Christmas 2009!!

Merry Christmas!!!

Merry Christmas to you all!! I hope everyone has a wonderfully magical Christmas spent with all of their loved ones!! It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!!

Fun in the Snow!

I think we pretty much spent the entire weekend outside. There was LOTS of shoveling, LOTS of freezing noses and toes and LOTS of FUN and LAUGHTER! Plus John built the kids a cool snow fort yesterday....even I can get in!! The boys just love playing in the snow. Johnny is SUPER excited that he gets a two week vacation now!! They are in total countdown to Santa!! I can SO remember those days. It always seemed like it took forever, and now it just goes by WAY too fast. I much prefer watching my children's delight during the Holidays though. They are just so full of joy! I will hopefully get TONS of baking done over the next three days!!

LOTS and LOTS of SNOW!

Man oh Man. Can you believe all this snow? It's CRAZY!! The boys are LOVING it! They just had a late lunch and are ready to go back out......too bad I'm not though. I have a feeling John will be shoveling ALL day. Poor guy :( I did help a lot though!!
I have a feeling Johnny might have a longer break than expected!!

HaPpY BiRtHdAy!

Happy Birthday Honey (John/Daddy)!!! We hope you have a WONDERFUL day and Love you very much!!!

Cake Pops!!

The boys and I made these Cake Pops yesterday. Aren't they SO cute!! A friend had brought us some over the summer and we LOVED them. I totally meant to make them after trying them ,but put them on the back burner. Sometimes life just seems to get in the way of baked goods!! :) Anyway....the process is a little time consuming, but SO worth it! We have a Christmas Party tonight and I think I can expect them to be a huge hit....especially with the kids!! I think these would also be a fun alternative to regular cupcakes for school on the kids Birthdays!!

I used a boxed Devil's food cake mix and Butter cream frosting. I think it will be fun to try all different kinds of flavors though!!!

An Early Snow!!

Can you believe how much snow we got today.......and that it's still snowing?!?! How AWESOME!!! I was shocked when I got up this morning! The boys have had on their snow suits since 8am......too funny!! We were supposed to go and cut down our Christmas Tree today, but John is sick. So he spent this morning in the ER. Poor guy has a bad case of Strep :( He is resting peacefully now though! His temperature seems to be coming down....let's just pray it stays that way! We have LOTS of stuff going on this month so I should have tons of cute pictures to post!! I hope you all are enjoying this Beautiful Weather!!
