Snow, a doll and a goodbye

We got snow! Last week was an interesting and exciting week. First, we got snow, a LOT of it. Liz stayed home from school, then there was no school on Friday due to the flooding caused by the snow melting.

Mom and dad left for the MTC a few days ago, they are heading to Moscow,
Russia for their mission.

Liz and I went to American Girl this weekend to celebrate her birthday.

A ninja in the Nativity

Sam insisted, there were ninjas at the nativity. So, here he is at our family Christmas party, a ninja. (yes, he is holding a buffalo)

James was the donkey, but all we had was a doggie hat. Here he is panting, because he thought he was a doggie.
Lizzy was Mary, here we are pregnant together.
AND, here's Phil on his first day of full-time student teaching. Thanks mom for the math tie, he loves it!
AND, thanks to Traci for her camera! I'm so excited I can take pics of the fam again!
