Olivia loves her Daddy!

 

This is always how she looks at him and I love it!

Rub a dub dub, 3 chicks in a tub.

 

Olivia loves to take a bath with her sisters now!

Happy Birthday to Mom!

 

Mike took Emma and Norah to a fun store called Color me Mine so they could decorate a mug for my birthday.   They both got to paint one side and I love having my tea or coffee in it.

 

Emma’s first Gopher game!

 

Emma got to go and see a Gopher hockey game with Dad.  She loved it!

All ready with the maroon and gold!

 

GO GOPHERS!  

Christmas Day

 

 

Christmas 2011

 

Christmas this year was a little different than other years.  Earlier in the week the girls had gotten a stomach bug and in the middle of the night on the 23rd it hit me, hard.   I had to miss the kids singing at church and the get together with Mike’s side of the family but my sister in law was sweet enough to take a few photos for me.

Think they got enough stuff!?  The girls are so loved.

It was really hard for me to miss out on this family time.   It gave me a glimpse into what it would be like to not have those I loved around me during the holidays and felt so blessed that it was only for a day.    I hope you all had a blessed holiday and celebrated Jesus birthday. 

Seeing Santa

 

A perk of now being home is the ability to go and see Santa at the mall during off-peak hours.  Last year we waited in line for over an hour and this year was able to walk right up there.   We have had some pretty comical photos in the past but this year everyone thought he was pretty cool up close.  

Merry Christmas from Emma, Norah and Olivia.
