Snow, Snow, Snow, We love the SNOW!!

I am a little sad this year that this is the only snow we have really had. What is winter without sledding? I guess we are surviving but we took advantage of the little snow we did get and played for a long time. (I went a little picture crazy! :) )

Every time it snows Zoe wants to make a snowman. This wasn't the best snow so it was a little frustrating for her and her mom but we managed to make a little one. She was so excited!

I love when I take more than one picture Cale is always looking at Zoe in several of them just to see what she is doing. She loves to to do and say exactly what Zoe does.

This is what Micah did while we played outside. She took a great nap and I had to sneak in and get some pictures.

When she woke up we were still having fun playing outside so we bundled her up to enjoy in the fun. Only she wasn't so such she like it.

Actually this is exactly what she thought of it!

Big sister Zoe to the rescue!! She made her feel so much better about the snow, as long as she was holding her!

My Little Fakers!

Zoe and Cale had been playing and then they got so quite. This is how I found them when I came out. I thought they had actually gone to sleep. Thinking it was so cute I went to get my camera and when I came back Cale couldn't contain the smiles from coming out!!

More Micah........

I have been trying forever to get a picture of Micah on her knees. She loves to sit and play like this but every time I try for a picture she takes of crawling towards me. I enlisted the help of Zoe to finally get my pictures.

Micah loves her brown blanket. She will crawl towards her room and try to pull it out of her crib to get it. You get the best snuggles when are the one holding it. She loves to be all snuggled up when she goes to sleep but when go you in later she is usually uncovered and holding on to her blanket. Love it!

Mischievous Micah!

Micah was being so quite one day and it took me awhile to locate her in the house. She has found her new favorite place to play. .......... downloading the bathroom drawer. She looked so cute sitting there playing in her mess I had to get a picture. When she finally noticed me I got this cute little grin as if to say, "look at me!"

Thanksgiving Weekend

We headed to Montana this year for Thanksgiving. My parents were gone for my youngest brothers graduation from the Border Patrol Academy but we met my oldest Brother Rick, his son Tele, my brother Grant and his family, my sister and her family. It was kind of interesting being at my parents house taking care of things and not having them there but we had a good time. My girls love being outside and all there is to do.
Cale had tons of fun feeding the horses!

This is my favorite one of her feeding.

Micah and I had tons of time together. Her sisters were so entertained with cousins Micah enjoyed having me all to herself!

They had fun playing all of Grandma's drums in a band.

Reading nightime stories.

Of course making good use of the hottub.

and playing in the barn. The built a fort down the the haybails. I think I am still get hay out of Zoe's jacket!

We enjoyed several fun walks. This is Cale chasing after the cousins. She never gave up she just kept running after them yelling, "hey guys wait up." Every once in awhile they would come back for her.

While there we took the opprotunity to hike up the mountain and get our christmas tree. Brad scouted it out 1st and then we all walked up to cut it down. He did a pretty good job!

My niece Lydia took our family picture for us. Several of the other kids tried but this was the best we got!

Cale was tired and needed a ride home.

Zoe was sure she needed a little tree upstairs. Her and I had fun making decorations for her little tree.

Cale of course needed a tree too. When it got left at Grandma's house she wasn't very happy with us at all!

My Barnwood

I have wanted some barnwood for awhile so Brad posted an ad on Criagslist for me and I received a call from a guy about a barn he had that collapsed. So on Saturday we loaded up and headed to see if we could get some wood off this barn. It was such a fun day!! The girls had so much fun playing and hanging out in the truck when they got to cold. They were so good the whole time! We got a good load of wood so I could build a backdrop for pictures and Brad is making some picture frames. We can't wait to go back this spring/summer for some more!
I love how the pictures turned out.

This is the 1st picture I took. Then realized she had the binkie in and had her take it out but of course this is the best picture.

Could not get all 3 girls to look at me at the same time! Ugh!

Brad working hard for my barnwood.
