Oh what a snow....

So far we have had one fabulous snowy day. It was a saturday and Chris did not have work. We all hung out and Andrea braved the cold and loved playing in the snow. Ahleah would not touch the snow and wanted no part of being cold or playing in it. My girls are so different and so much fun!

Our Ginger bread house!

Andrea did an amazing job!!

For the love of Brillo

Who knew that Brillo boxes could be so much fun...Ahleah played with them for at least 45 minutes building the tower.

The day we went to see Santa!

Too cute. Waiting to see Santa!

I need to scan our picture of Santa then I will add it to the post! This was our annual trip with Courtney, Gavin and Chloe to see Santa at Bass Pro Shop in Harrisburg. The kids loved it and it was fun for the moms too!

Kinderhook Children's Center Christmas Program

Look at her smirk...

Just like her mommy she loves cookies......

Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I am thankful for good times and Happy Healthy Children.

Chris and I took the girls to visit my family in Towanda for the holiday. We had a great time. The girls loved every minute of our visit. Chris and I took some time to ourselves while the grandparents were willing to watch the little angels. In 2000 Chris met my parents for the first time when he joined us for Thanksgiving Dinner. My how time passes quickly.

Andrea's thanksgiving. She is the best and I love her free spirited interpretation of dinner.

Time flies and then its thanksgiving....

The time between Andrea's Birthday and Thanksgiving just passes so quickly it was a blur and I missed what happened!

All of Andrea's Birthday!

Happy Birthday Andrea! Andrea is loving her fancy cake and princess decorations!

With the presents!

Ahleah happy to celebrate Andrea's special day!

Andrea's Birthday began with a family party at our home. Her Nana, Pappy, Aunt Tammy, Uncle Andy, Aunt Katie, Uncle Dave, Aunt Jessie and Cousin Kyla came. Andrea had the best time! She loved her tea party theme and her tiered princess cake. She loved her gifts but most of all enjoyed her family time!

Andrea opening her presents!

Here she is petting the pony. Chris took the camera when he left so I did not get any pictures of her on the pony.

Here is Andrea with her cupcakes!

Here is our poor attempt of a group picture.

Andrea and the half eaten cupcake....

Andrea and Gavin on the hayride. Too cute!

The Barn Party! Andrea had a great mix of friends at her barn party. She invited several girls who used to go to her daycare but have graduated into kindergarten. She also invited several friends from her current daycare class and our neighborhood. The kids loved the open space,the pony ride, hay ride, pipe slide and hay maze. They also spent alot of time petting the pigs, sheep, and bunnies. It was a chilly but very sunny day. Andrea loved this party and all of her wonderful friends for making the whole day so special.

Andrea also had a party at the barn for her friends. She invited many friends from school who have already turned 5 and are in kindergarten. Andrea loved seeing them and also running like a nut to see all of the animals have a tractor ride and her very favorite part....Riding the pony!!

Happy Halloween!

Mommyb wiht Lele getting ready for the parade!
Andrea with the boys at the parade!

Sooo pretty!

Very elegant! I love her costume! She is a Queen!

The girls have had an action packed few weeks with tone of Halloween activities! They went to the Columbia Parade and visited the pumpkin patch and tonight they concluded the Halloween festivities with Trick or Treating! Both girls got a ton of candy.

Andrea was very pretty in her Queen costume. She looked like she could have come from the renascance fair. Her costume however was very long and in the rain very wet, and she wanted to run to keep up with her friends and kept tripping. Next year a shorter costume! She also did not want to hold our hands and it was difficult to keep track of her once it got dark. There were so many kids all over!

Ahleah did great she was so cute she wouldn't say trick or treat though so she said"Happy Halon" and "Thank you" at every door. She was not even scared when the treat givers were in costume. She loved it! I am amazed at how well Lele walked and held hands! She did great!

Dutch Wonderland!!

Andrea and Kayli with Duke the dragon they both had a great time and really knew what rides they wanted to ride as soon as we arrived!

Here is Andrea driving the car. She did a great job and the weather was pirfect.

Nothing like a little lovin' between friends!

Hands on House!

We went to the hands on house again with the girls. They never seem to get bored with it and ask to come whenever it rains. They were great and tired when we left. Pictures are very difficult as both of the girls are never still for and entire minute!
