Aidan was in heaven, he loved every minute!

These two rug rats LOVED being out in the snow
Will loved it too, and was perfectly content being pulled around in the sled

A track was made in the backyard
I'm not sure who actually started the snowball fight...

Nealy tried so hard to make a snowball
Aunt Katie, Uncle Joe and Will. Poor Lizzie fell asleep and missed the excitement!

What fun was had! We got a few good snows while we were in Michigan, and after one of them we all decided to go play outside. Nealy was disappointed that it wasn't good packing snow, which meant no snowman, but soon got over it and enjoyed all that the snow had to offer! We sledded, made snow angels, and yes, had a snowball fight! Lucky for me, I either had a baby in arms, or my very nice camera in hand, and threatened the would be snowball assailants if I got hit!

Maeve's Baptism

Beautiful Maeve
The Family, minus Gramps who was in back helping Father get things ready!

While we were in Michigan we had Maeve baptized. We were so thankful that we had some family represented at her special day. Aunt Katie is her godmother, with Gramps standing in proxy as godfather for Uncle John. Father Dan actually wanted to baptize Lizzie as well, we assured him that she was already baptised! It was a short ceremony, but this Momma is just happy her little baby has entered the Church! (Many of the pictures were borrowed from Aunt Katie and Uncle Joe's blog! Thanks!)

We had quite the gathering after Christmas this year! We took a trip back to Michigan to see the family and have Maeve baptised. Joe, Katie, and their kids Will and Lizzie were visiting as well. Between us we had 5 kids 4 and under!

Just Like Daddy




Aidan loves to be just like his dad. He got a shaving kit for Christmas and had to try it out! So cute! I love how he was still wearing his tool belt!
