Winter Pics

We've gone sledding a couple of times so far and here are some pictures to share.


Elsie put on Vern's gear. She is so cute.




This time we went to Old Main. This is also where Vern works. It is a hill on campus.


Even Gwen got in on the action.

I love my family.

More Birthday Party

Sorry about that. I am still trying to figure out all of this blogging stuff.
Anyway, back to the party...



We played pin the heart on the Tinman.



Lion Limbo.



The Horse of a Different Color race. Which was kind of like musical chairs. I found these little horses at the dollar store and they worked perfect.


And cake and ice cream at the Emerald City.

It was the first time I had ever made a cake that actually had a theme. I didn't get a picture of it but the cake inside was also rainbow colors. It was fun to make.

We all had a blast. Happy 4th Birthday to my Sweet Elsie.

Elsie's Birthday!

Well, I am finally getting around to updating my blog. We threw Elsie a little birthday party on her birthday, December 11th. It turned out pretty good. She is the biggest fan of the Wizard of Oz, so she chose that to be the theme of the party. We invited everyone to dress up as their favorite character. Elsie, of course was Dorothy, we had a lion, witch, farmer, cowboy and a princess, I was Glinda and Vern was the scarecrow. It was really cute having the kids dress up. We start out in Munchkinland and ended at the Emerald City for cake and ice cream. Along the way we played some games.


First all the children found a hiding munchkin and got a lollipop.

Then Glinda gave everyone bubbles.


Then we followed the yellow brick road downstairs were we played games.

The first was a bean bag toss (apples into a tree cut out)
