Gotta love these girls

Brandon called me this morning and said he was on his way home. The stomach bug has hit him. It seems that this family can never be free of being sick. As soon as we all get over something, someone comes down with something different.
So he has been sleeping all day. He came down stairs for a bit this afternoon. The girls love to cuddle, so when they saw a certain Daddy sitting on the couch all alone they thought perfect. So before Brandon knew what hit him he had his three beautiful girls sitting all over him. There is nothing better than that to make a Daddy feel better. Well at least for a little while. They were soon all told to find a new seat so Daddy could lay down and sleep some more. Poor guy.

You will also see in this picture Abby and Audrey’s hair dues. I took them in to get long over due hair cuts and the lady styled their hair so CUTE!!! They had a blast, and even got to have a sucker afterwards. Pretty soon its going to be time to bring little Anna in for her first hair cut. It’s going to be so hard to cut her little ringlets.


Our New Friends

We have been seeing a family of deer in our yard lately. They started showing up about a month or so ago. I think there is a mother with two young ones. We all love to watch them, but usually we only get a glimpse before they dart of into the trees. There is something about everyone in our family running to the windows to catch a glimpse that scares them.
Today we were lucky. They must be getting used to seeing us stare at them, because today they stuck around for a bit. They are gorgeous animals. I know I don’t want them hanging out around the house, because they will eat all of my plants once spring arrives, but I still love to see them.
So anyway, here are a few pictures of our new friends. Note the snow. We are supposed to get a total of nine inches by Saturday.
