It's been a crazy end to 2013, but all in all it's turned out to be a pretty good year. Ups and downs, as every year has. A week ago or so it was 45 degrees, almost spring like--snow was gone--yup spring like!
Then this happened-----------------------
We settled in to celebrate Christmas, anyway! First with Jackson and Jenna up from KC. Jackson thought his John Deere Tractors were "Awesome" . He had some serious discussions with Grandpa, the JD expert on how they all worked.
Jenna had a more serious response to her gift card and presents. Hard to believe they are growing up so fast.
At home we had 2 parties--one on the 27th and one on the 29th!
Dakota decided to wait it out UNDER the tree (and sometimes IN the tree).
Tell us more about Christmas --do we get presents, too! Dakota decided he could help wrap--in charge of the ribbons, he tried to keep them unknotted!and why are the presents hig up on a table--Hmmm- could it be that some critters would be snooping and tearing and chewing them up???
At any rate Christmas got celebrated.
and today we are back to building snowmen--inside!
and Dakota---well he's just glad all the commotion is over and he can just curl up on mom's lap and sleep !!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! May 2014 be our craftiest year yet!
