We had our first snow last week and found that boys and girls really are different. Carston spent almost 3 hours outside playing the snow, while Sydney spent about 30 minutes and then came in for hot chocolate. Next time I promise to take pictures of the dudedestroying daddy's perfectly sculpted mulch beds in the back yard. I think Maren and Lydia came home from school and each spent about 10 minutes total out in the snow. They came in looking for hot cocoa as well. But, at least they all slept well that night. Maren has also exploded onto the spelling scene with 3 perfect spelling tests in the last three weeks. I think the milkshake bribe is working.

Thanksgiving 2007

Okay, we had a big HUGE party at our house, and hopefully everyone had a good time. Too bad I forgot to take pictures. (See Jessica's work for that). Svend and Jessica came down from Guerney (sp?) and then we had three other families come over too eat, watch movies, and let the kids have fun. I still hope everyone had a good time and feel welcome to come again.
