Yes, it's been a while, so I warn you now....lots of pictures and some commentary:)

This year we'll make one for the reindeer to eat their veges on.

And some inside activities....

Random house picture with snow :)

Elf on the Shelf....one of his hiding places

Baby Jesus's birthday cake....served on the plate above that we made for Santa.

It's a train, of course!

Another craft that we can keep for next year and since they didn't want to pose for this picture I suggested "funny faces"...works every time!

Chloe celebrated her 1st birthday

An afternoon at the mall with mom

Spring gymnastics

Friends over for some sledding.

We have the perfect hill; we make it all they way down to the mail box.

So I say to Drake, "Lets go, put your shoes on."  After we arrive I notice the shoes he chose.

Black goes with everything...even camouflage:)

The boys watching some morning TV.

Dane that CAN'T be comfortable!
