Playing in the snow

Last weekend we went up to "Mountain Hood," as the girls call it, to play in the snow. It was a beautiful day for some family fun:-)

Fun with the Smiths

We had such a wonderful time with the Smith ladies! I miss them so much already

Silly dancing!

Outside fun with cousins.

Mash up blog

I have tons to do and little time (plus a bit of a cold) so here is a very short mash up blog.  Ready. Go:

We loved having the Smith ladies spend a few nights with us while they were in town.  I only teared up a *little* when I watched them drive off on Monday from Angie's (where we met up for another visit).

We had a GREAT time at Allen and Eryn's place for New Years.  Ryan Ross and family were down and it was so awesome to reconnect with everyone. 

Elsie is 18 months!!  She is walking more and more each day.  She is 97th percentile for height and 66th for weight, so staying right along her curve.  She is saying more than 30 words and so stinking cute. 

I have been working on a dinning room decorating makeover, which started with painting over the sage green (I also painted the living room and the office) a few months ago.  New art work, chandelier, and the latest touches, drapes and bookshelves.  I LOVE the new look!
