It's a winter wonderland!

Wow where does the time go? I have been completely ignoring my blog so hopefully someone out there is still checking up on it! I guess I mostly write on this for myself though. We had some pretty big snow storms a few weeks ago which made the world so lovely. It snowed just the way I like it to - a whole bunch all at once so you only have to shovel the driveway once or twice and you're done. Not that I ever shovel the driveway. Usually Josh does it and quite often our neighbor does it for us with his snow plow attached to his 4-wheeler. We have the best neighbors. Anyways I really like the snow as long as I don't have to go anywhere in it and it's not April when snow season should be DONE. It's just so pretty though.
It's nice that this year they can put their snow suits on mostly by themselves. It's still a lot of work but doesn't take nearly as long as last year! However, now that the twins are potty trained, inevitably somebody has to go potty 2 minutes after we've gone through the whole process of getting the suits on.
We're running on a tight schedule this December. Almost every day until Christmas has something. I love to go downtown and see the lights at temple square as a family. It just puts me in the Christmas mood. It's generally a bit of a pain to Josh but since it's important to me he does it and tries not to get stressed out. We picked the best night to go! It was hardly even cold and the kids were great and we got the best parking spot right on main street. We lasted almost twice as long as last year! We also got all the kids a new hat and pair of gloves since last year I was unprepared for the cold so that helped a lot.
We think maybe Tanner was yawning in this picture. He's pulling quite a face.
Camryn was wearing her warm, little duck suit so she pulled her duck face. She does this face all the time. It's so funny.
