WHEW!!

We are finally in our new house and getting settled. I thought I would try and catch up on a few photos!

Valentines Day. We decided to make felt cookies and "sprinkes" for our friends. They turned out really cute and the girls had a great time making them.


Mom made these super cute mailboxes with the girls, so Jeff and I loaded them up with goodies on Valentines Day.



My sweet Valentines!


While Jeff was at the house with the movers, the girls and I were enjoying some quiet time at the ranch. Here they are hanging out with the cows. They are such animal lovers!



Giving the cows some treats. Julia is in her Easter Bonnet, which she refers to as her Yee-Haw hat. Such a goof.






So, I don't have any photos of the actual move, but I do have photos of what we did while we waited for the trucks..can't beat good friends and margaritas.


One of the first things we did after we moved in was put up Natalie's wall mural. It is adorable and she loves it!





We also got Julia's cowgirl up. She was very excited.


The first week in our new house brought one of the worst snowstorms the city has ever seen! Here are some photos of the snow coming down. It was really beautiful, but a mess!






Of course the girls had to get out and enjoy it!

Julia really wanted Jeff to build a Frosty the snowman....her wish, his command.


Natalie, as always, just wanted to help.


I didn't really think through the fact that Julia wouldn't be able to walk in the snow. It was 15 inches deep and the poor thing would just fall over or yell, "I tuck!! I tuck!!!" Her hat kept falling over her eyes too, which made it even funnier!








The girls helping Jeff shovel.




After playing out in the snow, we came in and made some snow ice cream...yum!





The girls playing with the bean box to pass the time on yet another snow day.



The contractor finally made it back to finish the girls playroom. It is adorable. We finished a small store room and cut a hole out the leads to a finished part under the stairs. The girls use it as their "house" it really is adorable!



Kendra and I now live really close and it is so nice! The girls got a baby fix the other day with Mr. Ilias.


Because one record breaking snow storm wasn't enough, we are getting hit by another one this week. I went to the store to get some necessities, seems like I wasn't the only one that had that idea.


Hopefully we can get some photos of the house up soon! With a couple more snow days, we could get a lot more work done!

Julia's First Haircut

Julia has been begging to have her hair cut.So, tonight after dinner I told Julia that Natalie needed her bangs cut and I would trim her hair too. She really didn't need it trimmed, poor thing doesn't have near the hair that Natalie does!

So, I brought the girls into my salon, aka the bath tub. Julia stood so still and was SO excited!!


She was so excited that we didn't even get her face washed after dinner!


Because Daddy was taking photos of Julia, Natalie wanted to help out with her own video camera. Here she is showing Julia some photos.


Standing so still.


Here it goes!






And then it was Natalie's turn and Julia's turn to take over the camera!



Love Natalie's face her.



And her are Julia's after shots! I think you can tell she was a little excited to show it off. You can't tell from this photo that she just got done throwing one huge fit!!




Puppy Love!

We just love our pup!
