busy weekend

We have a busy weekend coming up with Meg's birthday and baptism and family in town. I wanted to post a link to this yummy recipe so that I wouldn't forget to try it when things slow down!

Our basketball star

Jordan's basketball season is in full swing. Please excuse the quality of the pics. It took me a bit to get the lighting right and before I could perfect my action shots the battery died!

Jordan has made a couple of baskets per game. He has also had quite a few assists including one this game where he passed the ball halfway down the court over ALL of the players to the coach's kid who then scored the shot. Its going to be a fun season watching him progress.

GO JORDAN!

Happy Birthday Ben

Last week was Ben's birthday. He got mostly books and dvds. We are also going to go pick out a new bbq grill sometime in the next few weeks.

Happy birthday Ben, we love you.

Christmas night

After all of the Christmas mayhem was over Bill, Nancy and Stephanie came over to hang out for a while. It was so fun to let the kids play and visit with family. I wish everyone could have been here!

Its a Christmas Miracle!!

This was our first 'bite-free' Christmas. We made sure that no chocolate was brought out during the gift opening because that seems to be what our little one feels so deprived of.

Here's Yogi trying to be a good boy:

Still trying to be a good boy:

"See mom, I can be a good boy!"

Christmas 2009

We had a nice quiet Christmas at home. It was so nice to open gifts and just be together and I didn't have to run off to work right after!

Coming down to see what Santa brought.

Look at all of that loot!

Hope you all had a great Christmas too!

Christmas Eve Sledding

Christmas Eve morning Ben organized a sledding party. It was so much fun! I feel a tradition coming on! The babies were such good sports while we all played in the snow.

The first run Greta got covered in snow and didn't appreciate it but after that she had so much fun and was SO sad when it was time to leave!

Here is a picture overload of the fun:
