Busy Weekend!


This picture above was taken at our church's Christmas Tea.  It's for women of the church (of all ages) and is a great way to start the Christmas season!  I took Chloe and April along this year.  I curled their hair before we went and they had fancy dresses on too.  April's hair held those curls really well -- you'll see in the next few photos.  She wanted me to do it again after her bath - she wanted "bouncy hair" she said :)


Next up was Saturday's Gingerbread house activity - also at our church.  It was great fun, and here are our two final products.  April's is the top picture, Chloe's is second.



Based on Peter's shirt, can you guess what we did on Sunday?


That's right! Got our tree :)  Peter and I stayed home because I suspected he was getting pink-eye .... so the girls went with Kevin and picked the most perfect tree!


A little time-out for egg nog in Christmas cups is always a good idea. And gives the parents a few minutes to get the tree in the stand and not crooked ;)


This little boy LOVES watching the train go round and round! :)





Every ornament we own is on this tree.  I mean, even the ones that I wouldn't put on every time, these girls found and put on the tree. Here is April's contribution -- three ornaments on the same branch :)



It's beautiful.

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...

I hope he's not moving in....
