Tuesday Fun!




We had a day of fun with family! Kris and Andy and the kids came over this morning to play and have lunch..... the kids decided to try out Klem's kennel.... Klem was not too sure of them "taking over her territory"....Then, this evening, Uncle Mike and Aunt Delores came over for dinner. We enjoyed some good conversation and family time.

Sledding



We went sledding with our friends Allen, Holly, Madeleine and Katherine on Monday. Our Kathryn loved it...despite being cold...everytime she went down the hill, she would say, "AGAIN".

Tom Turned 30!




Tom turned 30 last Friday! We celebrated all weekend.... coffee with my parents, a dinner out just the two of us and then a little birthday party on Saturday with family and friends. Kathryn even made her daddy a birthday cake! It turned out great!

Kathryn had a little birthday party today.... she enjoyed time with her family and friends. Cousins Isaak, Noelle and Joey and friends Madeleine and Katherine were there to help celebrate. Thank you to our family and friends for the time spent with Kathryn and all the love you give her.

Oh...Kyle and Ellen! Kathryn loved the jammies..... she wore them tonight. The pockets on the shirt were a big hit!

Sibling Dinner
















We had our monthly sibling dinner last night. We enjoyed a white elephant gift exchange.....some of the highlights were the beautiful gold plate, a gold chain and a blanket wrap. Don't worry.... Quin was not part of the gift exchange...but I had to add that picture in here because it is so cute!

Getting Ready for Christmas
















Last weekend we decorated the Christmas tree....and had breakfast with the Grinch . Kathryn was not quite sure about the Grinch.....
