in the snow!

The girls enjoyed their venture out into the snow...after tasting it, Ada said, "It's not spicy!!!" as she scooped seconds into her mouth! Josie enjoyed the snow slide that we made in one of the snow-plowed banks. We finished the fun with some hot cocoa - yummy!

the great Winter Wallup

It is still coming down (8-12 additional expected and over a foot already on the ground)! The girls were quite amazed by the amount of snow on the ground this morning (Ada, however, was a bit concerned about the disappearance of the beloved green car - "I want the green car to come back!"). More pictures to come if we venture out!

 

 

 

 

Halloween at the Lawn

The girls enjoyed filling their pumpkin baskets at the Lawn...while there we bumped in to many friends, including Elias and Griffin (a.k.a Batman and Robin) - look at Ada's expression in the picture of the four of them - she is a little suspect of Robin's new standing ability!

All Saint's Fair

The girls were winged creatures this Halloween and wore their costumes to four events, starting with the All Saint's Fair at our church (followed by dress up at mainly music, trick-or-treating at the Lawn, and then trick-or-treating in our neighborhood).

Ada is TWO!

Ada turned TWO on Oct. 18 and in honor of this special occasion, we celebrated twice - once with all her grandparents and cousins and then on the real day with just the four of us.
