Cute little Rudolph!

And eat of course!

Make a plate full of friends to share with your friends!

We finally put together our cupcakes. Baking cupcakes is one of Hannah's favorite things to do with me. :) I love it too. She is so sweet in the kitchen. I am also happy to have a cute post about Hannah finally. They are so easy to make and I got the idea from a friend at church. Check out the pics...it's pretty self explanatory. We are leaving one for Santa tonight!

Can you say a little snow is a good thing?

We can't go anywhere unless we walk and we don't have snow shoes. :(

There is a nice thick layer of black ice under everything.

We had a snow storm Wednesday night to Thursday night and ended up with 23" in 24 hours. We are still getting a little snow here and there so shoveling is a must to keep on top of things. I would of had a lovely post on Hannah's Christmas program at school but it got canceled. We love Hannah too, but this blog does seem to be all about Maizer. Sigh - I'll have to post something on her soon to even it out. :) Here are a few pics of Josh shoveling out the cars.

Maizer turns 2!!

Homemade mac and cheese which Maizer didn't want anyway so he had chicken nuggets. I can never guess what he will eat and like. It changes too much. :)

Maizer loves Elmo. He calls him "Melmo".

Maizer turned two last Monday the 15th. He is a toddler now. sniff,sniff I know I shouldn't feel sad but my baby isn't really a baby anymore. Good thing I have another on the way! :) Hannah was hilarious. She wanted to be a "big helper" and help Maizer open all his presents. She was so sweet about it. I am glad she will get to open her own presents for Christmas because I felt kinda bad that she didn't have anything of her own to open. But she quickly adopted his toys for her own and left him with two cars. Here are some cute birthday pics.

Oompa Loompa

Notice the hair and slight curl. So funny!

Daddy made Maizer into an oompa loompa that is hilarious. He doesn't have the actual costume or face paint but other than that we cracked up good over this one. :)

Christmas is coming together!

This calendar has been in the family for a long, long time. I remember having it when I was a little girl, so it is really fun to keep it for my family.

We decorated our home and got our tree up the first week of December. Here is what we have. I think it is beautiful and I love the atmosphere. :) Sorry the Christmas tree is blury and I didn't know it when I took it. But here it is anyway.
