These are a quick picture parade of what we've been doing the past few months...We've gone to the Renaissance Faire in Bristol...Lizzie finally got brave enought to get her face painted, but she screamed while the lady painted a butterfly on her cheek.
We had a lot of fun going apple picking in October at Royal Oak Farm Orchard. Lizzie and Nikki had a great time picking apples since the trees are short enough that they can both get at the apples. Lizzie followed the "twist and pull" rule very well. We also got our pumpkins as well there. We even bought apple cider donuts, apple cider sippers, and apple pie.
Lizzie celebrated her 3rd birthday with a request for a snowman cake. Auntie Pam and Daddy made it while I worked bingo. It turned out really cute until Lizzie put her fingers in it and squashed part of it, so some emergency repairs were made. Her birthday balloons spent most of their time attached to her staticy hair.
Christmas was busy as usual....lots of baking cookies and cheesecakes. Lizzie and Nikki both got Advent calendars that Pam and I made for them. They are filled with ornaments for a teeny tree.
Nikki's second quarter report card was straight A's...and she got first honors. We got it late due to the one day we had off because of super cold weather.
