Decorating & Parties

Norah and I made some salt dough ornaments

She's making the king & queen together

While Norah did ornaments, Alex had a blast at Devin's birthday party!

We realized we are not the sports type, but he looks like a star anyway!

working with his little hand plane

well, at least one of us is having fun at Daddy's work Christmas party...



now she's having tons of fun dancing!!!!

Alex finally got his turn to paint the ornaments


and Norah wanted to do more

Alex was making up his own colors and they came out great!  The light green one us supposed to be a cactus, but he thought it made a better ninja weapon. 

heading over the Maddie's to decorate gingerbread men on a lovely rainy day

Norah, Alette, and Maddie working hard





Alex created this intricate web design using simple knots.... he's just amazing!

Fun with Friends!

Reindeer Party at Tiny Town

While I was on a jog around the neighborhood on a gorgeous day, I noticed there was a lot of trash along the road so afterward I took Norah and Maddie on a little nature walk/neighborhood clean up which ended at the playground.






















We went to Claychick with Lindsey and Riley and had a great time painting ornaments!
