As mad as we were of having to cancel our trip b/c of all this snow, the kids have quite enjoyed it. I can't keep them out of it. We got a few more inches last night and then are supposed to get hit again this weekend so they will love that!!

Christmas morning- the kids had a great time!! Olivia got a horse like she asked. It was really cute b/c she said "I asked Santa for a horse but I NEVER expected this!!" Very sweet!! And everything Billy opened he would say- "I love it sooo much!" JOsie just sat and played with her elephant. They also got new sleds that were probably the best thing b/c of all of the snow we got!!

this is the limo ride we got to go on. The girl I work with had a limo one night and asked if we wanted to go see Christmas lights, well yea!!! The kids just loved it. We went to a place where you sit and watch lights that go to music. Pretty cool. Billy thinks the "big car" is her real car- he asked her where it was the next time she came over!!

Olivia's Christmas Program

Well, here is Olivia before her first concert!! Of course Josie dressed up a bit and as for Billy- well, you see he is what he is and thats what makes him so cute!!! My crappy camera wouldn't take any good pic while she was singing but she did quite well!! It was such a joy to watch her stand up there and sing. And as you also see, she is missing 3 of her teeth right in front! The most noticable ones are the 2 front so she was adorable!! Billy tried to get on stage the whole time so at the end we let him get up there and take a picture!! As for all of the other holiday stuff- I am kindof sucking right now. No decorations out, no fun stuff every day!! We did make cookies the other night and tried to go see Christmas lights but it was an outside deal that you walk around in and it was just too dang cold. But once I can get a moment, we will start doing some stuff. The elf is very present in out house and is definetly helping w/ some of the behavior issues we have. Well, the count down has begun- I am not even talking about Christmas either- I am talking about our much anticipated trip to Texas!!!! 17 days to go....................

For Heather!!! Billy was supposed to be going to bed. I thought he was asleep when I wlaked in and he had gotten his book and was reading it. He said he was looking for the deers!!! Then he started laughing. Love that little guy.

The ones of Josie are what we call cheap entertainment. She was getting bored and so I grabbed some plastic ornaments and tied them to her jumper- she was quite amazed! I think it was more entertaining for all of us adults that were ate the salon to watch her with them.

And the one of Olivia is her in her new bed. She just loves it. She is still pretty scared at night of just about everything so I am trying to think of ways to get her to bed w/out being so scared- we have lights on her bed, the closet light on, the fan on and music going- what else can I do???? But we are very excited b/c in 4 wks we get to go to TEXAS!!! WOOOO HOOOO!!!! We are so so so thrilled to get to join in on the chaos of the Whelan clan- as long as we get Taco Bar!!!!!!
