Random Pre-Christmas Pictures

Fifty plus carrots out of our garden...we're still eating them.  They taste much sweeter than the ones at the grocery store.
 Dustin caught some Perch and Crappie.  Time for a fish fry...ooh, so delicious!
This isn't a snowman...it's a snow giant!  Built by Lucy and her daddy!  He slowly kept leaning backwards; he was at a fourty-five degree angle for an entire week!
 Our Laurie, over at Thanksgiving and one weekend before Christmas!  Love that gurl!
 Daddy took this picture because he said he liked her shirt.  It's from Lanae and it says, I'm a Big Sister!
Ok, so I have to document this funny habit of Jarin's....he loves putting underwear on his head, particularly Lucy's.  Well, anything for that matter, towels, washcloths, but panties are number one!  Maybe he thinks it's cool?!?
 Trying on hats at Sportsman's Warehouse...Hello Davy Crockett!
 Trying on hats at Smith and Edwards....Hello Crocodile Dundee!
 More hats...I mean underwear....what a silly little boy!
 Lucy participated in a play some members of our ward put on for the Christmas party called, "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever."
Funny story about this play...Lucy at first wasn't in the play, but was playing at her friend Courtney's and due to a mishap (Dustin was in the shower, I was gone) Lucy couldn't get in and so Courtney's mom, Cindy, said Lucy could just be in the play.  Well, Lucy was a little apprehensive saying she had to ask her mom and the play director to make sure it was ok.  So when they got to the church, Cindy asked and the director looked at Lucy and asked, Can you sing?  To which she did not reply, but went straight into a bolstering solo of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star!
Lucy was the Queen in Kindergarten for a week before Christmas.  She had to do a little presentation and we decided to use a little Christmas tree with ornaments to tell the kids about herself.  We put on the tree: a book, a dancer, a frame of friends, a picture of her first birthday at a hotel in Alabama, fishing pole, soccer ball, a garland of smarties, her favorite candy(all the kids got one), an ornament of Mississippi, her birth state, and a map with the 14 states she been to, colored in!
Lucy also had to display a poster about herself in the hall all week.  We did all her favorite things: orange juice, breakfast dinner, apples, Easter, cupcakes, smarties, soccer, skirts, dance, Lagoon, zebras, carrots, sherbet, airplanes, pink & purple, Piglet's Big Movie, and of course, we put pictures on too! 
The annual gingerbread house party at the Snow's is never a disappointment with gobs of candy, yummy soup, and great company!

Ack! That's disappointing that that picture made it on here. But, I'm glad the pictures from my phone turned out so well!
