Happy Birthday!

Finally Three! Our party ended up rather small due to threat of blizzard, but that didn't stop the fun. Erin made them each a Minnie Mouse cake in their favorite color. Happy Birthday Hailey & Riley!

Merry Christmas!

Itching to open presents!


Santa came and brought them the drum they asked for!


Riley opening a present:


Merry Christmas everyone!!

Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve at Auntie Sandy's house making gingerbread houses with cousins Jordan and Tyler.

Hailey:


Riley. Ho! Ho! Ho!


Decorating:

It's Beginning to Feel a Lot Like Christmas

We had an early Christmas tonight with Grandma Sandy. So fun!

Hailey: Headphones, iPod*, and toothbrush. What else do you really need?


Cheese!


Aww, cuddly pillowpets, which immediately replaced their regular pillows.




*Hailey did NOT get an iPod for Christmas. I was using it to demonstrate to Hailey and Riley what exactly headphones did. The headphones are really more for Mommy & Daddy in the long run, since they will be using them in the car to watch movies and we can finally listen to grown up stuff!

Brrr

So yeah, it's cold in Vermont. But even the native Vermonters agree this is a little ridiculous!

I haven't been outside much with the girls, I let myself off the hook because they get lots of outside time at school no matter how cold it is (well, I suppose if it were 30 below they wouldn't go out). But today we ventured out. We thankfully don't have that much snow yet, compared to some of the neighboring towns, but it was plenty for the girls to have fun in anyway.
