A little bit on the chilly side

This is the message I got from Dustin this morning...

The doors were frozen shut on the 4-Runner we rented. We had to sit in the car while it warmed up for like 20 minutes this morning.

He said the high was like 8 degrees today.

I miss him a ton but I am sure glad I am here in AZ!

Decorating our tree

Decorating was lots of fun this year because Kenlie could really be hands on and help with the tree. We did lose a couple of the balls but it was so much fun to watch her get excited about being able to put the balls on herself!

Here is a pic of some of the balls Kenlie put on the tree. We tried to remind her to space them out. At one time she had like 10 balls right on top of each other.

Yummy Biscuits

Kenlie loves to help out whenever I let her and I decided she could help make some biscuits with me the other night. I gave her some extra dough and that just made her night.

Here is her biscuit!

Richins Christmas Party

Kenlie was very afraid of Santa this year. Even though she was bawling I still think this picture is very cute.

Kenlie had a blast playing with her cousins in the back yard.

Kenlie is going to be a trend setter I guess, her necklace is made of a rubber snake she loved and was very protective over.

Fun at the Park

Pearly Whites

Kenlie had her first dental appointment today. I was pretty anxious about it all because dental work just makes me nervous even though I have an awesome dentist. So we are sitting there in the lobby and Kenlie is having a blast with all the toys. I hear a kid screaming in the back and I start to panic. I was about ready to walk out the door I was getting so nervous. Kenlie was off in her own world though so it obviously didn't bother her.

So we got called back... I didn't get any pics at the office because she was a little shy about them wanting to count her teeth and stuff. They let her wear some really cute Dora sunglasses while they looked at her teeth which she loved! They ended up having me sit on the chair and then Kenlie sat on my lap. She did great though once she got comfortable with them. They counted her teeth and polished them real nice. The dentist came in and did his thing and then Kenlie got a new toothbrush and a bunch of other goodies. They also gave her a fish with her name on it to put in for a drawing since she didn't have any cavities.
