What's more fun than a movie night?

Movie night with make your own ice cream sundaes!  So much fun and soooo yummy!

Petite Picassos...

They all love to color and paint so they were so excited  to show us what they accomplished in Art class this fall.  The little artists made these fabulous scratch art pictures and they were so proud to tell us all about what their pictures were of.

Matthew drew a picture of Mommy and Matt.  The M stands for Matt and the K for Kari.  All the shapes were kites that we were flying in the summer time.

Aubrey drew a picture of our whole family and all the hearts mean that we all love each other.  We are taking a walk outside in the sun.

Cameron drew a picture of Mommy and Cameron and Callie.  We were at our house getting ready to read a book.

Brady drew a picture of Daddy, Callie and Brady taking a walk out in the sunshine climbing on rocks and hills.

They also brought home pictures they drew of Magical Birds...

Do you wanna build a snowman?

The fab four were so excited to FINALLY have snow that was just perfect for snowman building.  They convinced Daddy to make some snow reindeer and make them all silly colored. Once the snowmen were done Brady and Matthew ran in to get some hot cocoa and Aubrey and Cameron insisted on a photo op.

2014 Year in Review...

This year has gone by just as fast as each of the others.  I cannot say that I am sad to see 2014 come to a close but I am looking forward to all that 2015 has to offer.

January 2014 - We took a trip to Connecticut for the first birthday of our twin cousins Addison and Ashton.  Had a play date with some cute triplets and their older brother.  They began to remember their sleep stories aka dreams!

February 2014 - Daddy and Aubrey had their annual date to the ball while Mommy and the boys headed out for a date to Chutter's.  The fabulous foursome enjoyed their very first ice fishing trip with Daddy,

March 2014 - We went to a bowling party and Aubrey broke 2 of her fingers.  The Leprechaun came and sprinkled the house in green.  Cameron discovered the art of devising a plan and having his siblings carry it out for him.

April 2014 - We took a trip to Boston to visit Bumpa and pay a visit to the NICU.  It was so nice to see the nurses who took such good care of our babies and to fill them in on the adventures of the past 4 years.  The fab four participated in an egg hunt and Cameron was the finder of the golden egg and won a prize!  The Easter Bunny made his yearly trip.

May 2014 - We started the month with a fun day at the Fairbanks Museum playing with all the experiments and watching the planetarium show.  Another year of T-ball began and the bittersweet moment of Kindergarten registration was here.  Mom and Dad enjoyed a trip to Greece and the annual quad mom trip took place in Boston. We finished up the month with a trip to Connecticut for a visit with Great Grandpa Reynolds.

June 2014 - Aubrey lost her first tooth!  We spent a weekend with the MacLeod Crowd just hanging out and enjoying time with our quad friends.  Kindergarten step up day was a success for the foursome and they rocked their very first dance recital!

July 2014 - We spent many days using our Story Land Season passes and enjoying the long summer days.

August 2014 - Brady had his hernia removed and had a tough time staying down for 3 days.  The MacLeods came to the north country and we showed them the sites.  We went hiking with Bumpa and took a trip to Disney World all before the first day of school.

September 2014 - Another fun year at the Lancaster Fair!  The fab four turned the big number 5!!!!  They had their first open house at school and were so proud to show off the classroom.

October 2014 - The quads got their first ride on Daddy's motorcycle.  We took our annual trip to Windy Ridge to do some apple picking.  It was a huge month for Brady as he lost his first tooth and was awarded Student of the Month!

November 2014 - Dance classes began again and the kiddos wrote letters to Santa all on their own!  Thanksgiving reminded us of all we have to be thankful for and we spent our first night at Papa's camp.

December 2014 - Matthew underwent surgery for adenoid removal and ear tubes and was a trooper! Jingle B helped keep the kids in line and they performed at their first Winter Concert.  Christmas season was fun filled and crazy busy.

Christmas Day 2014

It was a Merry Christmas for all of us.  The day was perfect, relaxed and Brady summed it up best by saying "The best part is spending time with my family."

Matthew had been up at 12am, 1am and 4am asking if Santa had came yet.  So when the other three decided to wake at 5:30 he was sound asleep.  They were very patient snuggling in bed with mom and dad until Matthew wished us all a Merry Christmas over the monitor at 6:30.  They couldn't wait to get down stairs.

A quick visit with their friend Bill before Christmas lunch at Grammie and Papa Amadon's then home for dinner with Bumpa, Memere, uncles and all their cousins.
