SnOw DaY!!!!!

Our first snow day of 2011!  Well, the weatherman said it was going to come Sunday and it did.  School was out on Monday and Andrew and Piper are enjoying playing in the snow:)  Here are a few pics!

Andrew's First Basketball Game

Andrew is playing basketball at his school on Saturday mornings.  It's only til Feburary but he is having the best time:)  There are about 8 kids on the team and they have equal playing time.  They play half court and four 5 minute quaters.  It is so fun to watch all of them.  Of course, they don't get fouled for every little thing but the refrees (high school varisty BB players) do encourage them to dribble.  It is so funny to watch them run down the court with their ball clutched in their hands instead of dribbling;0  Daniel is his coach and you can't tell who is having more fun Andrew or Daniel?

Piper's Milestone

Friday Piper and Mommy went for a Girl Day at the mall. I had been thinking about getting her ears pierced since September but I had to do some research. I also wanted to get them pierced before she was old enough to understand what was happening. I went to a couple of places to make sure they would do both ears at the same time. Finally found somewhere that had 2 workers to peirce at the same time. She did great! Of course, she cried at the moment of impact but then they gave her a sucker and she was happy. Now, she doesn't like me cleaning them 3x a day but she really does like them in the mirror. She looks at them all the time:)

Merry Christmas!

Christmas morning started for us around 7am and it was a blast! Andrew and Piper are at the perfect age to enjoy Santa and all of their toys:) Our Christmas was so special this year because family came to our house and we did NOT travel. That was a great gift all by itself. We have really enjoyed having friends and family in town for the Christmas Holiday!
