i've been waiting for a day like this. this whole weekend definitely would be in my top 5 weekends ever (that i can remember ;)


derek was home saturday because of the snow-Yay! here diedre made her first snow angel.

we went out to brunch at our fav breakfast place and then off to the tree farm which we found out friend's from church own!

a lady from church offered to take our family picture. tis a bit of an action shot because diedre was hitting snow off the branches.

ezekiel fit nicely into his 18 month snowsuit (a lovely hand-me-down from a caregroup friend)

could diedre look any cute? those rosy cheeks? focused mischievousness? i love it!

this farm offers cookies and roast-yer-own hotdogs for a donation to the Union Gospel Mission. diedre looks so old here!!!

we were advised to let the tree thaw out for the day and then decorate it tomorrow. i wanted to rush it a bit, so we let it thaw for 5-6 hours then brought it upstairs. by the time the lights were up, it was 10pm and i thought the kids better just go to bed and we can decorate on sunday morning.
