Daddy I want you to play this one, and this one, and this one...

Thanks to the snow, Aaron and Daddy have had lots of time to play together. Piano is one of Aaron's favorite things to do.

Happy Boy. What a great smile!

Wheee...Aaron's first ride on a sled

More Snow

Isn't this a beautiful picture that Matt took? This is part of the green belt in our neighborhood.

Doggy igloo

We ended up with over 15 inches of snow on Sunday. So far there has been 3 days of school closures because of the aweful driving conditions. We just aren't equiped for this kind of weather. Our high for the past few days was 19 degrees, which is 30 to 40 degrees cooler then normal!

Our backyard...if you look closely you can see Aaron's swing set barried in the snow.

This was the trail that the garbage can left going from the garage to the curb. Check out how deep the snow is. Again, can I just say that we never get this much snow!

Let it snow!

This morning we woke up to snow. We made it to church but we didn't make it all of the way home. We had to park at the bottom of our neighborhood and walk in, our van couldn't make it up the snow, slick hill. Later we bundled up and headed outside into the snow...for all of 5 minutes...brrr! It is too windy today to play in the snow.

Aaron wasn't too excited about the snow today. It is so windy it is hard to see and it makes it much colder. We must have about six inches so far. This is definitely not northwest weather!

All bundled up

The puppies have had a great time playing in the snow. This was earlier this morning. Now the snow comes up to the bellies.

Aaron gives hugs to his stuffed animals

Love the kitty

Night night Aaron...thanks Aunt Julie for my Elephant and Kitty

Kitty is fun to carry around too!

Aaron stands up on his own...finally! :)

Thanksgiving

Thanks mom for the beautiful flowers!

In goes the turkey...

Aaron helps Daddy with his laptop

Finally the turkey is done!

Let the feast begin! Unfortunately, Aaron was sound asleep during the meal. I just didn't have the heart to wake him up, he looked so peaceful So, he ended up having his own private Thanksgiving meal. :)

Aaron was very helpful with the dishes.

Kendra and Steve made the pies after dinner...and Matt serenaded us with holiday music

Thanks Kendra and Steve we had a great Thanksgiving!

Auburn Competion - Vetran's Day

Although they didn't place at the competion, Matt was very proud of them and their incredible improvement. They scored nearly 10 points higher then the previous competition.
