more hot cocoa please

Here are some images of our latest and largest snowfall in Maryland. We got about 3 feet and there is another storm on its way. We've all been having a great time sledding, playing on the "mountain" right in front of our house, drinking cocoa and playing games.
Our deck looked like the Sahara desert, but with loads of snow instead of sand.

This is what we opened our door up to on Saturday morning.

Steve with the girls reading by the fire.

Alison, Lauren and friend Kailyn playing in the snow.


Steve, Lilly and Bailey went for a little sled ride (this picture was before the storm).


I have been very neglectful for not putting Lauren's 5th Birthday party pictures up. So, here you go- Princess dress up party with lots of pink + sugar + friends = Positvely Perfect Party


The girls all decorated and frosted their own princess sugar cookies.


Lauren is such a sweet girl. She is a little mother to Bailey and Lilly. She has many friends and her best friend is Alison. She loves anything fancy- just like her favorite character Fancy Nancy. Her favorite colors are pink, purple and white. Painting and working with glitter glue are her mediums of choice. We are a blessed family to have such a Lauren girl in our home. We love you Lauren.

Disney World!

This January we went to Disney World and met up with Grandma,Papa and the Moe family. We had a great time despite the cold weather. Here are a few pictures of our adventures with Mickey!

Our family at the castle

The four cousins. Taima, Sai, Alison and Lauren

Hanging out with Cinderella. The girls were so excited to meet her! They all dressed up in princess regalia. Lilly loves to point at this picture and say "Lalalala" (Translation: Cinderella. In baby babble)

The castle at night. It really was a magical place

We got to meet quite a few Disney characters. Here we are with Woody and Jessie.

We gave the girls each some money to spend at Disney World. This was Lauren's must-have purchace. She looked very cute.

Becuase of the cold weather, the crowds weren't that big and we got to go on a lot of rides.

Grandma and Papa with the Disney grand kids.

Here's Lilly looking cool on our drive home from Orlando
