Happy St. Valentine's Day!

I had a great day!  It started when we all went out to the living room together and saw a small Valentine's Day Treat, along with a balloon!  I made yummy sugar cookies and frosted them with sprinkles to share with my friends at Mom's Group.  We went to the group and I got to play with my friends.  I sure like it there!  We picked up Lily from school and she showed us her Valentines and even shared some of her candy with me!  We played the rest of the night and read a great book about the saint, Saint Valentine.  Hope you had a good one!

Lily and I making Valentines.  She was busy making ones for her classmates and I made some for my friends at Mom's Group.

Lily ready for school.  She had free dress for the celebration and she was ready for her party!

Decorating my cookies

I brought in a bowl and some rice krispies to Nick's room and shared with him, he was soo excited!

Lily was excited to show us her cards and treats

Snow!

No, we don't have any unfortunetly.  We have seen a few snowflakes but nothing to play in ...so, over Christmas Break I made a snowman and we took a family trip up to Mount Baker to see real snow!  We dropped Nick off to spend a day with Grandma and we headed up the mountain.  Lily and Daddy went skiing upon our arrival while Mama and I spent some time together in the lodge.  I tried out the skiis for a minute but was not a fan.  Maybe someday?  We are enjoying this beautiful, chilly weather but would really love a few days of snow to play in, we shall see!

I collected the sticks, rocks and birdie berries on our way to the mailbox.  I told mama I should make a snowman, so...we did!  I made his hat like that on purpose, just like Frosties!

So happy to see snow!

Ready for a run daddy!

What a fun day!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to you all!  I had a fabulous day and whole Advent Season.  We just love this time of year!  I think I was good this year because Santa brought me a neat fire station.  It is like a doll house for boys!  Every time I opened a present or took something from my stocking this year I said, "Just what I wanted!"  I hope you all had a blessed Christmas as well!  Check my brother's blog, as well as Lily's!

Check out this ornament!  I can't believe my Grandma Bonnie found a dinosaur ornament, we were all so excited about this!

Playing with my Santa gift.  It has a real fire poll!

Lily and I decorated a gingerbread house.  Unfortunately, it collapsed after we were done, but it was fun while we did it.

Concentration!

A snowman I painted.  On our trip to the mailbox the other day I collected the sticks and told mama we should make a snowman and I used the items I collected to decorate him.  I put his hat like that on purpose, just like Frosty!

We went up to Mount Baker yesterday.  We dropped Nicholas off to spend the day with Grandma and we headed up to play in the snow.  Lily and dada did a little skiing while I hung out and ate in the lodge with Mama.  Then we went sledding together.  I can't wait until it snows at home!

Ready for the skis

I had to try them on but I told everyone that I was scared!!

Such a beautiful day and wow, we like in an amazing place!

Catching Up

I don't even know where to start, but here I am!  We are having a great Advent and can't believe there are just 10 more days until Christmas!  We have a lot of visitors coming soon starting with my mama's Aunt and husband tomorrow.  Grandma and Papa Williams will make a trip and my Auntie Joanie and her boyfriend will be here for Christmas. Here are some pictures to tell what I have been up to in the last few weeks.

Today we finally went to explore the new indoor play area in Bellingham.  It was fabulous!

Grandma Katie and I waiting for Sissy to sing at the yearly Christmas Program!

Playing with our new train around the tree.  So fun!!

They call them stockings right?

Swimming in Papa's new pool

Fun times.  I'll be loosing these water wings soon!

Saint Nick brought me this cool bath set for Saint Nicholas' Feast Day -December 6th!  Check it out, I'm shaving like Daddy!

This is Saint Nicholas and he left these gold coins in my shoe along with my bath set.

And we went to the Mall to see Santa last weekend.  I was the messenger telling him what everyone wanted but he was so nice Lily warmed up a bit.  Look she even got in a picture!

Love playing with our little nativity set.  I include my dinosaurs on most occasions, haha.

Being a goof!

So silly!

Watching the Lynden lighted parade with cousin Maggie.  It was a freezing, rainy night, but it is a great parade and we had fun regardless. 

Who wouldn't love a firetruck decorated in Christmas Lights?

Halloween

Last weekend we had a special visit from Grandma and Papa.  They drove over from Spokane for the weekend and were even here to have lunch with Sissy at school on Friday.  We had a wonderful weekend visiting, catching up, and spending time together.  One of the things the kids got to do was have a fun movie night.  We watched Finding Nemo, well most of us....I won't tell you about sissy ;) -I think it was a little scary for her.  Here are a few pictures from Halloween too.  It was very rainy and windy so we ventured out for just a bit.  Sissy and I got just the right amount of candy and I would love to prove to anyone that claims that sugar does not effect children that they are wrong.  Very, very wrong!  Sam on sugar....watch out!!

All ready for movie night!

Me and the stinky skunks!

Do I look ferocious or what?

Trick or Treat!

Sissy and I are getting good at this!

My loot!
