iPhone Photo Purge

Here are some of my favorite pictures from our phones this year that haven't already been in another post.  I love the convenience of always having something to capture the small moments in our life with!

I asked the girls to clean up.  I was surprised by their eagerness, but this wasn't exactly what I had in mind...

Angel Sighting

The girls were angels again this year in LIFE's Christmas performance on 'Heaven's Come to Earth'.  The part suits them well...they are naturals.

Winter Wonderland

If I had it my way, it would only snow on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning.  However, the girls love the snow.  This year was, by far, the most fun we have ever had in the snow.  They couldn't wait to go out....and didn't want to come in.  

Our first big snowfall was absolutely perfect snowman building weather.  So that is exactly what we did...

Isn't this the most perfect, iconic snowman you have ever seen?!?!?!? 

We named him 'Frosty'.

They were also very in to sledding this year. The green space at the entrance of our neighborhood has the perfect sized hill for beginners.  In just a few short hours they were pros.  They even built a ramp at the bottom to go over.  Seeing the pure joy on their faces made me rethink my hatred for the white death.  

We sure do know how to have fun together as a family!!
