Snow Day

Snow day with dad, in Payson, AZ. This was the girls first experience with snow. As you can see some enjoyed it more than others.





Angel Alert

The oldest and I went to her first Christmas play. It was playing at a local church, with her best friend staring in it. The play lasted about 45 minutes and she sat for most of it. She really liked all the singing and acting. The youngest wanted to go, but is was way past her bedtime.
