Around Our House

Annabeth's version of dress-up! :)

Making chocolate-covered apples (before and after shot)

Playing Wii together (Annabeth is finally getting old enough that she can play too!)

If anyone is looking for the tooth fairy...

...she'll be at my house tonight! Congrats to my little boy! :)

Goodbye Training Wheels!

Yum!

Ethan has been asking me if we could make cookies lately, so today we finally did! Although, apparently I'm not as good at it as Grammi is...Ethan told me many times, "Grammi doesn't put that in", "Grammi doesn't do it that way", "Grammi makes them bigger". I guess now I know how she feels when he tells her all the things mommy does differently when he goes to her house! ;) Even if they weren't quite like Grammi's, the cookies turned out pretty good and I had no problems getting them to eat them!

Beating the batter (Annabeth wouldn't take a turn...she was afraid to hold it):

Licking the batter (the best part!):
Notice Ethan is pouring and Annabeth is eating :)

She finally decided we could put some of *her* chips in the cookies:

Isn't she cute in her little apron??:

Merry Christmas, Happy Birthday!

I hope everyone had a very merry Christmas! Blessing to everyone in the new year!

The first group photo is from the big Winston Christmas, and the second is from the Price Christmas. (PS...AMY! I forgot that you took the group picture at your house with your camera...can you email it to me?? Thanks!:)

Also, my little buddy turned SIX last week and was lucky enough to have two birthday parties (one with Queenie and Granny, and one at home). I can't believe how fast he's growing!!

Here is a cute little video of Annabeth playing Ethan's Ukulele...she's pretty cute! ;)

O Christmas Tree

Here they are! Pictures of our Christmas tree adventure! We now have our first Christmas tree sitting in the living room of our first house and all is right with the world. :) Ethan and I really enjoyed ourselves. Brandon was absolutely convinced that we had chosen a puny tree...until we got it into our living room and he realized what a big, fat tree it is! And Annabeth, the girl who loves to be outside and dirty, complained the whole time, "Mom! I'm cold and I'm dirty! Let's go home!" I politely told her that she was having fun and that she was going to remember these times fondly when she gets older. ;)

"Look! A little red tree!"
Oops!

Annabeth "helped" Daddy by filling his wagon with all the log pieces she could find.

Brandon cutting down the puny tree:

Putting on the ornaments!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Belated Halloween

I know that this is way late, but I realized after I posted Thanksgiving pictures that I completely forgot to post Halloween pictures! Oops. So, better late than never, here they are...Batman and Batgirl!
