Christmas Card Photoshoot

Oh how fun.....









You'll have to wait and see if we got a good one!

Graham Cracker "Gingerbread" Houses


The Dance's came over for a fun night of house decorating. We had a great time eating candy and licking frosting off our fingers!



Stephanie's House




Ashlee's House


Konrad's House


Kimberlynn's House



Samantha's House

Doug's House (notice the Santa on the roof, the Christmas tree and couch in the living room, a car in the garage, and a bed in the bedroom) My brother-in-law is so creative!

Let it Snow

We woke up to snow on Saturday morning. The girls ate their breakfast then ran out the door to play...



Only in the Northwest is this much snow actually enough to play in...


I didn't even want to send them out, but you never know if you'll see it again, so you have to take advantage of it.


That afternoon it really started coming down, so Kimber and Sam headed back out to play. Kimber made her first snowman all by herself...here she is rolling the first big ball..


The final product.


Family Fun

Here are some pictures from our Thanksgiving weekend...



Great Grandpa Riding and Sam looking at pictures



Kallie, Peter, and Grandpa watching football


Grandpa and girls playing under the table.



Alli, Michelle, and Makenna



The girls being crazy

Bentley



The Siamese twin girls. They did this all themselves (coats are buttoned together)

Unfortunately, I didn't take one picture on Thanksgiving...I even had my camera with me the whole day. I just never pulled it out! We had dinner at the Boice's (Konrad's aunt) and had a great time, thanks Marcy!

And First Place Goes To...

Kimberlynn received 1st place for her Reflections entry entitled "I can make a difference by cleaning the earth" (I would post a picture of it, but they kept it..you'll have to wait until we get it back to see it...sorry) Her drawing goes on to the next level of judging (all the Kent schools). It's amazing what can be accomplished 10 minutes before the bus comes on the day the entry is due.....
