Hairy Christmas!!

Hey everyone! So, my girls' hair is finally getting long enough to do some fun things with. Yesterday was our Christmas program at church, so I thought I would do a long time tradition in my family and put them in sponge curlers. So, Saturday night we got their hair all wet and then we put them in the rollers. Sunday morning, Voila! They wore their cute little outfits we got for Lindsay's wedding and were the talk to the ward! Tate was mighty cute too, though no curly hair. I wanted to color their hair red and call them Annie! The other picture is just a cute one of Norah with some pig tails. She loved them and wouldn't stop messing with them! We hope everyone has a great holiday season! Merry Christmas!

The first of many...

Well, today was the first of many snow days for school. Macy got the day off. We have had our first Nor'easter of the year. It started last night and has continued throughout the day today. I think we still have a few more hours of snow still to come! The news has predicted somewhere between 6-12 inches of snow this time. Well, we decided to take advantage of the time and get all bundled up to really enjoy it. Here are some of the pictures I took. I tried to make sure you could get an idea of the depth, but I'm not sure if it's going to translate on camera or not. It really is beautiful and the kids had a blast.

Christmas Decorations

So, we've been getting ready for Christmas the last few days. I think we are pretty close. Not in the getting gifts part, but in the decorating part. Here are some pictures: the tree, ornaments the kids made and other decorations. Enjoy! Merry Christmas!

The event of the year!!!

So, as you all know, we just returned from our trip to Utah for Lindsay and Nate's wedding! It was so great! Lindsay was beautiful in her dress, Nate, you clean up nicely too! ;) We went all over Utah! I don't think I've ever driven so many miles in such a short time. We flew to Vegas then throughout the week we: Drove to St. George, Provo, Ogden, Brigham City, Salt Lake, Provo, Salt Lake, Provo, St. George and back to Vegas! WHEW!! (Did I miss any??) We had a blast seeing everyone and spending time together during Thanksgiving and the wedding festivities! Lindsay and Nate are on their way to Brooklyn, NY. We are so excited that they will be that close to us! We hope to see them often!! Congratulations Lindsay and Nate!!!! We love you!

Visiting the Koyles

Well, we just got back from our fantastic trip to Utah. It was a whirlwind trip, but so much fun. We went out there for Lindsay and Nate's wedding. For those of you who don't know, Lindsay is Dustin's sister. It was beautiful, but I will get to that with the next post. While we were there, we were able to visit my brother Chad and his wife Jenifer's house. They have the cutest kids! We all had a great time. We got there on Thanksgiving night around 6pm. The kids immediately started playing and totally got along with each other great! The next morning Chad made yummy french toast and I made the bacon! It was YUM-O! We celebrated Erin's 3rd birthday that morning and then had Mexican for lunch! There are no Mexican Restaurant's here in Vermont! Go Figure! Anyway, it was a blast and we got some really cute pictures of the kids. Thanks to Chad and Jenifer for letting us stay with them! We loved it!
