Our First Snow

It has snowed most of the day today, and we've all been so giddy. We now have a long shopping list of water-resistant outwear and a snow shovel to get. We didn't keep the cameras out too long because they were getting pretty wet, but we captured a few memories. One of the memories I hope to forget is when I hit Audrey smack in the face with a snowball. Andy started the fight and I missed on one of my retaliations. It hit Audrey square in the face. Poor thing bawled until we got all the ice out of her jacket and dried her face off.

Look What Aunt Jenn found for $3!!!

She kind of likes it.

And everyone knows princesses help those in need.

Kara fell and Audrey said, "I help her up." She walked over to Kara and said, "Hold out your hand." Kara did, and Audrey (sorta) pulled her up. Kara thought that was a hoot, so she walked ten steps, plopped down on her butt with a smile, and held her arm up. So cute!!

Isn't my youngest niece adorable? My siblings and I make some wonderful and cute kids.

Disney Pajama Party

The Disney Store had a Pajama Party a couple weekends ago. We knew it would be fun for Audrey to put her princess PJs and slippers on and head to her favorite store. They had coloring pages for the kids when we first got there. Then they played a pictionary type game, passed out snacks, and had storytime. Audrey loved it!! Andy expected more from DISNEY, but I reminded him it was the store, not the park. LOL!

School Feast

Audrey had a Thanksgiving feast at school yesterday. Before they ate, the kids sang a turkey song. I am so proud of my girl!!! She was the only one in her class to do the dance moves, and she beamed the whole time. I just wish I had the video camera instead. I had no idea what to expect.

Not for Halloween

Audrey had a wonderful surprise when she woke up from nap today! Aunt Jenn and Nanny sent her a Princess Belle dress complete with crown and light up shoes. Audrey has really gotten into dress-up (thanks to her new friend Noelle), so Santa has planned to bring her lots of dress-up clothes for Christmas this year.... especially princess dresses. This is not her Halloween costume. You'll get to see that on Saturday night.

The Pumpkin Patch

My oldest niece and nephew, my sister and my mom are all here visiting, so we took the kids to the pumpkin patch at Cox Farms. Included in your admission were fresh apples and cider, and a free pumpkin. I think this was the first time Audrey ate from a whole apple.

School Picture Day

Tuesday was Picture Day at Audrey's school, so of course we searched long and hard for the perfect outfit. In fact, I spotted this dress while shopping with my mother-in-law before school even started. I originally wanted it to be her first day of school outfit, but I'm glad we couldn't find it in her size then because it was perfect for picture day. After I searched about 5 stores that sell Carter's clothing in my area, my friend Cindy found it while vacationing in Williamsburg. (Yes, I had a few people on the lookout.) Audrey's teachers said he wasn't happy to have her picture taken, but that they did get her to smile and that there were some sweet ones without smiles. I can't wait to see what they look like, but the ones I took are AMAZING!!

This one with Nana is silly, but I wanted you to see the whole outfit.
