holiday 2013

Not very well organized but wanted to pass some pictures on 

Santa sent us a new elf this year named "Verde"  she was a little less busy as Freckles last year, but still super sweet. 

Mom and Adalynn fed the reindeer on Christmas Eve

 

 Just a few awesome pictures of the littlest man. 

We were able to hang around and watch a few holiday movies. 

We had some colder weather here too so kids in hats are just cute!

William had his music performance.  He was just as shy as last year. 

He also had a Christmas party at school. 

Mom and Dad got Adalynn a tea set and mom sewed the picnic blanket.  You can also see the boots Santa brought Adalynn. 

William got a remote control from Mom and Dad

William was super sweet and earned money to buy a gift for sister.  Here he is explaining what everything was.  

Caleb had a ton of fun with the gift wrap. 

Santa brought William a bike now that he knows how to ride one. 

Adalynn loved to wear santa hats!

This was a quick family pic at Thanksgiving, but thought I would share. 

Lost another one

Lost our first tooth

You can't tell from the picture, but we have lost our first tooth.  William's bottom two permenant teeth actually came in a few months ago but they came in behind his baby tooth.  A few weeks ago though his baby teeth started wiggling so each night we would try and pull it out.  Tonight though it finally popped out.  Ryan and I almost lost our lunch but kept it together for William's sake :). 

 

 

After we put the kids in bed tonight one of us had to run to the store and buy a pack of gum so that the "tooth fairy" could visit.  Crazy that we didn't have any paper money in the whole house. 

Winter Wonderland

We have now been home for three days due to snow and ice and there is a good chance that we might be home tomorrow too!   Here are a few pics of our winter fun from today. 

Vehicle Parade

William's school has been studying transportation this week so they celebrated Friday with a vehicle parade. Each child was asked to bring a "unique" vehicle made out of a cardboard box.  It was really cool to see all the different vehicles that the kids made. 

There are 130 kindergarteners in Willam's school so I won't put all the pictures on here, but I will share some of the more unique vehicles.

   

  

 Here is Williams vehicle.  It is a recycling truck.  It has all the parts including a door on the back that opens to put the "trash" in. 

Daddy was able to come see the parade too!  We are so blessed that both Ryan and I can both tweek our schedule when need be to be at events like this. 

 





Tea Party

We had a great time today having a tea party! Just had to share some photos.
