Random Pics

Here are some random pics I have been meaning to post for a while!


Paul won an RTNDA award for a story he and a bunch of photographers did last Christmas

The girls love the Costco carts because they can sit side by side...although, I think about halfway through the store Kyleigh wished they could separate!


It is awfully hard to do dishes when Kyleigh crawls in the dishwasher every time we open it!

Hiking

On the day after Christmas, we decided to take a little family hike! Good thing we did it then, because now we are on to round two of the flu, and Mommy is on crutches (sprained foot or torn something from falling down stairs...with child in arm...she's OK!). This Christmas break has been nothing but sickness and injury!!

So cute!!

Christmas Day

What a great Christmas Day! We went to Mass on Christmas Eve since Paul had to work on Christmas morning. When he got home from work, the girls were able to open their gifts (it took some self-control from Haley and a lot of time out of the house in order to wait!). That evening we celebrated with dinner at my parents' house and with a birthday cake (or cupcakes actually) for Jesus, made by Haley! Unfortunately, we also had a little injury that day! Haley fell backwards off a chair at my parents' house and her head hit the corner of a shelf. We were able to control the bleeding, so the doctor next door said we didn't need stitches! Whew! Wasn't a fun experience thought! :( Sorry, I didn't want to take pictures of it! :) There is a reason why I am a teacher and not a nurse! Good thing we have one in the family!!



So where do you hang stockings when you don't have a fireplace??? On a ballerina bar, of course! Thanks Aunt Andra!


Now I can take pictures with my daddy!

Elmo!!! Kyleigh likes to snuggle him!





The evening ended with a game of ping pong! Aunt Sara gave us a kit that you can use to turn your kitchen table into a ping pong table...so much fun!!

The Zoo

We have a year pass to the zoo, so we decided to take the girls up there last weekend. This is the first time we have been since Kyleigh was able to enjoy it!
