Thanksgiving Weekend 2008



Thanksgiving Day brought us an extra special surprise -- tons of SNOW!! Maelin enjoyed playing outside in the snow with daddy (making a snowman, being pulled around on the sled) in the morning and early afternoon. Then we got ready and headed to Uncle Jon and Aunt Laura Gleeson's house for Thanksgiving dinner.


The day after Thanksgiving, Maelin and Mommy set up the Christmas tree. Daddy went hunting, so we figured out the lights (go girls!) and decorated the tree, as well. Maelin loved putting ornaments on tree -- all the blue ones here, all the bear ones here...it's a bit of a 'sorting' tree this year!


These cracked me up, so i had to share them!! Maelin has been into her dress-up box a lot since Halloween. I'm not sure what this is, but i'll call it "princess pirate"!!

Now we're busy getting ready for the upcoming holidays...

Ahh the good ol' winter break! Such fun, especially when there is "tons" of snow...NOT! I hate winter. I can remember a time however, and kids today are still as ethusiastic as we were, they can't wait to get out in it. Haley got her papa, he was taking a nap and she went out and brought in an arm load of snow and dumped it on him, he wasn't too thrilled but she sure thought it was funny and I have to admit I laughed hardily with her.
Haley put on our ornaments and did a good job, I'm glad she did, otherwise it probably wouldn't have gotten done...haha. From now on that's going to soley be her job.
Maelin is so funny, what a hoot! Gotta love her!!
Until next time,
Hugs,
