Snow!



We don't have a sledding hill at our house, so the boys improvised...!
 
 


Even Ellie got in on the fun!

Elfie and Barfing

Elfie played another trick last night by parking herself on the window seat with some miniature hershey's kisses and making a mess! I actually wrapped chocolate chips in tin foil and put a little chocolate on Elfie's face for the kids to find! Before morning, though, Liam woke up and said he had a stomach ache...and then puked all over our bedroom floor. Poor kid. He slept on the couch and felt better this morning. He and Max were both very excited to see what Elfie had been up to...during the night...and the barfing episode...

Elfie Update

Our elf has just drawn a Christmas tree on the bathroom mirror with toothpaste...the boys are going to love it when they wake up and find her holding the toothpaste tube in there!

Happy St. Nick's Day!

St. Nick visited our house veeeeeery early this morning in a sleep-deprived stupor after a long shift at work! The boys have been asking for "Elf on a Shelf" and St. Nick brought it for them! The elf somehow busted through the wrapping paper, though, and then wound toilet paper around the Christmas tree before perching herself on a top branch! Liam got the Junie B. Jones Christmas book he's been wanting, and Max got "Yummy, Yucky" by Leslie Patricelli, one of our favorite author/illustrators! St. Nick also left some treats in their stockings AND some "north pole snow" scattered around the living room.

The boys named their girl elf "Elfie" and are very excited to see where she will end up tomorrow morning!

911 Christmas Party



My co-worker, Amber, hosted a "wine and cheese"/"cookie exchange" night at her house for all past and present 911 dispatchers. It was a ton of fun. It was nice to visit with everyone outside of work, and just relax and have a night out. Plus, everyone made great Christmas cookies to share! I've had a hard time meeting good friends my age since moving to Green Bay, and now I'm finally in a job where there are a lot of young moms and fun ladies! We don't often have much time to hang out away from work (most of us are sleeping if we're not working!), but I still count many of them as great friends! Hopefully when things calm down and we all have a little more free time we will get our families together, too!
