Christmas Update!

Sorry I have not updated in so long.
We were able to spend a Christmas at home with just our family. It was quiet and WHITE!!!! Can you believe that?!?!?! It began snowing and being icy around the 14th and so the girls didn't have school all that week because of the conditions. (Any signs of snow here they practically close down everything.) So the girls got an extra week of school, which was nice for them, but bad at the same time! Now they have summer habits again. I have been trying all week to get them to bed on time and to start thinking school again. Some days are better than others!! :)
Here are a few pictures from our weeks at home, in the snow and Christmas.

Madie going down a hill on a tube, if you can zoom in you would see the worlds biggest smile!!!!
Naomee on her way down the hill!!
I used to love playing in the snow. (Not so much these days!)

Madie with another great smile, opening presents!

Cadie and one of the best games we have had in the house in a long time.
It is called Express Monopoly. It is really fast and easy, even Madie and Naomee get in on the action.

Naomee with her Christmas eve present.

I've seen Monopoly Express and wondered about it. We are big game people, so that is good to know. I love the pictures! Your snow looks so tame and friendly. Not like our snow at all.

Love, Tif
