White Christmas

We normally don't have this much snow in Kansas. Brad had so much fun pulling the girls around in the sled. They were laughing so hard. Ella was fascinated by the snow. She was upset when it was time to go inside. :)

Gingerbread House

You sure can't tell from the serious faces, but the girls had a lot of fun making their gingerbread house this year! We went the easy route and bought a kit. They were so cute, they tried to make their house look exactly like the one on the box. I think they were pretty close.

Big Day

We had such a great weekend! Brad graduated from Law School! Grandma and Grandpa Daybell came to celebrate with us. Our kids were so excited to see their Dad graduate. I think they were a little surprised to see him dressed up in regalia. Addie turned to me and said, "Wow, Dad is so handsome, I wish I could give him a kiss." It was a neat ceremony and reception. The day was so much fun.

Ice Storm

There is ice everywhere. The trees are beautiful. Addison was so excited to go outside to "build a snowman". She could not believe that it was ice. We let her go outside and see it for herself. She was very surprised. She kept trying to pick up "snow" but the ground was solid ice.

What is this?

Now, normally I wouldn't get worried about cloud formation, but I do live in KANSAS. Tonight, during dinner, we looked out the window to see this. What is this?!? The sirens did not go off, but this thing lingered near our house for about an hour! Yikes.

Sisters

Our little Ella has started crawling! She is on the move constantly and is busy all day long. I love this stage, she wants to see and touch everything. She is especially interested in our Christmas tree. :) Tonight, I heard two panicked sisters yelling from their bedroom, "Help, Ella is stuck." Ella had somehow ended up in the little cradle and had her legs twisted. She was still as happy as can be. I went to get my camera and by the time I got back into their bedroom, the three of them were rocking out of control!! It scared me to death and they thought it was hilarious. I just hope they can all make it through childhood without serious injury! Kids are fun.
