Courtney and I had a great time baking cookies and making buckeyes together. She loves to do anything in the kitchen and is a great cook!

Myles is all ready for Chirstmas and so are the rest of us. I spent a lot of time this weekend wrapping presents, why did it used to be a lot more fun? Anyway.......Joel and Courtney went to Ohio for the weekend so they will be surprised when they get home!

I wonder what that great big present is??? HMMMMM.....I guess we'll have to wait to find out on Christmas...........Joel will be very happy!

Finally got the gingerbread house done, it's so cute!

We finally got around to decorating the tree. I really wish pictures showed how pretty stuff is. The tree is so pretty. Maybe after I get some gifts under the tree I'll post another picture. I love the pretty colors on the tree, bright purple, pink, silver and white.

We've still got to get that Gingerbread house done!

Decorating a cute Gingerbread Tree. We'll do the Gingerbread house when dad gets home.

Apparently winter has arrived-great..........

We have had non-stop snow for a week now and it is old. Joel has been gone all week and of course I've gotten stuck twice in my own driveway--and if you want a good laugh call Morgan she's got a story. Apparently the last time I got stuck....I lost all control......whatever......if she had said one word when I was trying to get unstuck I think I honestly would have ripped her out of the car and beat her to death with the shovel.....thankfully she is a smart kid!

Here's the kids and dog's playing in the snow today--thankfully someone enjoys this crap.

This is how much snow we've gotten so far---and winter hasn't even started yet!
