Snowy Weather

On Friday, December 16 our ward had a fun Christmas party. The Primary put on a live nativity. Emily was one of the angels.

At the end of the party the kids got to see Santa. Emily wasn't super impressed...

Leslie wasn't either!

Abby is 8.5 months old now and cuter than ever.

Leslie is totally obsessed with her baby dolls. Here she is feeding her baby and talking on her cell phone...just like her mom. ;-)

Emily loves to play princesses and never ceases to amaze us with her imagination. She decided to play Rapunzel when she found this awesome package wrapping. 

On Monday, December 19 we took around Christmas treat plates to friends at church. We made sugar cookies, chocolate m&m cookies, chocolate covered pretzels, chocolate peanut butter cups, and homemade oreos. Talk about heartburn!

On Wednesday, December 21 I went grocery shopping at Wal-Mart and ran into an old friend from high school, Rachel Martel. We hadn't seen each other since we were 17 (so 15 years). It was so fun to catch up with a blast from the past!

On Christmas Eve we went up to Horseshoe Bend and hung out at Joel and Melanie's for a while. Here are cute little Caroline and Emily all ready to play in the snow!

They had so much fun playing in the snow.

The men played football in the snow (even dad!)

It got pretty intense!

Emily and Greg bought me some awesome Christmas earrings that just happened to be small Christmas ball ornaments. Natalie had us all laughing when she put on her "earrings" that were actual ball ornaments from off of the Christmas tree. Pretty funny!

All ready for church on Christmas Day (Greg is taking the picture).

Emily and Leslie playing with their new toys.

New winter coats for Christmas...I guess we're not in Vegas anymore!

And a little beanie for Abby!

We're kind of obsessed with snow here. Emily made a snowflake out of ham at lunch.

Greg got stuck in the snow on his way to work.

Greg skiing at Tamarack last weekend.

Our girls with their Grandma Flake. Happy Winter!
