New Year

Christmas was full of traveling & wonderful time spent with family. Mari especially enjoyed playing with her little cousin Ben.

As 2007 winds down we reflect back on what a year it has been. Gretta being the most special blessing the year has brought.

Here are some pics from our holiday season.

Time is flying by

With Christmas less than a week away we have been busy getting ready for the festivities. Simon & I have been making goodies every night after the girls go to bed. Only 2 more munchies to make!

When Mari is asked what she wants for Christmas she says a "little present". Now most kids would ask for toys or at least a big present. I hope she doesn't get disappointed with the size of her gifts. Ha!

Above is a picture of the girls in their Christmas dresses. I think they look so pretty in them and Mari always agrees with me. :)

Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it stop

The first day of December brought us 8.5 inches of snow! Luckily the city was prepared and the snow plows were out that day. I did end up pulling out one car on Sunday on my way to buy Christmas presents. Poor kids were in this little Honda and they had no shovel or even gloves. Needless to say they were happy to see me in my 4x4 pick up. :)
