The Big Family Sleep Over!!

Much fun was had two nights ago when we had our fifth annual Christmas time sleep over! And as is tradition, the "sleepy time fairy" delivered jammies:









We played games and ate yummy snacks:


We played "Midnight", "I'm going on a camping trip" and "Sleeping Bear" in our sleeping bags and told stories:




And finally, we slept:



This is, by far, the kids favorite tradition at Christmas time and we were extra excited to have Grandma join us for the fun!


Oh, and it's still snowing! We have at least two and a half feet on the ground (and that's a conservative estimate) and another 6-12 inches forecasted for tonight! We may be keeping Grandma a few extra days!


Check out our table:


And that little bit on color in our backyard is Noah's Little Tykes picnic table.


I tried to get a good picture of our front yard, but all you can see it white:

And finally, a picture of our roof:

When the snow finally gets too heavy for the tree branches, it falls and creates a big powdery snow dumping that's beautiful and awesome. You can't even see through it. Noah loves to watch them.
