Ice Skating and Playing!

Last weekend we took the girls to Mahoney State Park to play and try out Shay's Ice Skates. Both girls had a blast. We met up with Lori and Rena there and some of their family that we also hung out with at Vala's Pumpkin Patch this last fall. There is a huge play area that you can climb in, up, around, slides and ball pits. They had a blast. We got there around 12:30 and left around 5:30. $2 a person over the age of 2 so all of us got in and played for $6!!!

Last Friday we put braids in Shay's hair and took them out on Wednesday night before i left for Minnesota. The pictures at the bottom are of her braids and then the after curls that she had waited for the whole time!!!

Christmas and New Years!

The whole family had a wonderful Christmas and New Years! The girls definately didn't go without gifts this Christmas. Shay got a dollhouse from Corey and I and loves to play with it. Jordyn also got her own dollhouse and she's able to play with that and stay out of Shay's. The butterfly tent that the girls got stays up in the living room and they both love to play and "hide" in there. The indoor trampoline gets alot of use. Within 2 days of putting it together, Shay had a fat lip because her and Jordyn were jumping together and they hit heads.

New Years we spent and the skating rink. There was an all-nighter that started 6:30 New Years Eve until 6:30 New Years Day. I worked up there while Shay ran and skated and did her thing. Corey and Jordyn came up and hung out until about 10:00 when Jordyn got tired and they went to bed. Shay got to pull the string to make the balloons drop at midnight and thought that was pretty cool. After skating, dancing, dodgeball and bingo, I convinced Shay that we HAD to go home at 2:30 am. Mom was getting tired and while Shay thought she had lots of energy left, she was slowly fading.

Christmas is almost here!

Can you believe it? Do you have your shopping done and presents wrapped? I do for the most part, a couple left to wrap!

Friday night Shay had her preschool program and I am soooo proud of my little girl! She knew almost every word to every song and they sang a lot of songs! Here's a picture of her from before the program and then a picture of her with mom and grandma that came to Elmwood for her program! Shay was very excited that they came and brought Skyler down too!



































We had a fun weekend ending with the Peterson Christmas at Grandma Jo's house! Everyone had a great time, filled their bellies and came home with leftovers!

I almost forgot to tell you "I" got a Christmas present from Brody...he's a friend of our here in Elmwood. Julie had us over for Christmas on Thursday night and I got a gift, actually two. Julie gave me a candle and Brody built me a picnic table. Ok, so really the picnic table is for the girls, my big butt doesn't fit quite as comfortably as the girls' does!
Merry Christmas Everyone!
Love, the Campbells

Birthday Party's Over and Christmas is Coming!

Ready or not, here it comes...Christmas that is! Just over a week left and I don't have quite all of my shopping done. Do you? The girls' birthday party was at the beginning of the month. We did it together and before Christmas so Shay had a chance to enjoy her birthday too so it wasn't crammed in with Christmas. It was at the Flying Wheels skating rink and the girls, along with the other kids had an amazing time! It was so much fun for everybody. Thanks to all of you that came and celebrated this day with the girls, they appreciated everything as did Corey and I!

I'm hoping to blog often so that we have a way to keep everyone updated on what's going on in our lives. Feel free to comment or email me! Have a wonderful week and hopefully I'll get to post again before Christmas:)

The girls!
