Cheers!

Look how cute these are! Thank you Karen for crocheting these! It is the season for giving, however I'm thinking of keeping these for myself. No, not really. I'll be giving these to our old neighbors to thank them for being great neighbors. Hope they will enjoy them as much as I do. Thank you again Karen and hopefully I can remember how to do them and make some for next year!

Nice place to be!! Funny Video

Here is a funny video of Maisy!

Cutting the tree!

We drove about 30 minutes away to Harris Creek Summit to look for our Christmas tree. We had a lot of fun. We love cutting down our trees and hope to keep the tradition for a very long time. When the kids are older we'll be able to snowshoe in and make it an even more exciting adventure. Probably something like a Griswold Christmas, we'll see. For now, we found a tree not far off the road. Matt, Maisy and Bodhi went down the hill for the tree while Beck and I stayed up top. We all had a great time, but I think Bodhi had the most fun. He loved it!
Maisy and mommy playing in the snow.
Matt lugging the tree up the hill. Yes, the hill was steep.

Maisy's shenanigans

Maisy thought her princess should have a horse.
Building towers for a princess.
Excuse for the partial nudity. She was having a potty party before her bath.
School so she can teach her kids.
Maisy told us that she would like a grocery cart with a place to put her babies. I told her maybe she should ask Santa for that, she agreed. The next day she came home with a pilgrim hat she made at school, that evening she came out of her room with this. I didn't get a picture, but she had put her tiger right in this little seat here. She is so very clever, she tied a seat right on there.

New house!

Well, Matt was browsing craigslist and came across a bigger house for less rent; so we're moving! This is such a cute house and it is only 4 streets away from where we live now. We will be officially moved out of our current house on December 15.

Bodhi is so weird

Bodhi has formed some strange habits when he eats. He picks one piece of food out of his bowl and puts it about 4 feet away. He then proceeds to rub his nose on the carpet. Bodhi then goes back for another piece and another... then he pushes the entire bowl under Maisy's drawing easel and eats there. For a long time I thought Maisy was moving his food dish, then I saw him do it. Bazaar.

We like pink hair!

We had a fun time the week of Halloween! We went to 2 different trunk-or-treats, a party at Maisy's school and then she and I went trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. At one of the trunk or treats Maisy wanted her face to be painted like a kitty. Odd, we know. A peacock with whiskers. Matt and Beck stayed home to watch football and hand out candy. Maisy got a lot of candy! We gave her the option of trading most of it for some toys and that is what she did. So now she has 3 new little toys and Matt and I have a huge pumpkin full of candy. I am trying to will myself to throw it away but the little girl in me is screaming "don't ever let go of the candy!"
