Performance by Anna and Rosey

Anna (Haidyn) and Rosey (Eli) put on a dance for us.  I had to record it so I have something to show his girlfriend when he's a teenager.  :)

Daddy daughter dance

St John's had their first ever daddy daughter dance.  Haidyn was a little nervous about it,  she wasn't sure how to dance with daddy.  But she got a new dress and went along with it.  They both had a lot of fun!  According to Mike, it was the most he had ever danced sober and Haidyn says she was so hyper from too much punch!

Ice skating, round two

Haidyn and her friend Jordan have been asking to go skating for the longest time.  We finally found a time they both could go and we decided to bring their little brothers and they could play.  Well,  the boys wanted to skate too and we had a great time!  Eli was a natural out on the ice!

Over a foot

What do you do when it snows and snows and snows?  Play!  Who says sand box toys are just for sand! The kids had a great time digging and building in the snow!

Ice skating

Haidyn had been wanting to go ice skating all winter.  There is a rink one block from school,  but skate rentals don't begin until 4 o'clock.  So I broke down and got Haidyn her own skates so we could go right after school.  She did great for her first time and can't wait to go again!

Sledding!

Our first sledding of the season!  Finally got some snow and it was above 25 degrees. Kids had a lot of fun out on the hill with some friends. I was a little worried the first time Eli went down,  but he wasn't scared at all and didn't even mind when he wiped out!

Christmas!

We spent Christmas at home this year.  It was a little weird to not have snow for Christmas,  but we managed.  :) Kids had a good time and got too many presents.  Santa brought them a wii u and mommy and daddy got each other a new TV for downstairs,  so we have quite the set up now.  Each time I ask the kids what their favorite present was,  I get a different answer,  so it seems they are really enjoying all their gifts!
