More snow

Snow!!!!!!!!!!

It was snowing a tiny bit today at our house. Not a lot by any means but it was really fun for us since we never get ANY!! I believe more is on its way this afternoon. I wish it would stick to the ground so it would LOOK like it was snowing. Heres a few pictures of it and a video!

Reese loves her nativity!

We got out our Christmas stuff and now Reese is loving playing it. She sleeps with the camel and calls "Mary" married...as in "do you want to play with Married" haha. I think playing with this set is helping her understand the meaning behind Christmas.

Its christmas time

We've never really decorated outside for Christmas. I use to work, Aaron was working and it was more hassle than it was worth. Then the last couple of years our neighbor decorated our house. Yes, you read that right. The older lady next door would put lights in our yard and around our tree and would put a GIANT Santa in our yard. It was actually an old hot air balloon that she would use for a blow up decoration. Massive doesn't explain it. Heres a picture...(and thats our sweet neighbor and Reese when they were tiny)




But this year we decided to do some of our own decorations. We put some colored lights in the bushes. The white lights were all sold out but now I think I like the colored. They are different from what everyone else uses. We also got some (smaller) blow up things ourselves. The girls love it. I think (tomorrow??) we might do some lights ON the house. We'll see how Aaron feels about that :)

Heres some pictures of our sweet girls.





We also put up our tree. It still needs a lot of work. I was going to buy some more balls and special things for it but the girls are both sick. So far it just has balls and bows on it. Heres some pictures of the girls by the tree.

Thanksgiving and sickness

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Everyone came here and there was a lot of great food. Poor Reese woke up Wednesday afternoon with a fever. I called everyone but no one wanted to cancel. Reese had a cough and a fever. She acted fine though?? She slept in our bed for 2 nights coughing and sniffling right on me. The first night she looked at me and said "I think something is wrong with me nose." So cute and sad! LOL

Thursday night Saige woke up coughing and burning up. She came to our bed also but wouldn't stop bothering Reese. Reese turned to Aaron and asked to "please go read books in her room". She was DONE with Saige bothering her (haha). Saiges fever and cough were a lot worse though so we took her to the doctor. Thankfully it wasn't in her lungs or anything scary. Just a nasty cold and cough.


I'm glad it happened THIS weekend though...nothing better ruin my polar express day! :)

Corn prints

We did a little craft the other day called corn prints. It was fun but it didn't hold the girls interest long. Saige was trying to eat the paint and Reese just liked getting her dirty. But it was something to do at home I guess. :)

And I asked Reese to say "cheese" and she gave me this dramatic head pose.

Thanksgiving Feast

Heres a couple of pictures of Reese at school for her Thanksgiving feast. They came in and sang us a song. And later they sat down and said their prayers and got to eat together.
