Zoe's Snow Pics December 2009

Kili came over yesterday and took some pics of Zoe in the snow... I believe Cole is becoming more and more like his father everyday because we couldn't get him to go out and have pics taken too. Enjoy!

Dad and Daughter's Special Time Together

Zoe always chooses to have Dad do her nails (both feet and hands)... but today they decided to also do makeup. I love to sneak in and take pics during this special time... I have to say that today Zoe was all fixed up with no where to go... they even put on the body glitter! If anything ever happens to me.... please do not let Todd do my makeup!

Breakfast with Santa

The kids and I had the chance to have breakfast with Santa this morning at the fire station. The kids wait for this day all year and really enjoy themselves... because we can play fun games after we eat! This is also the first year that Zoe has sat on Santa's lap... she always sits on Mrs. Claus' lap and never ventures over to see Santa. She thought it was very funny when she told Santa that she wanted an iPod... and Santa said that loves to groove to music with the elves!

Roscoe playing in the snow

These pics don't really show him wandering off into the drifts, but he was trying to dig a walnut out of the snow... You can also see that he has grown since we got him... from 6lbs to 24lbs!

More Snow Pics

See how high the snow is piled on our cement pillar and railing?? It really shows how much snow is really out there!

You can hardly see our sandbox around the bottom of the tree!

Snow Storm

We had a snow day yesterday... 15" within 24 hours and I am not even sure it took the whole 24 hours to dump on us as it might have been closer to 18 hours. Todd was plowing early in the morning and the blade broke, so he decided to try to make it to work and get the blade fixed. After he fought the roads out of Lena.... it was clear sailing as Hwy 20 was completely clear. He did make it back about 2 hours later just to spend the next 5 hours plowing some more. I didn't have any daycare kids, so I also enjoyed the snow day! The kids spent the whole day outside playing in the snow and didn't mind the cold one bit! They had a snowball fight with the neighbor kids and then enjoyed some time sliding down the huge mounds of snow.

Roscoe loves the snow also... you know it is bad when he wakes up at 2:30 in the morning during a blizzard and wants to go out... only to find out that we spent 15 min. outside playing in the snow and he didn't even do any of his "duties". He will jump in any amount of snow even if he is buried... Todd had to rescue him once because he couldn't get out. We did shovel him paths through the snow (just like we used to with Magic), but he doesn't use them very often... he would rather submerge himself into the snow every time! I am trying to take pics today when he goes out and will post... as it is just so darn cute to see a puppy in the snow!

Winter is here... We woke up this morning to -3 degrees! Gotta love this weather!

I See You...

The kids were out playing last Sunday and I was in the house trying to clean. I turned around and this is what I saw at the window... she was having a lot of fun watching me and making goofy hand gestures.
