Fun in the Snow!

Abbey has been enjoying the snow we have been getting lately. Here is a video of Abbey sledding down the hill that we made down the side of our house.

Abbey was very excited when she got her very own snow shovel. As you can see she was happy to take over the snow shoveling duties.

Abbey and I made a gingerbread house...Ava helped by eating the candy and frosting.

Cooking with Abbey at Thanksgiving

Abbey and Grandma Bev enjoyed cooking together during the Thanksgiving holiday. Abbey traced her handprint onto a Rice Krispy treat and then decorated it like a turkey:


She and her cousins each made a place setting for the table---a turkey made from cookies and gumdrops:


They also made a centerpiece (a fruit tray), placemats, and other decorations. Here's their beautiful Thanksgiving table:


Abbey also had fun playing with Grandma Bev's train set:


Ava enjoyed playing with her cousins and with her dad:


It was a wonderful Thanksgiving:

Happy Thanksgiving!

We spent Thanksgiving in St. George Utah. We were thankful for the warmer weather, good food, swimming, hiking and for family.

Abbey enjoyed playing games with her Grandma and cousins, making yummy treats with her grandma and swimming every day.


She also enjoyed hanging out in her pajamas all day long! I'm sure Sheri is very proud.

Ava enjoyed eating, eating and more eating. She also loved getting spoiled by everyone. Apparently she also wore her bib like a cape.

Our vacation went by fast and before we knew it we were back in the Las Vegas airport heading back to freezing cold Montana.
