Let It!

We got a little snow just in tome for Christmas. If course the kids busted out the sled and headed for the hills.

It does look like a winter wonderland up here on the mountain.

The Greatest Tree on the Planet!

We had to travel to several places to be the next tradition in the new neighborhood. It is the cheapest tree we have ever bought. It may have something to do with living on a mountain.

Unpacking the thousands of ornaments. The kids tried to put every last one of them on the tree and realized that they couldn't see any green when they were done.

The fireplace has been a huge hit with the dog. It just makes me sweat.

SNOW!

Aaron found a hollow log that seemed to be more interesting than sledding so everyone had to join in.

Mis match backwards day.

Alyssa dressed and ready for the day with Aaron always getting in on the action.

Girl Scouts

Holiday Cheer!

Following the inspiration of a few of our friends in Texas we are spreading some of the holiday spirit.

Camp Happy Barnes

The kids have been showing an interest in going camping recently. I think a lot of this stems from the show they have been watching on the Discovery Chanel, Man vs. Wild and Survivor Man. I am more than happy to accommodate them and have been digging out a bunch of my old gear. They have no idea the monster that they have resurrected. Missy is already trying to bow out but resistance is futile.
