Sledding!

Dan built an amazing snow fort with a sledding ramp for the girls right in the backyard! He's such a great dad! The girls were thrilled when we were finally over being sick and it was "warm" enough to go outside! The sled ramp was just the right size for the girls. They were so happy to be able to use the sleds they got for Christmas.

Poor little buddy doesn't like the snow and the cold very much.
We took him down the ramp once, but he didn't like that yet either. 

Just Some Pictures.....

Playing with barley....this was the first time that Daniel played with barley with
the girls, and he loved it!! They all played together for about an hour! 

Hannah and Sarah in their church coats. The one Hannah is wearing was mine
when I was little, and the one Sarah is wearing was from the girls' cousin, Alivya!

Having fun reading with the music teacher. 

Daniel just started making funny faces when I take his picture.
I think he thought he was smiling. :) 

Playing in a tent!

Hannah reading to Sarah..... so sweet!

Wise Man Night

Before Christmas, we did a "Shepherd Night", and Hannah thought

it would be a good idea to have a "Wise Man Night" too. So one night, the girls

got all dressed up and gathered some things for gifts, and we had a fancy

meal by candlelight. The little ones also got a camel ride, thanks to Dan! 

Merry Christmas!

We had a nice relaxing Christmas Day at home, and have had a really nice Christmas break. Dan goes back to school on January 7. We'll all miss him! We've enjoyed the time together.

Reading the Christmas story and setting the pieces in the manger scene. 

Hannah and Sarah made necklaces for each other.

Daniel got a little train from Grammy and Pappy

I made some hairbows for the girls.

Marble blocks from Grammy and Pappy.

Hannah got a lap harp from Grammy and Pappy. She's
doing quite well playing it and really enjoys it!

Sleds from Daddy!
