This week was a long one. Last weekend, we traveled to Idaho Falls to see my Grandpa who has been in the hospital now with pnemonia for over 2 weeks. We stayed for 3 days and drove home just in time for a very unseasonal snowstorm to hit. This was good and bad. Wednesday, Grandma and Grandpa Dyer came from Atlanta to celebrate Thanksgiving with us and also Christmas since we won't see them again until next year. This was the good thing about the snow - it truly was like a white Christmas for them with Thanksgiving dinner somewhere in the middle. Thanksgiving was bittersweet for me - I miss my family knowing that my Grandpa wasn't able to celebrate it like he would want. I was glad I was able to see him beforehand, however. Currently, he is getting better and hopefully will be moved out of ICU within the next couple of days.
Sloane isn't allowed to touch the ornaments so she gets around this by kissing them :)We did celebrate Christmas early with the Dyers, which was fun for Sloane to get to open some of her presents early!
Sloane's new chair!We also went the festival of trees and watched lots of football and made cookies!
Grandmas are much more patient with sugar cookies and their mess tolerance level is extremely high.)

I think Sloane ate more frosting than what actually went on the cookiesFinally, with all of the great snow, Phil and Sloane made their very first snowman! It was so cute to see them playing together out in the snow. This was a long week but we're sad that it's over. Bring on the holidays!!
