Gingerbread House

Yesterday Johanna went in to Paxton's class to help the kids make gingerbread houses. Paxton was really excited to have her in class with him.

Thanks mom for coming in and helping!

Sledding

Last Saturday morning we did a little bit of sledding on the little hill behind the house. Shaelyn liked it until her and Paxton wiped out riding down on the tube together. Neither one was hurt but Shaelyn glove came off and her hand got wet and cold so she headed inside. The wind was blowing pretty hard which made it colder. Paxton and I had fun for a while longer, then played some street hockey outside.

Ready to go

First Snow of the Season

A week ago last Saturday night/ Sunday morning we got our first real snow of the season.
