January so Far...


My mom made all the girls ponchos for Christmas. They are so cute!


 We never know how we're going to find the twins sleeping! Very rarely are they each in their own beds!


 Henry and the girls
When they were newborns and bald- on the same couch! :) Good buds.

 The girls were so smitten with Nora, "The Cutest Baby in the World."

Elijah and his best bud, Gilbert, were so happy to have a few days to play together while their dads were hiking in the Canyon! 

Just a pretty sunrise when a storm was rolling in. 

 We planted some carrots and lettuce in the greenhouse- hopefully they'll take! Can't wait to get back to home-grown salads!

 Moses thinks he's very helpful.

Beautiful view from our park! 

Berea lost her first tooth! 

Hiking Old Cave's Crater





This is our neighborhood! Our house is on the far left in the middle. All the hills are volcanic, in case you wanted to know. Christian would want you to know anyway. :)

The red thing is a bug! Possibly a tick.

Sledding!

We finally took the kids sledding! There was at least 30 inches of powdery snow, so it was a bit of a chore getting a run packed down. But the kids were great and even patient with the somewhat annoying Phoenicians who kept walking in the run!















 Back to Grandma's house to thaw out!

Snow Day!!!



 Too chicken to play in the snow...



 Warm in the greenhouse, but wishing the kids would come in and snuggle!














 Eating snow

 Shoveling a path with her hands...

 I'll pass on grilling today!
