Fun in the snow!!!

I have to admit I am really enjoying being at home with all of this beautiful snow and my girls! The snow actually started last weekend while we were at the Pacific Northwest Ballet Nutcracker! We came out during intermission and snow was falling!!! It was so cool!!!

The family at the Nutcracker.



The girls have been having such a good time. My mom and I braved the snow on Wed and went over to the mall. She picked up snow pants for the girls and they have used them every day! They go outside and play in the snow for hours at a time! They worked together and made an adorable snow castle. They are, for the most part, playing beautifully together.




Katie on our trip to the mall very excited to see Santa!!! Thank goodness we went when we did!!!



I have been trying to do all sorts of fun Christmas activities so that they don't get too bored. We have made cookies and chex mix. Last night we decorated snowman sugar cookies. Today they wrote Christmas cards to their friends. We went to the dollar store the other day and they found Sleeping Beauty and Tinkerbell Christmas cards so they have been really excited to send them out. Sascha and I also put together a tin of cookies for her friend's family. Sascha then loaded Katie, the cards and cookies on the sled and they went and mailed the cards and delivered the cookies! They were so cute!!!

The first day of BIG snow!

Off to mail their letters and deliver cookies!!



We all have our shopping done and almost everything is wrapped! I do have a couple of things that I am still making for Katie. I am making her a tinkerbell jumper and a diaper bag, diapers and baby clothes for the baby doll she is getting. I really hope I can get them all done in time. I think that as long as I have one of the doll dresses, the diaper bag and the diapers done I'll be good. I finished the tinkerbell dress a couple of days ago and it is soooo cute!!! I can't wait to see it on her. I'm going to try and get it all done tonight so I can get at least one decent night of sleep before Christmas!!!

I hope you are all having a good holiday season and lots of fun in the snow!!!
