There's Addie making her own crown with George in the background

Then it was time for ice cream cake--look at Ad's pretty cake! 

...then Addie blew out the candle and made a wish! 

Here are all the party kids with their crowns! Gracie, Danny, George, Addie, Kelli, and Heidi, with Sean and Scott on the floor (It was Sean's 4th birthday that day!) 

Lastly, we opened presents! Here's Addie with Cousin Danny, Sean, Kelli, and Scotty opening her present from Scotty--high heeled Princess shoes! 

..and Addie had lots of help! That's Sean and Kelli helping Addie open her Polar Express book and CD. 

Addie is three tomorrow! She had her pink-princess party his morning with some church friends and it was a wonderful 65-minute fiesta!! We'll post more pix soon, but here she is in all her princess glory... 

Here is our house with the porch on--the roof was finished just as the first snowflake fell! 

Addie and Heidi were goofing around after naps on my bed yesterday. Here they are playing peek-a-boo with me.

"BOO!"

Here is an image of the northern lights I downloaded. I didn't take this photo, but this is the pattern I saw last night. It wasn't as green--it was rosy and light blue.
