A new Do for a new year

Ella wanted to cut her hair "like Grace's", so she had it chopped off. I must say it is soooo cute- and should be easy to fix. :)

Three Christmases

The kids had 3 Christmases- and came home with much more than any child should be allowed. We'll have to make room for new stuff...nice project for Mom and Dad. Here's a few shots from Grandma and Grandpa Bettineski's house...Santa even made an appearance.









Here's Christmas at Grandma Midge and Grandpa Rube's house- Grandma Pam surrounded by grandkids- Macy, Kealie, McKayla, Tyler, and Ella- Tru wasn't into posing for a pic at that moment :)


Here's our sledding/skiing excurion at the cabin on Christmas day. The kids had a lot of fun- not quite enough snow for our liking, but it worked.

Sledding

We took advantage of the beautiful sunshine and took the kids sledding in the park. Here'a a few pics- they had a great time until Ella got a face full of snow- then they were cold and wanted to come home. But it was fun while it lasted.

The Charlie Brown Tree

We ventured to the cabin for our tree...and came home with one (I guess you can call it a Christmas tree since it has decorations on it). It's pretty sparse..but the kids had a great time hanging the decorations so that's all that matters, right?
