Merry Christmas!!!

Merry Christmas everyone! We had a very busy night and morning. Jaydn wanted to sleep with me last night and refused to go to bed until I did, so we were up until around 10 pm on christmas eve. She woke up at 830 and was ready to go! We called daddy and he got his computer set up and was able to watch and listen to us open our gifts. We also got to see him open his gifts! It is so nice that we have the technology that allows us to see one another even from miles apart, it wouldn't be the same if we couldn't do that.

Our free christmas tree! Thank you to Trees for Troops that gives free trees to families with deployed soldiers! We were so lucky to get such a beautiful tree..even though it fell down the first night we had it. I managed to get it set back up and only lost one ornament in the ordeal!

So Silly

We have had HORRIBLE weather the past two days. We've had snow with winds up to 45 mph gusts. Lucky for us (NOT) the snow has drifted into our back yard and front porch. I don't think this picture does the drift justice but you get a little bit of an idea of what it is like here.

Let it snow!!!

So we got our first big snow storm of the year. It snowed for two days and we got about a foot total. Then last night the wind kicked in and the snow drifts are horrible. I can't get out my front door and I'm afraid to see what the driveway looks like. We have about 3 feet of snow in the back yard but there is nothing on the hill right behind us. Billy hates it, but Jaydn loves it. We didn't have school today and will see what tomorrow brings! My friend Maria convinced me to come out and let Jaydn so sledding and I'm so glad that I did! We had a blast!




Jaydn was so excited to see the first snow!


she likes to pose for the camera

WEEE!!Thank you Gaga and Grandma Sharen for the sled, it came in handy!


She was trying, unsuccessfully, to pull Erick back up the hill.
