Busy, busy busy as the magician would say in "Frosty!"

With Christmas right around the corner, I've been beyond busy! From Christmas parties to cookie exchange to school programs, to shopping . . .the list goes on and on!  I haven't had the luxury to update the blog that often lately, but caught a few pictures yesterday from the beautiful snow.  We had about 4 inches and the kids and dog loved it!

I love this picture of Willow, our dog, across the street just looking at me like, "mom, i know i'm not supposed to be over here-but i just LOVE the snow!"








All dressed up!
BEFORE: G is saying, "I don't want to take a picture!"
AFTER: G is saying, "ah, mom, i'm just putting on a show!"

I love this picture below of O.  She just looks so happy playing w/ G.  We were all dressed up to see "Babes in Toyland," a local Park District production.  We went with some friends in the neighborhood and had a great time!

Love the pics and the dress that O has on. :) I got a few pics of my son with that SAME look on his face.

Love all the pictures! It made me sad when I saw your dog in the snow. We lost our sweet dog back in the spring and her FAVORITE time of the year was winter. We would open up the door and she would literally sprint outside to play in the snow. It was so sweet!
Have fun with the rest of the season. :-)

Our little dog adores the snow too, though she could hardly manage it today!
The kids look radiant, absolutely beautiful!
Merry Christmas to you all!
