Our Weekend.

We have had a busy couple of days. Since Friday, Matt has snow blown the driveway 3 or 4 times (and he'll be back out again tomorrow at 4 a.m.), we went to a birthday party for our friend Abbey, we ate at the carry-in dinner at church, hung out at Mom & Dad's, booked some photography jobs, met some new friends, went grocery shopping and had some fun hanging out at home! Phew! Lilly "helped" her daddy with the driveway by pushing her lawn mover through the snow for awhile. The real snow blower was a little loud for her and we mostly watched Daddy do the real work from the window in the foyer. The snow was fun, nonetheless!
Saturday morning, Matt's practice was cancelled, so he stayed home and helped Lilly build pillow houses. And then he just threw pillows at Lilly for awhile. She liked it. (Notice the wind in her hair form the force of the pillows.)Last year, Lilly & Judah made a whole bunch of new friends, thanks to the wonder that is Facebook. I reconnected with 4 friends from high school, all of which are mommies now, too. We've been having fun getting together for playdate for the past 6 or 7 months. Saturday afternoon we got to help my friend Khara celebrate her daughter's 3rd birthday at McDonalds. Happy Birthday, Abbey!
Tonight, Lilly was super excited to drink from her new twisty straw that she received in her goody bag from the party.Judah loves this jumper that another high school friend, Rachel, is letting us borrow. It has been so valuable to us! Thanks, Rach (& Lucas)!

Great pics. I love Lilly helping plow the snow.

Thanks for coming to Abbey's party! She had a great time, despite not feeling too hot. I really appreciate you guys braving the snow to celebrate with us!
