SWOOOOOOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tonight the four of us went in search of some great sledding slopes!!! Boy did we find some!!! We spent a couple hours flying down the slopes sending squeals of excitement into the air!!!! Maddisen was ALLLLL over it right from the start but Emma took a little convincing to try it. It only took one run down the hill and Emma couldn't get enough!!!!! While we were sledding I told Dusty that we should blow up the inflatable boat that we haven't used in years and take it with us tomorrow. He was all over that so tonight he dug it out of the garage and blew it up!!! Somehow we both remember it being MUCH bigger,,,,hmmm I wonder if it shrunk or,,,,ya I know what your thinking,,,that can't possibly be what happened,,ANYWAY!!! We had so much fun tonight that when we came home we called a bunch of friends in the area and we are going to hit the slopes again tomorrow!!!! Can't wait to rip it up again ! (that was Keith's (AKA Dusty's) comment :) In the last picture Daddy is showing Emma how to lean while sledding,,,,,I like the intense look on your face!!!hahahaha!

Christmas DAY!!
Maddisen came running into our bedroom about 7:30 screaming," he came, he came,, Santa came!!!!" Emma was still snug in her bed with visions of sugar plums dancing in her head (next year we will have to keep Maddisen up even later I guess ;) So we got up while Maddisen woke up her sister with hugs and kisses! Emma came around the corner into the livingroom and said, "Oh MY,,,Oh MY!!!!" Santa had left presents everywhere and stockings filled to the top that were as tall as them!!! Every year Santa leaves the girls a note in his "Santa scribble" and it was fun for Maddisen to be able to read it to us. She was almost all the way through the letter when she stops and says, " Boy, Santa sure needs to practice his writing more!" Too funny!!! We had so much fun spending time together and enjoying each others excitement! Merry Christmas!
The girls are setting out the cookies, milk and carrots for Santa and the Reindeer! Those carrots sure are looking old,,,hope the reindeer don't mind. We'll get you some fresh ones next year!!
Santa spoiled the girls with pink leapsters and a ton of learning games!!! They were beyond excited!!! I love leapster because the girls brains are working while they play. Maddisen was adding and subtracting, reading and building words, while Emma was sounding out words, building patterns and counting! Love that!!!
