Snowday!!

Today we took the girls up north to play in the snow.
The weather was perfect and there was lots of
wonderful snow to be played in.
Here is Abi and Daddy are going for their first run
of the year! Despite all the unhappy faces Leah made she
really did have a good time. Abi is starting
the snowball fight!

Sledding Videos

Daddy and Leah

Leah was not so sure about sledding at first but
if you listen closely to the video you can hear her
really awesome belly laugh. She really did have a good
time even thought the pictures may reflect otherwise.

Abi had fun riding all by herself on the sled and tried
the tube but stuck to the sled for the most part.

Mr. Snowman

Here is the making of Mr. Snowman, Abi found the
eyes and nose(from the neighboring snowman, she tried to
take his arms too but I stopped her and we found our own).
She also found his hair!

Ta-da! That is one good lookin' man. By this point
Leah was done but had to take a pic of her with the man.
Here is a close-up so you can see the awesome hair-do! My
favorite part.

Photography by Abi

So Abi has been practicing her photography and I have to say she

is getting pretty good. The following shots have her name on them.
The one below is one of her favorites because she got her
foot in the shot.

Daddys Race

On the 17th Andy ran in the marathon for the first time!
His goal was to 1) finish it and 2) to finish in 4 hours! He did
both! His official time was 4 hrs and 6 minutes! Here
are a few pics from our day cheering him on.

Abi likes to have her picture taken so before getting
out of bed she asked if I would take a picture of her sleeping.
She's a happy sleeper. ;-)
After a bite to eat we put the finishing touches on
our posters and went out to cheer Daddy on!

Here we are at mile marker 20!! Daddy
stops to give a quick kiss and then off to the finish line.
He made it look so easy I may be inspired to do the
half next year. We will see about that.

I'm Flying!

Thanks Auntie Jen!

Christmas at Grammy's

Leah trying to fit in her Ariel suitcase, I told her if she
fits I'll send her to Grams and Gramps! The girls love to
play with both tea sets, they are a very popular
toy in our house right now.
We had Christmas with the family the day after
Christmas at Grammy and Grandad's house.
Riley and Robin are waiting very anxiously
to open presents at Grammy's house.

Opening presents at Grammy's house was fun,
we had lots of helpers to open gifts. Thanks Grammy and
Grandad, Auntie Amy, Uncle Mike, Lyn-Lyn, Jon-Jon and families!
