I am so WAY behind in blogging…but give me 5 Snow Days in a row and I am all over it . Here is a catch up of things that have been happening from WAY back in September until now… 1.   2010 December – Misc. 2.  Ukulele Girl 3.  SNOW DAY(s)!!! 4.  Christmas 2010 5.  Ashley’s [...]

The holidays are always a very busy time…so much going on…but also a magical time. Here are some of our goings on during all of that craziness.

Megan wanted a ukulele for Christmas.  She got one…and has already learned how to play it.  She has learned a couple of songs so far…check it out.  (She has become quite the animated entertainer).
