Photo Shoot with Madison

Madison put her cute hat on and I could not resist taking a picture of her and then she asked me to join in on the fun!!!! So then we had our own mini photo shoot! Gotta love her! 

This weekend!

Weekend Fun!
Friday: TJ and I got to go out with other adults and have fun laughs and food. Sami came over to watch the girls and their cousins came over to play! Thanks Sam!!!

Look how OLD she looks here! My beautiful girl! 

Avery was holding Felicity's hand but she does NOT like camera flashes. She thinks it's funny to cover her eyes. What a goofball! 

The three best friends ;-)

Saturday: We left early to head to my parents house because TJ was going to go ice fishing with my dad and brother. After breakfast they decided it was a bit too cold and windy....maybe a different weekend. TJ, Brent, Dad and the girls went for a fun trip to Cabelas. My mom and I stayed back and hung out. I decided I needed a change and chopped my hair off. I made an appointment for Saturday while we were at my parents.  I cut about 7 inches and still getting used to the new do but loving it. After naps TJ and I took the girls shopping in Woodbury and got pizza for dinner. All in a all a busy but fun day.

Before things got hairy...hahahaha! 

Just a small amount of hair cut off to get the color going! 

The color process

1 1/2 hours of beautifying = Finished Product! 

Sunday: I got to go to Target all by myself...I KNOW...that is a big deal and I enjoyed every second of it. I do love my little shoppers but every once in a while it is nice to be able to go slowly and take my time. After a little grocery shopping we decided to use one of our gift cards and head to Red Robin for lunch. That was a fun and delicious time. We have been talking about getting new furniture for a while and decided to just go and look. We love our couch but it is just so big for our living room. MAN, do I love looking for new furniture...I could have spent a fortune. After a nice homemade stuffed shell dinner we had fun watching the Golden Globes!

Lunch at Red Robin

Just hanging out lately!

Just hanging around the house! The girls and I can't wait for warmer weather so we can do things outside and go places with out freezing! 

Avery playing princesses in the dragon castle! 

 Here is more of the awesome bear puzzles! 

 Madison needed a 'dress' to dance! 

Posing for the camera! 

Bear Puzzle is a hit in our house!

The girls got a bear puzzle for a Christmas and they LOVE it! They get to pick out the head, shirt and pants and can mix and match it...huge hit! 

Pure concentration :-)

Please leave me alone while I make my bear :-)

SOLD

We finally got to take a picture with our sold sign with our house. It only took 3 1/2 weeks after we moved in but we finally got it on Christmas Day. 

Christmas 2012

Hope everyone has had a great Christmas! We had a fantastic Christmas this year as we got to celebrate it in our own home! We got to celebrate with my dad's side of the family on Christmas Eve and then had TJ's family over at our house on Christmas Day. We were so blessed to celebrate with family and to have fun games, food and great company! We are so lucky to have great family.

The girls as always were very spoiled and they were so excited with everything they got. They have been sooooo busy playing with all their fun toys. I had to take out older toys in their toy room to make room for all their new stuff.

We are also wishing a great holiday season to all of family outside of MN. I am also sending big prayers to my cousin Chris to make a recovery in 2013.

Here are some pictures from the Christmas celebrations :-)

Winter 2012 with the Kvilhaug's

We have been quite busy in the Kvilhaug household!

We recently purchased our home and are loving it and making it our own. It was a great purchase and was pretty much move in ready and I loved that! Thanks to my parents for letting us stay for a couple months while the three month process of purchasing a short sale home took place. It was worth the wait!!! The girls are still staying in the same room together as they prefer that. The other spare room is used as a toy room...I had to filter out toys because they have SOOOOOO much! Here are a few pictures I took a couple weeks ago! There are more pictures to take but haven't got around to do that but I will soon!


Here is the back mudroom!!!



Our bathroom...eventually will be replacing the tile but it works for now!!!


The view of our living room from the kitchen! There is a nice large front sun room (where the tree is)!!!

Our fabulous small lovely kitchen! 

The girls are loving playing in the snow with with their snow gear!

They both did fantastic visiting Santa! We were so proud of them! I thought for sure there was going to be a freak out but they were calm and told him what they wanted.

 


Now that we moved, Madison will be starting her new preschool on Jan 2nd. This is the school that she will attend for when she is ready for Kindergarden so it is great! We took a tour a couple weeks ago and she loved it. I hope it goes well since she is starting in the middle of the year.

The girls are loving the Christmas season. They had fun helping daddy put up the tree, talking to Sophie the Elf that visits everyday ;-), making cookies, painting holiday pictures and asking for new santa gifts everyday!

  We are excited for the upcoming year and hope your holiday season is filled with joy, friends, love and faith. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and Happy New Years from the Kvilhaugs!!!!!

Yes...if you are wondering the W on the card is supposed to be a K but I didn't even notice this when I was ordering the card! What a dumbo head :-) TJ said the W will stand for 'Well Wishes'...hahaha!
