Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Wow...we got over a foot of snow over the weekend. The kids had such fun. Since we've had so much snow over the last month, we have a snow pile next to our driveway about 8' tall, so Rob dug a little cave in it for the kids to play in... Then Paul and I went inside as he kept taking his gloves off so Rylee and Dad went out back and built a super tall snowman! WE LOVE SNOW!!!!

Tea Party on Friday Night

Rylee had a tea party last Friday night and invited her friend Ainsley over. About half way through the "party" they decided that they should be princesses and went up to Rylee's room to change into princess clothing (see last picture)

Bowling on New Year's Eve

Thanks Rach for taking these pictures! This was part of our group for bowling on New Year's Eve. We had a lot of fun!!! If anyone is ever looking for something to do with Rylee, just take her bowling...she LOVED it! She talked about it for days!

Steelhead Trip

Rob and his buddies headed to Orofino to do some steelhead fishing. Rob was the only one to catch one...it was a keeper!

Paul & Mom Weekend

Since Rylee was with Grams & Pops for the weekend, Paul and I had a quiet evening alone. Here is Paul eating pizza on the fireplace!

Tea Party

Papa, Rylee, Paul and I had a nice tea party on Friday night when Papa stayed over. Rylee is so particular and clean. As you can see from the close up of Paul...he can even make a tea party messy (that is a marshmallow on his face!)

Rylee's Weekend @ Gram & Pops

Talk about having a cush life. Gram and Pops set up the tent for Rylee, put a TV in it and let her eat her meals in there. Since she got home this afternoon, all she has talked about is wanting it to be summer so she can go CAMPING!!!

Our cat, I mean dog

We love Gus' new spot. He reminds us of a cat because he is laying on the back of this chair...

helping in the kitchen

Rylee and Paul decided they wanted to help in the kitchen. So, there project was chocolate covered pretzels...red chocolate probably not the best idea I've ever had....

Paul Proof

So, many new parents will go through their house and "baby proof" things. For all of you who know Paul, baby proofing is NOT good enough. Things must be "Paul Proofed". This picture is of Rob putting plastic onto our fabric chair since Paul seems to spill EVERYTHING!!!!

Rob's New Ride

Isn't he spoiled? 2005 Ford F-150!

Grandma

For those of you who knew about this, my Grandma Hulsizer had her hip replaced this morning. The surgery went great and she is at KMC recovering for the next couple of days...keep her in your prayers!!!!

5 Year Anniversary

Here we are, 5 years later...
The giant cupcake made by Mom & Rylee for the special occassion!

Preschool

Rylee has been doing preschool at her daycare since she started going to Kristy's house. This one is posted on our fridge at the moment. Notice Rylee wrote her own name and is getting pretty good at tracing! Hooray!!!
