Let It Snow, Snow and Snow

Wow, when is the snow going to stop. I am usually one to get real excited about the snow, but even for Oregon this is a little much. The kids are really enjoying it. Mason had an entire week off even before the Christmas break because of the snow. He liked that. Moira cannot stop eating the snow or the ice cycles off of Daddy's car. And she wonders why her hands are so cold. Keep warm everyone.

IT'S ALMOST CHRISTMAS

Well, we went and picked out our Christmas tree last week. That was fun. The kids love it; running and getting lost among all the trees. We decorated it the same night. Mason and Moira are now wondering when presents will start to appear under it. Only Santa Claus knows. This weekend we went up to Haggs Tree farm. The barn was full of animals. The kids are partial to the goats because they get to feed them. It is hard to keep up with them and the quarters for the food. Santa was there. Moira wanted nothing to do with him, that is why there is no picture of her and Santa. This is the second year in a row that this has happened. Hopefully next year we can get a picture.

Happy Holidays to all.

Let's get along today

This must have been a day when Mason and Moira were getting along. They really do love each other, but they can sure get on each others nerves. I guess that is to be expected when one just wants his space and the other feels the need to think everything is hers. We try to make them aware of the other and the feelings that they have. Every night they have to say goodnight to each other with a hug. I hope they grow up to think of the other as a friend and look out for each other long after Matt and I are gone.

TRICK OR TREAT

They had a blast and it helps that lots of candy is involved. As you can see, Mason likes to get into character and Moira just can't stop with her toothy grin. What hams...

The Slide Was a Hit

This was a can't miss

Bouncy House. Mason could not stop laughing.

Is this a sign of things to come; Moira in jail. When she is 18 I am sure that this will become a reality. Oh boy.....
