Let it Snow

I got to go with Hallie to preschool before Thanksgiving for her Day of Celebration, it was fun. Thanksgiving was nice - got the opportunity to spend time visiting with family. About a week after we had our first snowfall, there's a picture of that...probably about 10 inches. Then last week we were dumped on again and had a blizzard warning in effect from Wed afternoon through Fri morning. In total we've gotten about 25 inches in just over a week. I'm hoping that trend slows down. We visited Santa at the Pancake Breakfast...it cracked me up b/c I think he was the replacement Santa...maybe in jr. high. The picture turned out cute....of course I had to accompany Paige in the photo. Oh well. We decorated a gingerbread house, which the girls really enjoyed. I'm looking forward to Christmas.

Thanksgiving is Right Around the Corner

Hello! Clearly I'm slacking on the picture uploading. Here's some pics from Halloween. We went with a sea creature theme - Hallie was a jellyfish and Paige was an octopus. The girls went Trick-or-Treating at Davenport during the week, braved the rain at Grand Valley Friday night, and then we just stayed in on Saturday. It was rather chilly, so we finally carved our pumpkins and the girls were excited to pass out the candy. We had a whopping 4 kids come to the door, so it was a quiet evening. Things are going well here. We're going to redo the basement, work started late last week, so that is exciting. I can't wait for that to be more of a functional space, particularly for all the toys! Tomorrow I get to spend the afternoon at preschool with Hallie for her Day of Celebration. Work Tuesday and then start my Thanksgiving holiday. Excited to visit with family. Happy Thanksgiving from my little princesses!
