B-Rad~you are one of a kind. You are a good big sister, and a great little sister! I feel as though you should be older, you act much older than 6! We love you so much. Happy Birthday!

Feast

The snow messed up the small, early-Christmas family party we planned but we prepared our meal anyway. Just a quick, easy dinner we threw together.



Roasted Beef Tenderloin

Creamed Spinach

Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Roasted Carrots w/Thyme

Rosemary Onion Blue Cheese Rolls



"Mmmm, this is good, but..."


"I think it will be better all mixed together..."


"Let me try something..."


"Yes, that looks much better..."


"And now I have a hat. I am so smart."

Sledding with friends!
Red cheeks!
Sledding at a friends house!


Snow angels!
A view from the window!
