Yes, she lost yet another tooth. We’ll have to pulverize her Thanksgiving dinner in a blender.

belting out “Can’t Buy Me Love,” while loading the dishwasher.

But I think I’ll spare you a photo of a beheaded Barbie on a guillotine for Stefan’s French Revolution diorama– that’s just disturbing.

    I just love… this post. That toothy smile, thanksgiving dinner in a blender, pajamas for shoveling. Looks like you had a fun snow day!

    Such a perfect family snowy afternoon. That snowman almost looked pink with her girly girl touch!

    Wow – it is so foreign seeing snow as a backyard occurrence!

    You have a knack, a gift, for recognising and catching those moments… thanks for sharing =)

    I love all these pictures! My mom made my sis take our little brother on dates sometimes as a chaperone. He mixed up the words and told her how much he enjoyed being her sasquatch.

    I’d love to have Xander as a sasquatch any day!

    The mini me outfit was perfect… loved the shoes especially! And, now I really want Mary’s boots. Sooo cute! I know every family has their moments, but you sure do a great job of capturing the happy ones. Your blog is a keepsake. Your family is a blessing.

    Happy Thanksgiving!!

    I just love that your family is here. It may sound funny but I feel like my house has a more tangible peace the more it fills up with good people.
