We went camping at the end of march.  The girls had a blast.  We took some hikes and they made a huge fire with Ryan.  They love getting dirty.  

The kitchen is done!

Here it is.  All our hard work is finally finished and I am one happy baker.  

girls get a haircut

So, there is this really cute salon by our school for little girls.  They do manicures and pedicures and haircuts.  I took the girls because it was half off.  They got the cutest haircut had a great time.  I wish they could do mine. 

karate kids

The girls have begun karate.  They have wanted to take it for awhile and we won an auction at school for lessons.  They look cute in their outfits, but they pack a punch!

christmas in ohio

This year we went up to Ohio for Christmas.  The girls informed us that it was the best christmas ever because it was spent with cousins.  We had a late Christmas eve because the kids could not settle down.  The girls were really excited with their new bikes from santa, Eli and Abby got a new teepee that was a big hit!  Ryan took the kids out on Christmas day so everyone could ride bikes at the park.  It really was a great christmas.  

gingerbread houses

What's christmas time without a gingerbread house.  

Christmas dresses

Grandma and Grandpa Smith sent the girls a Christmas dress.  They love that it is pink and sparkly.  What can I say, I love girls.  Thanks, grandma and grandpa!
