First Snow in Boise

Right before school got out for winter break the snow came down... Even in Boise,Idaho. The kids & I we're shocked because we we're told by the locals not to expect snow in our front yards. It wouldn't stick around and you could only see it on the mountains surrounding Boise all winter. The kids saw the snow and had to go play in it before it disappeared for sure.

Oh What Fun!!

We took the night from activites so we could decorate our home for Christmas. The kids shared one gingerbread house this year and it turned out to be quite cute. Sage decorated most of the house, Katy decorated all the trees and Nolan was in charge of eating the green frosting and decorating one side panel of the house. It was fun to see them working together without "fighting" much!! Later in the evening Katy asked if we could eat the gingerbread house for Christmas breakfast.

After the gingerbread house was complete we decorated our tree. Sage was so meticulous, Katy wanted to do all the Disney character ornaments & Nolan wanted to help by lumping the small ornaments on top of the branches, he had to "do it by hims self".
