It's that time of year already!

Christmas is just around the corner! Who came up with 3 major holidays all within a couple months of each other?? Crazy. Just thought I would post some pictures of us getting our Christmas tree put up.

It's already been damn cold here! We have snow on the ground from the day after Thanksgiving - just a half an inch or so. We were supposed to get 3 inches between last night and this morning, but it looks like it's running a little late... It got down to 5 degrees Thanksgiving night - and wouldn't you know it, the power went out at 2:30am! We got up and woke Maria up to come sleep downstairs as the temperature was dropping fast in her room. Luckily the power came back on at about 4:30am so we didn't all freeze :) Yesterday was probably the coldest day so far. It got down to 3 degrees and -5 with wind chill around 10am. Our weather center keeps track of the temp and wind chill and such and logs it every hour, it's pretty handy :) I put a link to our weather page on the sidebar.

Beatrice rolled over for the first time the other day! :) It's amazing how fast they grow! Every little thing they accomplish is so exciting :)
