Sledding

We had Brian's parents for our Christmas celebration last weekend.  A highlight of the weekend was new sleds and snow to try them out on.  Even Katie who normally does not like snow had a ball!


Grandma Prichard with our cute cousin Alexa!


I can still hear in my mind Brianna laughing as she went down the hill.  If only I can remember that laugh in years to come:)

Snow Fun

If you are looking for a white Christmas our house would be the place to come.  So much snow this week and after so many hours inside the cousins and our kids had to get out and play!

Day two of the storms!

Cousin Abby working very hard for Aunt Teri

Riley Lynn lives for this weather...says he is moving to Alaska one day!

Visiting Santa



A moment to see the man from the North.  I was so hoping for a picture of the four but Katie was very scared of Santa until the end.  Some believe and some do not but all were willing to participate!

Giving Back


One of the greatest values I hope to pass on to our children is to give back.  It seems this time of year brings out the "I wants" to an extreme point.  For awhile I can take it and then I had to shut down the "I wants" and try to create the giving feeling in the house.  As one of our actions to give back each child picked an angel from the angel tree.  I have to say in the shopping trip with all four "shopping" I wasn't sure my point was getting across to them but I am sure hoping so.

Snow Day and Decorating





This is one of my favorite decorations. Brings back memories of my Grandma.

Due to our weather we had a snow day this week which proved the perfect time to decorate.  The kids all did very well doing this.  It is fun to see where all the ornaments are hung and how the levels of them change from year to year as they grow!

Tree Hunting

I am a little behind in posting some pictures.  Last weekend we went on our annual tree hunt at our friends house. We had plenty of snow to join us this year!  Always a very fun day with friends!

Once again Andy got to carry the saw..maybe as our way to insure he would follow along "joyfully"!

Brianna loved her time with friends and did well in the cold...and it was cold!

We found our tree!
