Snowshoeing - What Fun!

This past weekend, we experienced another first.... At a local park named Mosquito Hill, they had candle light snowshoeing hike, following by a bonfire. I don't know what made me I more excited - the fact that it was a balmy 41 degrees, the snowshoeing, or the fact that a hill is named after a bug ;)

Kali getting ready...

Cole loved the turtles...not so much the snowshoeing

(he wimpered the whole time).... Cole and Chisty were the only ones brave enough...For those of you wondering....it was a deer antler. The best part for Cole? Running fast and racing Tony afterwards in his pajamas..

No, I did not get a perm now that I live in Wisconsin....apparently I have naturally curly hair! Who would have thought it would take going to a gal HERE to find that out?

Christmas Morning..

So I'm a little late - I know already! Was perusing the photos from Christmas morning and found this adorable one....

TROUBLE!

So...Tony had to take a picture... this is what Cole was doing while Tony was busy on the computer... Hey, at least his lips won't get burned ;)

How pretty the snow falling is...

The hill is growing!

Well, the hill is getting much bigger! We are only 7" away from setting an all-time record for snowfall in December - which we should be getting today...YIKES!

Lets see that up close...

What a ride!!!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas - finally!

While I was napping, Tony went out and picked out our Christmas tree! I know - it's getting a little late - so I was really happy that Tony took charge - and got a pretty one at that :)

Cole wasn't much help decorating....

Trying to get Cole to pose in front of the tree....
Finally, a cute shot!
Always a good looking pair...

Snow Fun!

I came home from Christmas shopping and found this.... I'm not sure if you can see, but Tony snowplowed circles in the backyard to create his own personal sledding hill. It seems a tad close to the house to me, but he and Cole had fun!
