Here comes Santa Claus...

Yesterday we had breakfast at the church house and the kids got to sit on Santa's lap.   Chloe was SO excited to ask Santa for a pink pony with long hair and did just that when she saw Santa.  Later that day she "blessed Santa to bring her a pony with pink hair" in her prayer.  Porter did better than expected with Santa, we actually got some pictures, he looks a little worried but no tears!
We're all busily getting ready for Christmas!  Good-luck with all-you-all and your Christmas prep.
The other pics are just of the storm, just a day later.  Also, Chloe let me curl her hair for the first time!  The curls lasted about an hour, but it was still way fun! 

Yea for Santa!

 

Playing with dad is the BEST

Snow and Wind = pretty cool looking

 

 

What a cutie

 

Poor Porter, it's been like 2 weeks and his nose is still running and on top of being sick he's teething...as you can see by the drool pool on his sweater...however, still cute!

COLD!

The first "real" storm has hit and it's a doozie.  Currently 10 degrees (w/o windy chill factor) and getting colder.  Nothing we haven't experienced in the past year, but for all you people in Utah, it's cold.  All those in Iowa, you know what I'm talking about.
So, here are some pics that are good examples of our weather.

Yes that drift is going over the 8ft fence.

Each time I walk outside with this weather I always think about the pioneers...seriously, I don't know how any were able to survive when they got stuck in this kind-of weather.

I'm SO grateful for my many comforts.

So Silly, yet I find them so much fun! Merry Christmas everyone!
