blister of 2009






After Shane got home from plowing snow all night (and day and night) Andie says, "Dad! You missed the blister!" :) I think we got 16 inches or something and then blowing blizzard conditions. The kids are loving it - Shane plowed a huge pile right at the curve in our drive and they climb up and slide down, making up games. Sawyer is frustrated that he can't climb up, so I have to lift him up a little ways so he can feel "big" too. He loves to do what the big kids are doing. On the blizzardy day, though, he didn't want to go out. Which is just fine with me, because by the time I get 3 kids dressed in snow pants, coats, boots, mittens, etc, the first one is ready to come back in as I am finally coming out with the littlest one! Ah, well. It is beautiful!

a little Christmas joy...






I love these pictures. They did not turn out how I pictured them in my mind, but still precious!

Don't push that button!




Shane was able to sneak the kids in to watch a FED EX plane being unloaded and then ride on the big loading elevator and the tug cars that pull the loads away. They also got to peek at the cockpit, which they thought was great. They are such goofballs - can you see why it is so hard to get a decent picture? :)
