Elora's 3rd Birthday

Elora turned 3 on the 5th! She had some friends over and got a Barbie, a little piano, a babydoll, and an aquadoodle. She loves all her presents and can't decide which one she likes most. She had lots of fun playing in the cardboard box filled with wrapping paper, too!















Yay! She's three!








For about three days afterwards, she kept asking me if she was still three. When I explained that she would be three until her next birthday, her eyes got really big, and she said, "Really?; yay!" I guess she thought she would go back to being two after her birthday was over.

First Snow of the Year!

We finally got snow here! We've had a few dustings before, but nothing that stayed for more than a few hours--until today. The kids were so excited that they went out to play before I even got up this morning. They've been going out all day and after much begging and pleading, I finally went out with them.

After they threw them (I was trying to get them mid-air, but it didn't work)
