I woke up this morning and got the babies out of bed and we came to the living room, like I do every morning, I opened up the curtains and to my surprise there was about 2 inches of snow on the ground! I had no idea it was even supposed to snow. Excitedly I yelled for the babies to come to the window and told them what it was. Asher's favorite word to say when he sees something he thinks is cool is "WOW", so that is what he said, followed by "I touch it"? To which mommy replied, not right now, it's too cold! Lilly ran around the house saying "it's snowing"! It was really cute and I can't wait to take them out this winter to actually play in it.
After about a 3 hour nap this afternoon for mommy and babies (daddy couldn't fall asleep) we woke up, popped some popcorn and found "The Santa Claus" on TV. We watched that for awhile and then got the tree out along with what little decorations we have. As we were taking everything out of the bins Brad and I realized that we might need to invest in some new Christmas items as well as a tree for next year. We have had most of our Christmas stuff for about 10 years, although we do buy one new ornament for the tree every year. I love getting out the ornaments and remembering what all we have. Some of our ornaments are really unique and i love how different our tree looks because of that. Some of my favorite ones are some that Brad's grandma made years ago and his mom found them and thought we might like to have them. The babies "helped" hang some of the ornaments on the tree while mommy went behind them and fixed them a little. Whenever Lilly would get one to actually stay on the tree she would proclaim "I did it!" We hadn't put up a tree in two years, 1st time because I was about ready to pop with twins and the 2nd time because we were packing for the move to IN, so I was very excited to put a tree up this year and share that with the babies. I was so thrilled after we got done that I got a little carried away with taking pictures, seriously, I took like 100 pictures! I went thru them and although it was hard, I picked out a few I really liked....
