Snow Snow Snow

I really hope this winter isn't going to turn out like last winter with record-breaking amounts of snow, two ice storms, and lots of cold temperatures. However, living in the Midwest and Iowa, it's part of the story with winter! So, we'll do our best to enjoy it. Will's already anxious to make a twin for Frosty and asked when we could buy him a new sled. It's snowing as I type (I'm glad I'm INSIDE!) so I'm thinking that he's going to get the sledding wish soon. Oh, I need to stock up on hot chocolate too....now why can't I make it taste like Starbuck's Peppermint Hot Chocolate at home? Is that why it's $3/cup?

First Snow

Will and Frosty Jr. The snow was PERFECT for a snowman!

Thankful

I'm so thankful for these most precious gifts:

I am TRULY BLESSED!!! Happy Thanksgiving!

A New Cousin!

Congratulations to my sister Laura & her husband Buck! Their precious 3rd boy and 4th child was born yesterday. Tate is adorable and looks LOTS like his older brother C. Will and I had a great time visiting them today!

The Day After....I Think This Says it Best

VOTE!!!

I don't care at all who you vote for. But the fact that we live in the United States and we have the right to vote, without fear, is incredible and should be valued. So VOTE!

Happy Halloween!

We had a great time (and WONDERFUL weather!) on Friday night for Trick or Treating. We got lots of candy and had lots of fun!
