Some quick pics

Here are some pictures we have taken recently of the girls. Included is Thanksgiving, MC's X-mas program and some random ones just hanging around the house and in the backyard...now that the weather is cooling off a bit we are enjoying our big back yard and feel quite spoiled to have it all to ourselves!! We enjoyed so much having our good friends the Chiens visit for Thanksgiving----MC and Stephen get along great. We have also had the privlege of watching our good friend Harper this past week. The girls love having a little baby around and mommy doesn't mind either. On another note, there is quite interesting picture of me included. I came down with a horrible eye infection earlier this week and could not stand light in the slightest....Chris actuallky could not even go to work and had to put a black sheet over our window that was already covered with blinds. Luckily we got in with a Dr. and I am doing a lot better now, just stuck in my glasses for a bit. Enjoy and hope to keep you up to speed during the Christmas season, we are headed to Wisconsin in 4 days!!! Cannot wait, hoping for some snow and a VERY white X-mas, we'll see!

I had been looking for a tree for the girls play room and this one was generously given to us by a friend of our Auntie Trista---pre-lit and everything. I think we will keep the ornaments off of it and probably just decorate it with tinsel tonight!! We love to rock with the kids at night and have it on back there

This is my new favorite thing----my good friend Emily found this play house on the side of the road...after some scrubbing and a handy dandy power washer you would think it was new---the Girls LOVE it----they esp love to play peek a boo with me

MC with Harper---not sure harper likes us as much as we like her

There is her sweet smile

...and this is how i find her most days
