Finally.....Snow in the Desert!

As everyone knows I'm from NY where it snows in
the winter, like its suppose to.
Well this year it was the first time I wasn't
able to get home and I figure God felt sorry
for me so he made it snow just for me.





You can only imagine how
happy I was to see snow.
For once, it felt like winter.







The kids weren't the only ones who enjoyed the snow.











Sami absolutely loved playing in the snow.
She had several snow ball fights, made 3 snowmen and 1 snow angel.

Sam the Ham

Lately Sam is being such a Ham.

Everyday she cracks us up with something new.
She loves making up her own songs, singing & dancing around the house and taking silly pictures (as you can see).



She's quite talented and I would like to say she gets it all from me!
By the way, the double sunglass look is the lastest winter fashion - Hahaha














When ever she's done with one of her "performances" she always bows and says, "Thank you, thank you very much". How cute is that?

The Holidays are Here!!!

Can you believe it's that
time of the year, already.

The Sherwoods - November 2008

Pumpkin Picking

We took Sami Pumpkin Picking and she was so excited. She loved riding in the wheelbarrel with her pumpkins.

Peek-a-boo...

And later that night, Sami helped Daddy carve her pumpkin.

Cookie Baking

The kids just love to bake (and eat, of course). We tried making the cookies from scratch and although the dough wasn't the best the kids didn't seem to mind.

Yummy!!!!!

A Happy Halloween

For Sam's 3rd Halloween she got two costumes. The first was an adorable witch. She kept reminding everyone that she was a "good witch, not a bad witch".

Because it was so cold the night of Halloween she wore her Spider costume. She absolutely loved this silly costume. Go figure....

Fall is Full of Fun!

This October we took the kids apple picking. They had so much fun.


Isn't this picture great! I was freaking out the whole time. I kept telling Chris, "Don't drop my babies".






Chris' Favorite Girls!

Too cute!!!
