SNOW BALL FIGHT

Today we went to mom and dad's house.

Aden and Amelia went outside to play in the snow.

Ava and Emma couldn't go outside because they both have colds.

But they still got to have a snowball fight.

Ava and Emma sat inside by the window and Aden and Amelia

stood outside and threw snowballs at the windows.

FIRST NIGHT OF GYMNASTICS

THIS FACE...

I am so excited I captured this expression on camera.

This is her

"DID YOU HEAR WHAT I SAID?"

"I THINK I'M THE BOSS!"

"I'M WAITING FOR A REACTION FROM SOMEONE"

"I AM BEING A SASSY-PANTS AND WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU NOTICE"

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE LOOKING AT MOM?"

"I THINK I'M A TEENAGER ALREADY"

face.

In a few years this face will be followed by some eye rolling I'm sure.

TRIP TO MEMAW & GRANDPA'S

Last weekend we went flew to Omaha, NE to visit with Drew's parents.

Emma's baby came along too.

We went to the zoo. It was such a cool place and probably the best zoo I've ever beent to.

Pretty Pretty Princes hanging out at MeMaw and Grandpa's house.

Emma and MeMaw watched Dora.

They colored.

And they read books.

Her and Grandpa played silly games.

And card games.

Emma chased Mochka around.

And sometime caught him.

But all goods things must come to an end.

It was time to come home.

ICKY...

That explains how my baby feels.

MY CHRISTMAS PRESENT

Andrew surprised me with a new camera for Christmas. I was in desperate need of a new camera. My old camera, which I still love, was on it's last leg. I've had it for 5 years and there is no telling how many thousands of pictures I've taken with it. But it was time to say goodbye to the old and hello to my new Canon Rebel XSI. I am in love!

I still have a lot to learn. And I can not wait to get my stronger lens so that I can take some pictures this spring. I already have so many ideas. But when you have such a beautiful child it's hard to take a bad picture. Here are a few of my favorite pictures I've taken with the new camera.
