Snow, snow and more snow!!!

We're getting hit with MORE snow!! Sunday into Monday we were suppose to get 2-4" however I think we got about 10"!!! Now we are in a winter storm warning and suppose to get another 7-9". Girls are hoping that there is a snow day tomorrow!

Tiz just LOVES being outside in the snow

Robyn has been so helpful with the shoveling this year!

Tiz and Robbie had to go for a snow wheeler ride

and had a GREAT TIME!!


Now....I must go take the Explorer down back and haul Robbie out of a snowbank. Ahem, yup he's stuck. Takes a "real" vehicle to haul out a F250!!! LOL Stay tuned for pictures!

First monthly family get together

Tonight we had our first monthly family get-together. We did a Mexican theme for dinner. All the food was delicious! Different variety, we stepped away from the tacos, and tried new recipes. Robyn made some wonderful sugar/cinnamon tortillas that she put in coffee ice cream, HEAVENLY!! Top, Cheryl's Mexican chix lasagna, my chicken enchiladas, my corn/black bean dip, Ashton spanish rice. OH! Virgin margaritas.

After dinner, Auntie treated the girls to manicures

Of course I have more pictures of everyone, but Blogger once again isn't playing nice and letting me put them on.

Next month we're having dinner at Courts new place. Though, I don't believe we settled on a theme for dinner!!!

....and yet another Christmas - the final one!

Last night we finally got to have Christms with my mum. She went away for the holidays, so it was great to have her up for dinner and open presents! We were minus Robbie as he's in Florida working for a few days. Working on a boat and meetings for the new built that he has to build and launch before October! Tiz giving Grammy a hug. YUP she has her favorite hat on!!

Another Christmas!!

Due to the snowstorm we had on Saturday, we were unable to make it up to visit Robbie's grandmother, Nana Connie,for the Ham family Christmas. However Robbie's parents went and brought back gifts for us to open. We opened them up on Sunday, and as usual weren't disappointed!! Robyn opening her gift card

Thrilled she got some bare minerals, not to mention Wii Fit Plus!

Elizabeth absolutely LOVED the hat she got, along with movie and purse

Of course, she loves jewelry and was very pleased

Yup, she loves the hat, it is SO her! She wears it all the time and it even matches her jacket and snow pants.

So right now, the plan is that Robbie will hopefully get out of work early Thursday so we can run up to visit. Because this weekend is my weekend to work, plus he's once again leaving for Florida!

Thanks Nana Connie, Aunt Becky & Uncle Bruce, Aunt Susie and Steve for the gifts! Great choices all around and great appreciated!!

Sliding and snowshoeing

So here are some of the pictures of us sliding and snowshoeing that we did on Saturday. We had an absolutely FABULOUS time doing both, and felt it the next day. We're looking forward to more of the same, and even ice skating in the real near future!!

OOps, she fell!

SNOW!!!!

Its been snowing here off and on since Thursday. The result, probably at least 12" of snow. I'm betting a little more. Right now its switching from rain, to snow. HUGE snowflakes now!Temperature must be right on the boarderline of freezing.

We've done lots the past 2 days. Lots of shoveling to say the least! We've been snowshoeing, sledding and the girls even built a snowman this morning! Its been a blast! Back to the real world tomorrow with school and work.

Here are some pictures, I'll post the snowshoeing and sledding ones later. Dang blogger still doesn't let me do what I want for pictures
