Gingerbread House

Gary and the girls decided to make a gingerbread house on Black Friday while I was out shopping. Getting ready to make it!

Hannah put the hat on all by herself

Hannah helped me clean to get ready to put up the Christmas decorations, here she is "cleaning" the glass table!

Making it perfect, well trying!

All done!

The finished product!

Not bad for their first one!

Update!

So I finally got my car back yesterday! After almost a month it is finally fixed. Of course they are never the same after you get into an accident, there are a few more squeaks than before, but I'm just glad to have it back!!

What a week!

We have had a crazy couple of weeks lately! It all started with our accident. Then we went to the ER the day after to get checked, Kenzie was bruised and I was really sore, Hannah was fine. Then we spent the next week sick. Hannah was so bad we actually had to take her to the ER (again!) to get IV fluids because anytime she would eat or drink anything she would puke it back up! Here she is at the hospital. She felt much better after the IV fluids, but we spent 7 hours at the hospital.

I am just glad we are all feeling better! What a crazy week (or two actually!)
They were so good to her at the hospital they even gave her a little bear.

Plus I finally found out my car has $5600 worth of damage done to it...thank god for car insurance!

Crazy couple days

So we have had a crazy couple days. On the way to my sister's house after school on Thursday we were rear ended. We were all fine, but the car....not so much. Got word yesterday that they should be able to fix it. We spent 4 hours in the emergency room on Friday morning because I woke up really sore and Kenzie said her chest hurt. She had to have a chest xray, she just had a bruise from her car seat. I am also good just going to be sore for a couple of days! We are so lucky that the accident wasn't any worse.
The doctors and nurses at the hospital were really nice and gave the girls a goody bag.
We will find out on Monday just how much damage was done to my car, but at least we are all good!

Trick or Treat!

Getting ready to go trick-or-treating. We went trick-or-treating in our neighborhood this year.
Hannah just wanted to ride in the wagon!

Relaxing!

We only went to a few houses with Hannah because it was kindof chilly. After we got back home Gary & Hannah stayed home and passed out candy while Kenzie & I went back out with McKenna & her mom, Coleen! We had lots of fun!

Aunt Diane had a Halloween party last night at her house! Everyone (well almost) dressed up. We had so much fun!
