more fun! We are trying to keep our chins up and praying hard! Pictures of these events will hopefully follow sooner than later. Time is not something that I (S) seem to have much of now. How about some pressure on J to post?

SC has a birthday...

SC had a birthday early in January...it was pretty low-key given her age, but we still enjoyed having fun with a few family and friends.

SC was so excited to see new things...mostly the boxes, I am sure.

M & E came over...it was nice to have them there to celebrate.

R was very interested in SCs new toys. They gave SC a RED outfit. She looks GREAT in it!

SC loved the balls!!

Chocolate cake anyone?

R and SD munching on the birthday treats!

R and M cheesing for the camera! R totally chose a rootbeer float over CHOCOLATE cake.

J and SV, she's serious about her treats!

Did you enjoy that E?

The aftermath of the birthday girl. I think she enjoyed it all! Although, later that night, we had a stomach bug (SC & I).

Snow time...early January

Late December/Early January gave us a LOT of snow. We have LOVED being in it and the girls like to help J shovel. YEAH!

J standing in the middle of our yard.

The old blue van was a little neglected since we don't drive it every day.

The other half of our front yard...pretty, huh?

SD had a school assignment to take this stuffed snowman with her wherever she went. She helped J shovel the snow, so we took a few pictures.

This one was totally posed.
