Good buds

The other night we watched our friends kids. They have a little boy Jacob that is 3 months older than Vanessa and they have become pretty good buds. He is very laid back and they play well together (at least what their attention spans allow).

New blinds finally!

Reading the title of this post may sound cheezy, but those people that know about our backdoor this was a milestone yesterday. Putting the blinds up in our windows rather than having a redneck bedsheet covering them is something to celebrate. This simple fix has made the doors look very nice, now the last thing to do will be to finally paint them! Stay tuned in another couple years!

Last flag football game

This was the Nolan's last flag football game of the season. Grandma and Grandpa Hansen drove all the way down for it, stayed a little bit afterwards, and headed back home. Thanks grandma and grandpa for doing that - Nolan appreciated that a lot! Nolan had 6 tackles (got the kids flags) and scored a 30 yard touchdown. You can tell from one of the pics that he was pretty happy. He is now getting ready to start Jr. Jazz in January. He's a pretty good little player and his mom and dad are proud of him.

Halloween Dresses

My friend and I made dresses for our girls (yes sisters I actually sewed these dresses myself). Madelyn loves her dress! They were easy and fun. I can't wait to make some different dresses for the girls.

First Snow of the Season

Today we woke up to 4" of snow on the ground. Nolan and Madelyn were so excited to play in the snow. After church they got dressed and went out and played. Vanessa even went out but only for about 5 minutes. She just stood in one spot and didn't move until I said "come here". She didn't know what to think of the snow. She wanted to touch it but when she did it was too cold.
