It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....

Time to get in the spirit. We did our annual Chrsitmas trip again this year. We were blessed with great weather.
We went this year with our WHOLE family~ my mom, dad, brothers, sisters-in-law, and niece. We all stayed in a little cozy cabin. Christmas jammies were put on for the first time of the season. Here we were having a little morning fun in our room...because no one else was up yet. Our kids got up at 5:30am in anticipation for the fun day ahead. Grrr....I know someday I will be dragging them out of bed, but it sure does stink to get up EARLIER on vacation than a regular work day.
Morning fun with their little cousin.
Letter writing...
SANTA! Everyone cooperated and was so excited to visit him. The lttle guy changed his mind a few times about what to ask him for. I think the end result was that he wanted a "new jeep" and she wanted a "stuffed animal and Barbi." Not sure how Santa's going to get a new jeep down our chimney but he better get to figuring it out. The three of them got lots of "awe's" from the crowd while sitting up there. It's pretty hard not to awe at a smiling baby on Santa's lap.
Rock Star Award for the weekend. He went on tons of "scary" rides. He never said no to any suggested ride. He even out did his bigger sister. Yay Buddy!

Happy Halloween

So many Halloween festivities that we enjoy....pumpkin patch, pumpkin carving, and trick or treating with good friends.

TRICK OR TREAT!
His pumpkin was too heavy to lift so he rolled it to the wagon. :)
