Our Dark Knight!

Grandma Pam bought this awesome Batman Outfit for Raleigh and he LOVED it! We put that thing on and took it off about a million times in the few days between Christmas and our California trip. We really paid the price though when we forgot to bring it on our trip with us!

Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve, Raleigh had lots to do to get ready for Santa. He had been talking about Santa for 2 months and it was finally time, so our little man was super excited!

He put out cookies, rice crispy treats and milk for Santa, and water for the reindeer. He also set put his reindeer with a Santa hat on and a picture of him and Audrey on Santa's lap so Santa would know who he was. So cute!!!! Okay, now everything is set and ready!

We also watched Santa's progress online at Norad.com which helped us survive the long wait! They had video of Santa flying through the air on the website and Raleigh thought it was AMAZING!



SNOW!!!

We got 20 inches of snow in Sherwood!!! We were amazed! Our little town looked like something out of a storybook. Even though we had some pretty boring at home days, it was pretty exciting to see the whole town slow down. The school kids even got an extra free week for Winter Break!
Audrey wasn't too thrilled being stuck in the snow because she couldn't move in her snow outfit!

She was much happier being held. She liked the snowflakes falling on her head though!


Raleigh and Gwyn bonded in the snow!





20 inches! Poor Gwyn couldn't even find a place to go potty. We had to shovel a path for her!







Blankies!

These are pics of the kids with their blankets that Helen Brazeau made them. It was really hard to get the kids to stay still. Raleigh kept wanting to go under the blankets and Audrey kept flipping over and trying to crawl away!
