The Great Debate....

My husband and I are having a great debate over the Christmas tree this year. I wanted a fake one do Kamryn's allergies (Dr. recommendation). Robert wants a real tree, because that is what you do, tradition! Well, this debate has been going on thru out the month causing no tree real or fake to pass over our threshold. So, this afternoon I took matters into my own hands, with help from the kids and made, real, fake Christmas trees!

And, yes it is snowing, AGAIN!

Snow and Ice.....

We had a very snowy day yesterday and freezing rain last night that has continues today...leaving a thick layer of ice over everything.

This this our dinning room window!

While I was out taking photos, I fell down...can you find my huge butt print? :)




The now ice covered snowman.
I lost my foot!!!!!!

Kade made footballs and trains.

Kayla had bells, music notes and a deer.

I should have payed more attention to the oven...
