Some random pics from the last couple weeks...

This picture is very significant because it involves me and snow.i generally have a pretty determined dislike of the snow and cold but i'm trying to embrace it for the children's sake. :)  So, not only did i take Will out to play in it this week, i took him out on a day that the temps barely got to double digits. we had fun-even if it was less than 20 minutes before the cold got to me and we had to go inside!

We are so excited to have 3 girls in the family. Little Calliope (my sis's girl) is only 9 months younger than Madeline and Sophie so we're sure they will be the best of friends.

 

Sisters hugging- how much better can it get?!  Especially when they are twin sisters and hugging can turn into screaming pretty quickly or the other way around.

 I've been friends with this group of gals since jr.high. However, this was the first time in many years that almost all of the original group were able to get together at the same time. it was so great to catch up- i love these girls!

 

Some good friends from CA visited over the holidays. Here's Will with his friend Madison. (we're secretly planning a betrothal...hope they're ok with that :)
