This past weekend we went with Grandpa, Uncle Jason and the Odglens to help them pick out Christmas trees. It had just snowed the night before, so the girls had fun frolicking in the snow. Grandpa helped them make good snowballs, and taught Maggie what to look for in a good tree (after which Maggie walked to every tree, brushed off the snow, said "hmm", and then "I think this is the perfect tree!").

Santa was there too, so we had a little visit with him. Maggie told him she wants a balance beam (which my crafty man is handling), and Evie sat there avoiding all eye contact (as expected).
Getting ready for Christmas
We had a really great time walking around the tree farm... but I'm still a believer in my good old fake tree! No mess, no work, and all the Christmas spirit!
Maggie's buddy had a birthday party at a bounce house this weekend. Both girls had a great time running around, and the staff was so helpful - they played with the kids, and helped them climb the tougher stuff.

The girls didn't know I was taking this video, but I was proud to see Maggie happily sharing her ice cream with Evie instead of whining - little moments.
Last night we had our first huge snow of the year. The girls had a great time playing around while Daddy did most of the snow-blowing.
