Busy WEEK

It's been a busy weekend leading into a busy busy week.
My sister / brother in law came down for a visit for the long weekend. So lots of late nights were had by all. This week my husband goes for sinus surgery on Wednesday.
Work is going to be busy we are short staffed nurses.
and I'm sure there are many other things that are going to occupy my time.
Oh I need to get sleep now.

Snow time

This weekend we had a GREAT weekend. Sat. we went sledding with friend of ours who also has three little girls. Then it was back here for Chili & play time.
Sunday was more fun with the same girls & their daddy at the ice rink. It was lots of fun we were able to take their just 2 year old out on the ice with single blade skates. All the girls had a GREAT Time. We were lucky enough to get an invite back to their house for play/dinner. Oh did I mention our friend did all this without his wife who was out of town. Its great to know other dads are willing to take his three little girls out and be adventurous even without his wife.

Now to share the pictures with their mommy.. Next time lets hope she can join us.

2011

The year has started off to be a busy one!!

Back to work

Well the day has finally come. I get to go back to work after a 3 month hiatus due to circumstances way beyond my control. But thanks to a Senator's office I got my paper work to go back a little out of order than normally expected. Wish me luck.

Christmas

It's quickly appoaching. I think the shopping is finally done well that is excluding food shopping.
Skating, sledding and lots of family fun is ahead of us.

Wordless Wednesday

 

Sunday Family Fun

 

We had a lot of fun taking the ladies skating today. We found out all three girls have out grown their skates from last year so a trip out shopping will be required before our next skating adventure.

Even though Sundays have laundry, homework & getting ready for the week ahead it was Great FUN going out and doing something fun as a family for a few hours. Now I need to get off the computer and get all those things that didn't get done DONE!!

Christmas Cards

This year we have decided to be a little more environmentally friendly and save me some time. We have sent an electronic Christmas card. Unfortunately not everyone we know has email (or that we have their address). So if you received a card and know someone who cares about us & would love to see the picture of the girls please share.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Oh Christmas Tree

When I was growing up we never put up a tree until the weekend before Christmas because my sister has a birthday on the 16th of December. So when I moved out & started a family that just seemed like the way to do. This is however hubby some how has changed my mind and our tree was bought this weekend and decorated. We'll see how the girls do.

Going out to pick our tree was really nice this year. Usually we've gone and bought from the boy scoots but this year we went to a horticultural store and bought from them (wasn't nearly as cold still outside kinda). The store even had people to load / tight the tree down on the truck. This is our first christmas in our new house and getting the tree in was painless.

So far things are going very easy and effortless for xmas so lets hope they continue.

Hard at Work

Today the girls did not have school so the nany had them HARD at WORK being santa's elves. The girls with the help of the nanny are making xmas gifts for some family members. They are way too cute!
