Roommates!!

The chicas are officially roommates!!! If you’re wondering how it’s going...well, pretty much as expected. We’ve worked out a couple strategies that help with bedtime but mostly we’ve just become accustomed to a certain amount of shenanigans. 

And shenanigans are okay. After all, most great memories involve some amount of silliness. As long as that silliness doesn’t affect MY sleep, it’s all good. 

Snow Day!!!

Lily has her first ever SNOW DAY!!! 

It’s just the yellow snow you shouldn’t eat...right?

Layla actually had fun in the snow!! She’s normally not a fan of being cold, or falling and not being able to get up, or having stuff thrown at her. But today she didn’t mind and it was SUPER fun!!!

All the Christmas Things

We’ve been doing all the Christmas things!!

We saw Christmas in the sky. Fireworks are cool any time of the year!! Pictures don’t even come close to showing how cool it is though so you just have to imagine it. 

Also we decorate our house. BJ did a great job! And we thought it was the coolest ever u til we saw the coolest ever light show on someone’s house. 

30 minutes later and we still hadn’t seen the whole set! They had some classics but they also had the lights set to the Trans Siberian Orchestra. Lily said she liked the rock ones best. 

Also we saw Santa. I thought Layla hated it but she carries the picture around with her all day. 


Every year, Christmas gets more and more fun with these chicas. 

Family Pictures

Our church is updating their website and needed new staff pictures so we had some quick family pictures taken. Do you know how hard it is to get 4 people to look in one direction when they’re all hungry and ready for naps. Hard. REALLY hard. 

Trick or Treating

Halloween was chilly and slick but still super fun!! Lily was a tooth fairy. Layla was a princess. But you couldn’t tell because they were both wrapped up in winter coats. 

Leaf Extravaganza

The weather has been beautiful. The leaves have been beautiful. The sky has been beautiful. And these sweet girls are ALWAYS beautiful. 

Lily Girl Wrote Her Name

Lily Girl wrote her name in a totally legible way! I mean, we have a little work to do with that Y. But check that out!!! Next, maybe she can write my grocery list.
