The "Chalet"








On Sat. Curt invited us to the "chalet"he was house-sittting. We had a fun afternoon playing with the coyote-dog and hiking through the woods.

Snow Days!





The best part of winter is definetly snow days! The kids had a blast outside!

Saturday with Santa



Lucas is so excited about Santa and has SO many questions this year, yet he is still very timid! He wanted to do everything ELSE first then go see Santa. Thank goodness for his cousins' persuasions!

Telling Santa....


I love Lucas' proud face in this one, like "Look where I'm sitting" but still a bit frightened.



Kate, on the other hand, has a "don't even think about it" approach. She says, "I no sit on Sinta's lap" as she shakes her head "no". But almost every night she says, "I want to see Sinta." Go figure!



Candyland


Our Black Friday started in Candyland at Derby Dinner! We had a great breakfast, Kate with most of it on her shirt, and enjoyed the show!

Kate's 2nd Birthday







We had a simple celebration for Kate's "happy day". She's not big on crowds right now so we grilled some hot dogs and had a nice fire. She had a great time. She loves kitties so we did a "Hello Kitty" cake. You might notice the bow....I had to bribe her by saying, "You can only eat cake if you have a bow in your hair," it was surprisingly effective, but what happened to it after cake, I'll never know! It ended up being a very fun evening! Most importantly Kate had a great "happy day". She is still telling us everyday that "I 2. It my happy day." Not sure when her "happy day" is going to end!

Playing in the leaves


Kate was a sneak-attacker while Nate and Lucas were trying to make a big pile. She would speedy-fast be in the middle of it!
