Bella really loves to read to her brothers.
Decisions. Decisions.
Balloon animals from a birthday party: a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle (Curtis called it an "inja turtle".
All three sitting quietly at the table doing a Christmas crafts. Moments like these are rare, but they do happen.
Curtis helped make the brownies for Bella's class birthday treat.
Graydon wrapped a few candles for our Christmas Eve candle light service.
On my mom's last day in town, we spent the day in historic Smithville, NJ. Over 60 cute little shops, a short train ride, and a Christmas light display on the water. We started the day out with some hot chocolate.
The train wasn't running at first due to rain. We actually spent quite a bit of time in an indoor arcade. But then the rain stopped and the train started!
Girls Day! Bella and I went to see the NJ Ballet perform The Nutcracker.
In our seats and ready for the show to start!
At the end, she got an autograph and photo with the Sugar Plum Fairy.
Kitchen projects with the kids. This one is only a little messy and the kids can pretty much do it on their own.
Winter has barely begun and we've already had two small snow storms! We even had a snow day!
A lazy afternoon.
The answer to our "ice cream park". Some friends recommended an ice cream parlour that has a carnival theme. Worked for us!
The mirrors were a super hit.
And then we went to a park that still had some ice on the ground from our latest snow. An "ice park". Close enough.
Christmas cookie time!
