Not Happy Bob!

So they finally decided to sand our picture perfect sledding hill! Matt was infuriated, to say the least, as well as some of the other neighborhood dads!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

The Bayley family loves snow!

Hats

I am the type of person that likes a good hat. While we were in the San Juans for Thanksgiving I found one that I LOVE!!!!!! Merry Christmas to me!

I'm Back!

Life has been full and fun! Though the more full life is the less blogging/picture taking goes on! I will do my best to fill you in. Calah is playing basketball and loving it! Many of you know that I played basketball for a number of years and I really hope Calah sticks with it. Going to her games reminds me of high school, in a good way :). Also this year I made cinnamon ornaments for our ladies tea at church. Our house has been smelling festive for weeks! All of our girls are enjoying awana (reminding me of my childhood again), Charis especially loves being a 'Puggle' because now she gets to be included in the fun too! (Mom and Dad like having a free Monday date night!) Matt has been away and busy with various conferences and preparing/studying for sermons and seminary classes. Ellie has been working hard at school and missing her friends when school is canceled.

Halloween

The girls had a great time on Halloween day! It was conference week so Ellie had no school and Calah had a half day. Calah was a bride, Ellie was Barbie Island Princess, and Charis made a very cute Barney. (You should hear her Barney impression-hilarious!) They all got dressed up, with make-up, and went trick-or-treating at the mall during the rainy afternoon. Had a quick pizza dinner and went out for more candy since the rain stopped. Unfourtunately I got the stomach yucks and spent the day in bed! Thankfuly Matt took over picture duty so I have these to share! (two days later Charis got the 'yucks'-that is what she calles it).

All Dressed Up!

Calah and Ellie have been so excited for months now to go to their first wedding! They wore their fancy Christmas dresses and curled up their hair. Both were especially good at the ceremony and didn't complain or be loud or anything. Angels! When Scott announced 'you may now kiss the bride' Calah said 'gross' and hid while Ellie perked up and said 'look mommy, kissing!' At the reception the girls met up with several of their church friends and played, ate, and danced to their hearts content. On the way home Ellie asked if they were now allowed to go to every wedding-We'll see.

Kindergarten Field Trip

Today was Ellie's first fieldtrip and she was so excitied. She got to pet the goats, feed the pigs, lear how garden veggies grow, but the most exciting part was riding the school bus!
