Baby its cold outside!

Well it is Christmas time here in Iowa!

We put up the tree:

Ellie liked the box it came in.



They both LOVE the lights!




We are making sure we are on Santa’s nice list:

And now we have the snow!

This is Chad shoveling our deck.

We had a blizzard today! Lots of snow and wind made for a day inside with Dad! Chad got to stay home because of the roads outside.


We took out all the winter clothes!

Nice socks Chad!!!

Lily and Ellie trying a few things on!


A project that I’m working on right now is making our Christmas stockings (which are almost done!)

I am also going to start making hats for a service project I learned about from a girl I met online. She is collecting hat for people with a compulsive disorder called Trichitillomania. This disorder causes people to pull out their hair, often sub-consciously or in their sleep. It sounded like an easy way to help some people out! If you have any hats you would like to contribute let me know!
