Snow, Snow, and more Snow

We have been having a lot of snow storms here lately. Kids were out of school in December for a few days and then have been out several more this month. The funny thing is that I didn't get the camera out until about two weeks ago. Not sure why I waited so long, but decided I needed to be taking pictures of the kids in the snow.
The first snow storm on the 5th with the progression throughout the day. It kept snowing these really BIG snowflakes. I thought it looked really pretty but didn't seem to be sticking. Then all of a sudden I looked outside and everything was white.
One happy kid to be outside in the snow and one who has decided she doesn't like to have her picture taken anymore.
Noah started this snowman before Paisley and I made it outside. He finished it by himself and then I helped him with the arms and face. He was very proud of his work.
They both love the snow and couldn't get enough of it.
When Matt came home from work he quickly changed clothes and ran outside to play with Noah. Matt didn't want to be out done by Noah so he built his own snowman. By the time he was done Noah had already decided two plus hours in the snow was enough and came inside.
This is what the yard looked like after Matt's snowman.

A Drischler Christmas

So much fun for one weekend. Due to my brother having ankle surgery (repairing torn cartilage) we traveled to North Carolina to celebrate Christmas with my family. A quick recap of the events included...tea parties, lots of playing outside (jumping on the trampoline, scooters, soccer, baseball), watching lots of football, having a surprise birthday party (my sister Jody turns the big 4-0 January 13), and a quick game of poker...
My family
(Should I include bonus points here for if you can match each spouses and double points if you can find all their kids??)




In case you were wondering he's doing just fine.
Jewelry and Stickers...what else you got in there.

Surprise!!
We also played "Let Jody tell us," Pete's version of a toast/roast
Poker

Christmas at home

We spent Christmas at home again this year. We loved it and the kids did too!
Waking up Paisley. We got Noah to stay with us until about 7:00 and then he had had it. Paisley was very gracious about being woken up so early.

"Our cookies are gone!"
Taking after Grandpa Price, Noah read off all the names and started making piles for everyone before he would open his presents.
Notice the difference...Paisley ripped into hers and Noah with his pile.
Opening their present together.

Paisley's and her baby. This is what she does all day!

Following Santa's trail throughout the house.
Christmas dinner...mom and dad came to join us.

Merry Christmas!!

We hope that you had a wonderful Christmas and remembered the reason for the season!! So far we have celebrated with Matt's family, our small group, and our own family. We are looking forward to celebrating with my family soon.

The only family photo we got this year. Oops! At least we still have one more Christmas to go.

My wonderful small group! Love you girls!! Just in case we were wondering how many kids are in that picture....

14 and we love everyone one of them!!

Here is a glimpse into our family Christmas. Hope to get those pictures off the camera soon, but you know my record right now...

Yes, Noah wrote his own name

Happy Early Halloween

So yes there are lots of things that are keeping up busy lately. Wish I could be better at updating. Here are a few to keep you laughing!
Paisley's outfit the other day... her socks on her hands, her tutu, and my sewing tape as her necklace. Yes, she did this all by herself.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
No, these are not their costumes. Just some dress up clothes that they are enjoying lately. If they would stop pulling each others tails I think they would both be more happy.

Where have we been lately?

We have had lots of visits with cousins (or I should say we had...that was August and September.) Then we have been busy with friends, changing the house a little, Noah's preschool lessons, and my newest adventure...
The Little Dumplin' aka my small business. I'm still trying to work on some things, but feel free to take a look and hopefully one of these days when I feel like we are caught up (will that ever happen?) I'll try to post more pictures.
